Mirada to deploy Iris multiscreen solution for Plataforma
Multimedia de Operadores in Spain
Mirada plc (AIM: MIRA), a leading provider of integrated
software solutions for Digital TV operators and broadcasters, is
delighted to announce it has won a new customer in Spain. Mirada
has started working for Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores for the
development of its new OTT-based TV platform. Plataforma Multimedia
de Operadores (the "Customer", the "Operator") is a new Spanish OTT
enabler whose main shareholder is Procono S.A.U., and with
secondary shareholders Opencable, ACUTEL and AOTEC.
The Customer is planning for Mirada to deploy a purely OTT
solution across the Customer's network to deliver content with a
cutting-edge viewing experience to subscribers via Android set-top
boxes, smartphones, tablets, laptops and smart TVs, and a purchase
order to commence deployment has been received by Mirada. Once
launched, the Customer's subscribers will enjoy all the advanced
features of Mirada's Iris multiscreen technology, including unique
tools for content discovery, personal recommendations, session
transfer, cloud DVR and much more. The Customer, Plataforma
Multimedia de Operadores, expects the commercial launch of this
project to take place during Q1 2020 and to reach at least 600,000
subscribers eventually.
With Mirada's new Iris launcher for Android TV Operator Tier,
Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores will reap the benefits of
providing all the features of the Iris multiscreen technology while
also providing easy access for its subscribers to all the benefits
of the Android environment and easy access to third-party apps
available in the Google Play Store.
This project is in line with Mirada's Bring-your-own-device
("BYOD") strategy, which focuses on providing the Company's Iris
multiscreen technology across all major consumer electronics
devices to serve the ever-increasing demand for content on all
platforms.
Amelia Carrillo, CEO of Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores,
commented: "For Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores shareholders,
this project is totally strategic. We understand that with Mirada
our subscribers are able to enjoy the best television experience
available on the market, making the most of the TV content, with
advanced features as catch-up, start-over, timeshift, VOD, NPVR,
etc. and adding the content of the most important Streaming
Platforms, and customer's preferences, in one single recommendation
system. We are sure that Mirada's solution is the key factor to
become the fourth TV platform in Spain, unifying the historic cable
industry under the same brand."
Jose Luis Va zquez, CEO of Mirada plc, commented: "We're
delighted to announce our latest project, this time with the
Spanish operator, Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores. It's
fantastic to see another company opt for our acclaimed Iris
technology and also to see such interest in our solution for
Android TV Operator Tier which we launched only recently. We are
looking forward to working with our fellow Spanish company,
Plataforma Multimedia de Operadores, and seeing what this great new
partnership will bring for both parties."
