Deltatre chooses Civolution for second screen synchronisation

Digital sports services provider Deltatre has integrated content security specialist Civolution’s SyncNow audio content recognition system into its Diva platform for second screen applications.

Diva is a video player that has been developed for the online sports market, including synchronised data, video and social integration.

According to Civolution, the integration of SyncNow, by enabling real-time identification and frame accurate synchronisation between broadcast, on-demand or recorded television content on the main screen and interactive applications on companion devices, will enable Deltatre to deliver new synchronised interactive experiences.

“In this multiscreen and simulscreen TV universe our clients want to leverage the growing presence of sports content on the web. So we need to ensure that our solution is ahead of the competition; our integration with Civolution’s SyncNow means that we can provide perfectly in-sync second screen applications, which is a unique functionality for sports on the smartphone or tablet,” said Stefano Rigat, director of online products, Deltatre.
