Platform enables 'TV everywhere'

As 'TV everywhere' becomes more pervasive, Comcast says it's looking to make its On Demand Online service available by the middle of December, according to FierceOnlineVideo

The complexity of authentication and authorisation for programming networks with content appearing on multiple service providers has been a major point of focus for companies on the front lines of the push.

Comcast's white-label OVP and content management subsidiary, thePlatform, is introducing a new suite of tools for programmers who want 'TV everywhere' capabilities on their Web sites. For those companies, the key is not so much getting their content delivered, as it is making certain they receive the payments they're entitled to, and that their media rights remain intact.

When integrated with DocuShare, Caringo's product, Castor, will allow archived content across storage systems to be unified in one storage pool; giving companies improved access and more efficient use of storage resources.
