Mirada plc
("Mirada" or the "Company")
Commercial launch of new Android TV solution for izzi
Mirada (AIM: MIRA), a leading provider of integrated software
solutions for Digital TV operators and broadcasters, is delighted
to announce the commercial launch of its Android TV Operator Tier
with custom launcher for Mexican operator, izzi.
This is expected to be one of the most relevant deployments of
Android TV worldwide, resulting from a close collaboration between
izzi, Google and Mirada.
This launch is the extension of izzi's pay TV service from Linux
set-top boxes, smartphones, tablets and laptops to highly
sought-after Android TV hybrid set-top boxes. The service is based
on Mirada's Iris solution rather than Google's generic user
interface such that izzi's brand identity and the subscribers'
viewing experience remains the same. It also enriches the default
Android TV experience with premium functionalities of Mirada's Iris
solution.
Thanks to Mirada's custom-made TV input service API, this is the
first ever launch of Android TV for an operator which uses hybrid
Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) / Over the Top (OTT) set-top boxes
to provide a TV service through its cable infrastructure. Android
TV-based set-top boxes with Mirada's software will be
commercialised by izzi as a new premium product branded izzitv
smart.
Through Mirada's custom launcher for the Android TV Operator
Tier, izzi ' s subscribers will be able to enjoy live and on-demand
content with all the advanced features of Iris, in addition to the
advantages that come with the Android environment, including access
to Google Play Store, applications such as Netflix and YouTube and
the built-in Chromecast digital media player.
For this project, Mirada has partnered with Google for Android
TV integration, Verimatrix for conditional access and new premium
set-top box manufacturers, including Skyworth and ZTE.
Mirada is now the only known software provider to successfully
integrate Android TV for all primary video delivery
technologies.
izzi's CEO, Salvi Folch, commented: "At izzi, we are always
looking to have innovative products. We are convinced that our
izzitv smart offer is the best video experience available in
Mexico. Our interface has all the content that users want in a
single device adding the best of linear TV, video on demand, apps,
games and Android TV functionalities. It also includes the
possibility of using voice control to operate the device, which is
an innovation in the Mexican market."
Mirada's CEO, José Luis Vázquez, commented: "We showcased our
Iris solution for the Android TV Operator Tier at numerous
international trade shows last year, and are delighted with the
interest it has received so far. With the recent launch of our
Android TV solution in Spain and several other projects currently
underway, we are delighted to be able to announce this commercial
launch with the leading Mexican operator and our long-term client,
izzi."
