OTTAWA – Canadian video app platform company You.i TV is making it easier for media companies to deliver VoD and TV Everywhere services across phones, tablets and television screens.
The Ottawa-based company said Thursday that its new You.i Engine One gives brands and content owners design flexibility in an out-of-the-box solution, and is pre-integrated with popular online video platform (OVPs) backends to support the essential elements of VoD and TVE services.
Specifically, You.i Engine One offers a customizable and configurable user experience with Adobe After Effects; full player functionality including closed captioning, state base play, casting, and airplay across popular platform players; pre-integrated to standard OVPs with optional integration adapters for authentication, entitlements, content discovery, payment gateway, personalization, ad monetization, reporting, QoS and analytics; GPU hardware acceleration on all platforms, built on standard APIs, including OpenGL Open ES and DirectX; and cross platform support for iOS, Android, tvOS, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, PlayStation, Xbox and Microsoft UWP.
“We’ve been on mission to make great design and superior tech truly accessible from the start,” said CEO Jason Flick, in the news release. “You.i Engine One puts the boots to the unnecessary complexity around video apps today. Ultimately, freeing content owners to focus on the user experience makes good business sense.”
