PARIS, June 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Viaccess, a France Telecom company and leader in conditional access, Quadrille editor of the software product Quadricast(TM) currently involved in the design of content push and VOD systems for both Satellite or DTT and IP DSL networks , 27M & Proxy Electronics announced today that they have been selected by TDF, a broadcasting transmission network operator and leading service provider in the audiovisual, multimedia, mobile telephony and broadband sectors to power on-demand services. This innovative solution will offer TDF a significantly enhanced value to its network by efficiently being able to deliver premium content to VOD channels' subscribers.

TDF has offered broadcasters the opportunity to test VOD on digital terrestrial television since early 2009. The principle is simple: programmes or movies are broadcast over-the-air to a dedicated portion of the PVR's hard drive when the load on the terrestrial network is low - typically at night. Viewers can then watch the content when they want to. The proposed model being tested so far includes catch-up TV model.

The ecosystem of partners is composed of Quadrille, Viaccess and 27M. QuadriCast solution offers a bandwidth independent means of distributing any form of digital content. For the TDF project, Viaccess conditional access solutions will secure the content distributed. Viaccess products in the field of conditional access and content protection have already been selected by numerous operators worldwide, for their quality, level of security and ease of deployment.

27M Technologies, a hardware and software design house expert in the field of set-top boxes and DTV, is offering a reference software combination of the 27M DVB software stack and Viaccess ACS 3.0 Conditional Access which has already passed the Viaccess Certification Process. Together with the Mpeg 4HD PVR HW design also provided by 27M, it guarantees that the Set Top Box platform meets the highest level of compliance with the Viaccess Content protection mechanism.
