On Wednesday, TiVo Inc. (NASDAQ:TIVO)’s shares declined -1.46% to $9.48.
TiVo Inc. (TIVO), a leader in the advanced television entertainment market, and WOW! Internet, Cable & Phone, a top 10 cable operator serving nearly 800,000 customers, recently declared a joint development relationship with Evolution Digital. The agreement comprises plans to deploy TiVo’s software solution across mobile, web and a new low-cost, Hybrid HD Set-Top Box (STB). Evolution Digital will provide the STB hardware.
The offering is achieved through a STB hardware partnership with Evolution Digital. Evolution has created a low-cost STB platform that integrates traditional linear over QAM and Broadband services. The STB uses HD uDTA security, eliminating the hardware-based CableCARD to allow lower price point options for operators. In turn, this allows operators to be aggressive in their roll out of ‘hybrid’ experiences — mixing traditional video with broadband video. When combined with TiVo’s software, this STB can be deployed in multiple modes — a stand-alone HD-STB, a client to a TiVo DVR, or as a client to a next generation cloud TV services such as IP linear and network DVR. The operator investment in STB investment is future proof when combined with TiVo’s multi-mode software.
