Next generation service delivers a personalized
viewing experience, seamless functionality across devices and a
voice remote that searches across multiple sources at once
Atlantic Broadband, the nation’s 9th largest cable operator,
today announced that it has launched the new TiVo Experience 4
combined with IP-based Video On Demand (VOD). The entertainment
platform features a new, modern user interface with intuitive
navigation and enhanced functionality, hyper-personalized viewing
recommendations and an easy-to-use remote, offering conversational
voice control.
Within TiVo Experience 4, the on-screen user interface has been
completely redesigned with a modern, sleek, horizontal navigation
system that is highly appealing. Cutting-edge technology delivers
personalized, tailored programming recommendations, so customers
will be able to find what they want to watch quickly and
easily.
The new voice remote, a key element of the platform upgrade,
takes search and discovery to a new level, providing fast,
highly-accurate results of searched-for programs, even when only
part of a title or a key word is spoken. With the voice remote,
customers say what they want to watch and view it instantly.
Content also is searchable across multiple sources, including
live TV, DVR recordings, on-demand and OTT apps, including Netflix.
TiVo Experience 4 also allows customers to access content on
multiple screens—across TVs, smartphones, tablets and more—both
in-home and on-the-go.
Other notable features include:
- SmartBarTM – A new search
feature connects customers to what they are most likely to watch at
a given time of day or day of the week.
- My Shows List – Contains
categories that help customers quickly locate their favorite shows
and recordings. With this feature, customers can highlight a
category such as “Kids” to view only kids’ shows. This can be
personalized and saved for even easier browsing.
- QuickView™ - Gives customers a
sneak-peak at their favorite channels, other tuners, the SmartBar
or a mini-guide that lets customers browse the program guide one
channel at a time – all without leaving full-screen TV.
“The new experience is not only visually beautiful, but will
transform the TV experience for our customers,” said Heather
McCallion, Vice President of Products and Programming for Atlantic
Broadband. “Sophisticated, advanced technology powers the new
interface, but it’s amazingly simple to use and will make it easier
for customers to find and enjoy the shows they love to watch. We
are pleased to bring this major product enhancement to Atlantic
Broadband’s markets as we continue to innovate on behalf of the
customers we serve.”
“Consumers today have access to more TV content than ever
before, but finding it requires multiple devices and varying
content sources. TiVo Experience 4 brings it all together and gets
you to your favorite shows faster than ever before, while learning
what you like to watch,” said Michael Hawkey, Senior Vice President
and General Manager, User Experience, TiVo. “Combined with a
visually-rich onscreen user experience, TiVo Experience 4 provides
an intuitive and powerful entertainment experience that we’re sure
Atlantic Broadband customers will love.”
In conjunction with the launch of TiVo Experience 4, Atlantic
Broadband has introduced a new, IP-based Video On Demand platform
powered by SeaChange®. The IP (or Internet-based) platform
substantially increases the number of on-demand choices, while
quickly and efficiently delivering the content to customers on the
viewing device of their choice.
“We are proud that our cBridge™ Adrenalin solution is an
integral element of Atlantic Broadband’s innovative platform,” said
Mark Tubinis, Senior Vice President of Strategy at SeaChange.
“Atlantic Broadband’s multi-vendor integration and focus on
personalization are in complete alignment with our open,
personalized vision for video’s future.”
TiVo Experience 4 and IP VOD enhancements will launch this week
in Atlantic Broadband’s Connecticut, New Hampshire and Maine
service areas, and in its other markets by year’s end.
