June, SeaChange International will demonstrate software that it says is giving rise to the global multi-screen television phenomenon and its emerging “blended entertainment services” trend toward incorporating OTT content.

    gateway-enabled multi-device media sharing throughout the home;
    cloud-based video streaming to iPads and other IP connected devices;
    on-demand services delivered through OTT streaming players;
    content offers and promotions that increase subscriber uptake;
    Video and interactive banner advertising tailored for every screen.

    SeaChange Adrenalin and Nitro – the multi-screen video platform that‘s enabling operators of every size to deliver streaming video experiences and promotional packages to settops, iPads, smartphones, OTT players and other IP connected devices.
