At IBC today, Technicolor is showcasing a very different offering in the OTT space with LEA, the company’s OTT software plug-in and user interface combo.
LEA is a user-centric cloud-based software video solution. Built for faster, easier and more scalable deployment into operator’s existing video infrastructure, the plug-in supports high quality video content delivery across multiple devices in the home.
It aggregates all available broadcast, internet, on-demand and user content into a single view, enabling the user to search across the full content selection.
