CALGARY – Shaw has chosen Motorola’s DreamGallery software to provide its customers with a more personalized and intuitive content management system, the companies announced Tuesday.
A cloud-based HTML5 video tool suite, DreamGallery allows for the creation of custom, operator-branded guide experiences through animations, filtering and an easy-to-use Web-like interface. Designed to deliver the SocialTV and TV Beyond the TV experiences, it also allows operators to deliver the on-screen experience across devices such as smart phones, tablets, PCs and connected TVs, regardless of operating systems.
Shaw will begin launching DreamGallery on Motorola HD set-top boxes that support both MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 service delivery.
“Our new guide will give our customers a totally new way of interacting with Shaw content, making it easier, faster and more intuitive to enjoy their programming,” said Shaw Communications’ president Peter Bissonnette, in the announcement. “DreamGallery will allow us to deliver the Shaw experience across multiple platforms, enabling a future where customers can enjoy their content whenever and wherever they want.”
“DreamGallery is a perfect example of how our intuitive software offerings empower consumers to enjoy a seamless experience across content delivery, discovery, sharing and consumption”, said John Burke, SVP and GM of converged experiences at Motorola Mobility. “We are excited to launch DreamGallery in North America with Shaw Communications.”
