A UNIFIED ARCHITECTURE FOR LINEAR AND OTT VIDEO DELIVERY
Staying competitive is tough in today’s ever-evolving media landscape. Linear content delivery is still important, but now consumers control what they watch and when they watch it. And they’re demanding access on an ever-growing range of devices from smartphones to tablets to Internet TV.
For traditional broadcasters, adapting to multi-screen and multi-platform delivery can be costly, bandwidth-intensive, and difficult to monetize. Plus, a whole new generation of pure-play OTT providers are turning up the competitive pressure.
No one knows these challenges better than Thomson Video Networks. Our advanced video compression and content delivery solutions have driven the digital television revolution forward by helping customers provide a premium viewing experience. Now, we’re leveraging the latest compression technology to enable an all-encompassing video infrastructure for traditional as well as new-media broadcasters and pay-TV operators.

A VERSATILE COMPRESSION INFRASTRUCTURE
HYBRID ENCODING FOR MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY
In today’s media environments, video compression resources may be running on physical hardware appliances, virtual servers, or in the cloud. Behind Every Screen is a hybrid approach that offers the best of all worlds. We combine video-optimized hardware solutions with software-based encoding that runs on lower-cost and generic physical servers, virtualized servers and a cloud
infrastructure. The result? Network operators benefit from the advantages of virtualization and cloud computing without having to compromise on quality of service, SLAs, video quality, and any of their other critical operational standards. Plus, they’re able to choose the mix of cloud or on-premise technologies that are most appropriate for a given project or service.
At Thomson Video Networks, we know that modern live broadcast infrastructures must provide seamless support for many different codecs, networks, and devices. But this requires much more than simply adding OTT capabilities to a traditional linear broadcast subsystem. Behind Every Screen™ is a comprehensive approach that combines premium encoding capabilities with high-density transcoding for turnaround services. Behind Every Screen enables a compression infrastructure that meets these critical requirements:
» Flexibility to transcode and deliver OTT and IPTV services to a constantly evolving ecosystem of devices and applications in all necessary output formats including high-efficiency video coding (HEVC)
» Continued high-quality delivery for traditional broadcasts over cable, DTH, and DTTV
» High-performance compression, multiplexing, and ad insertion; premium encoding capabilities; and high-density transcoding
» A transcoding workflow that can be adapted easily by adding ABR encoding profiles, adding or removing channels as required, changing resolutions, or upgrading to new and emerging codecs
» Robust channel processing capabilities for branding, ad insertion, and audio management including loudness control

SEAMLESS COMPRESSION BEHIND EVERY SCREEN
Central to Behind Every Screen is the MediaFlexSUITE, Thomson Video Networks’ unified service operation and management software suite. The MediaFlexSUITE provides a software layer to facilitate overall service configuration, scheduling, and monitoring. This enables a greatly simplified operation in which branding and compression resources can be allocated based on priorities for deployment speed, video quality requirements, bandwidth optimization, and content customization.
For pristine video quality, Thomson Video Networks provides the ViBE EM4000 premium SD/HD encoding system, and the ViBE VS7000 software system enables top-quality multi-screen, OTT, IPTV, and cloud-based deployments.
The ViBE XT1000 high-density transcoder delivers the ideal compromise of cost and compression performance in live channel lineups. For contribution applications, the ViBE CP6000 enables cloud-friendly deployments and the Sapphire MPEG server supports branding operations with distributed ad insertion and regionalization. Working together, these technologies offer every key capability broadcasters need for profitable and convergent multi-platform video delivery – while maintaining the core linear operation.
