2 Personal TV Solution Briefing Personal TV is an innovative and feature rich endto-end solution that enables operators and service providers to meet the challenges of evolving media consumption and consumer behavior by delivering video and other content seamlessly to pay-tv platforms, multi-device and OTT deployments. The Evolving TV Landscape The TV industry is going through a period of dramatic transformation and across all generations viewers are enjoying new trends. Whether it s VOD binge-viewing on TVs and PCs, watching short-form mobile content on the go, or using second screen companion apps to enhance the viewing experience the world of TV is changing. By 2020, this evolving TV landscape will be serving 8 billion broadband subscriptions and 1.5 billion digital television homes within a market worth $750 billion a year. Today s always/everywhere attitude means service providers are fighting to offer a range of live, on-demand and catchup TV services across an evergrowing number of devices. The new ecosystem of smart devices and TV software also means that operators and service providers are looking for new monetization possibilities, such as ad-insertion and geographic targeting. New technologies are also evolving to support TV service providers. The cloud is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to on-premise, offering increased operational flexibility, scalability and efficiencies to help companies reduce costs, increase revenues and drive profitability. One of the biggest challenges in delivering TV always/everywhere is overcoming the complexity of the different devices available today

3 Overcoming the Challenges of Personal TV As they seek to address this changing landscape, operators and service providers are faced with increasingly complex infrastructure requirements, often coupled with legacy technology and a lack of in-house skills and resource. One of the biggest challenges in delivering TV always/everywhere is overcoming the complexity of the different devices available today and ensuring seamless TV delivery across these screens. Not only must service providers deliver content in high quality across devices with different screen sizes and in resolutions up to 4K, they must also cope with the different operating systems and security processes to ensure a continuous service is delivered as viewers move between set-top boxes, TVs, tablets and smartphones. That also means providing a consistent user experience across ADB delivers a solution that maximizes customer satisfaction, helps increase revenues, manage costs and deliver profitable growth multiple devices. Viewers will expect the same UX regardless of whether they are watching content on a TV, laptop, tablet or smartphone. With the huge level of competition from disruptive OTT-VOD providers, delivering a compelling experience is critical for success. Focusing on developing new revenue streams and positively impacting key performance indicators like ARPU, lifetime value and churn is also a key challenge. Operators and service providers will need a full package of fully integrated applications like content recommendations, search and discovery, ad-insertion and advertising enablement. However, in order to thrive in the competitive TV landscape, service providers need to ensure they reduce their operational costs while providing enhanced services. This means having the flexibility to deliver traditional freeto-air and support advertising, subscription, PPV, as well as a growing number of innovative hybrid business models.
