Orca Interactive helps deploy Irish IPTV service

Orca Interactive, a provider of applications for TV over IP, has been selected by Dublin-based Magnet Networks, to deploy Ireland’s triple-play services over an Internet Protocol network.

Nordic system integrator Industria has provided a turnkey IPTV service solution to deploy a fiber network in the Dublin area to provide high-speed Internet, digital telephony, TV and VOD. The initial service included a variety of digital TV channels, an electronic program guide (EPG) and VOD. A second phase of the project, recently completed, offers more content, as well as a new user-interface experience and video games.

In addition to its RiGHTv software, Orca Interactive also provided the video server, encoder and content protection for the deployment.

Orca's RiGHTv applications facilitate the deployment of iTV services. RiGHTv XVOD allows operators to supply subscribers with video content on demand and to incorporate advertisements and t-commerce features in an interactive TV service. RiGHTv XBIP enables operators to create and manage broadcast TV and NVOD channels over broadband networks. RiGHTv XPVR for PVR services allows subscribers to view programs at any time by ordering a recording directly from their EPGs and watch it on demand at a later time.
