WISI Unveils Multi-TV Video Solution for Commercial Spaces
In a significant advancement for the commercial video market, WISI, a prominent name in video and broadband technology, has announced the rollout of its Multi-TV Video Solution. This innovative system aims to tackle the common issue of unsynchronized video playback across multiple screens in commercial settings like sports bars, restaurants, stadiums, and corporate offices.
Addressing the Playback Challenge
For years, establishments that rely on multiple television screens to provide a seamless viewing experience have faced challenges with inconsistent playback timing. WISI's new solution directly addresses this issue by converting adaptive bitrate (ABR) streams into multicast IP or QAM signals. This process ensures that all screens display the same frame simultaneously, allowing guests to enjoy an uninterrupted and coordinated viewing experience.
"This solution is purpose-built for commercial venues where video is central to the customer experience," stated Sharen Sandhu, WISI's VP of Product. By eliminating playback delays, the Multi-TV Video Solution enhances patrons' experiences while simplifying operations for staff.
Key Features of the Multi-TV Video Solution
The Multi-TV Video Solution comes packed with several standout features:
- - Perfectly Synced Playback: The technology ensures frame-accurate synchronization by converting ABR streams, providing consistent viewing for audiences.
- - Mobile App Control: Operators can manage TV content directly from mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, eliminating the need for cumbersome remote controls.
- - Active Channel Streaming (ACS): This feature allows for streaming only the channels that are actively being watched, optimizing bandwidth usage and improving video quality.
- - End-to-End Content Protection: WISI's solution allows for bulk decryption of Widevine at the gateway, with flexible options to re-encrypt content to formats like ProIdiom or AES-128.
- - Centralized Management: The system includes tools for remote monitoring and API-based controls, thus streamlining operations and reducing the need for onsite technical support.
Compatibility and Deployment
WISI’s Multi-TV Video Solution has been designed to integrate seamlessly with existing coax or IP infrastructures. This compatibility means that regardless of the venue size, whether a cozy sports bar or a vast stadium, operators can deliver synchronized and secure video without the need for extensive network overhauls. Furthermore, the solution accommodates various deployment models to suit different budgetary needs.
Upcoming Live Demonstration
WISI will showcase the Multi-TV Video Solution at the upcoming SCTE TechExpo in Washington, D.C. Attendees are invited to experience firsthand how the system operates in delivering synchronized playback and centralized management across multiple screens. Team WISI will be located at booth #H1060, offering live demonstrations and insights into this groundbreaking technology.
