Antenna Hungaria Expands Online TV Through MediaClass Platform
Telco and media services company Antenna Hungaria has expanded its online TV service through an OTT and IPTV platform from mediaClass, a subsidiary of UK broadcast technology provider Azdio.
The platform allows Antenna Hungária to make its mindigTV Go online TV service available on a wide range of devices in Hungary, including LG and Samsung smart TVs manufactured after 2018, giving viewers access to 14 live TV channels and over 300 stock concerts free of charge.
This follows Antenna Hungaria's launch of a digital terrestrial television (DTT) service in partnership with mediaClass during Q4 2020, involving the latter’s SwiftClass set top box software supporting 50 fps HD viewing on low-cost Linux STBs with upwards of 128 MB RAM. The new online service is likewise supported by a full electronic program guide and includes seven-day catch-up TV.
Antenna Hungária provides national terrestrial television and radio broadcasting, as well as wireless business telecommunications, just recently expanding into OTT.
MediaClass is a product division of Azdio, which offers IPTV/OTT multi-screen infrastructure designed for any size of deployment, with multi-DRM, OSS/BSS integration, advanced CMS, content provisioning, VOD management, DVR and multi-tenant capabilities. Client software includes superfast IP and hybrid STB software based on Linux and Android, as well as mobile clients for iOS and Android devices.
