Amis adds to multiscreen VoD with Zappware

Slovenian and Croatian internet service provider Amis is launching additional features on its Zappware-based TV Everywhere service.

Amis will use the connected TV variant of Zappware’s Nexx system to extend its current multi-screen service on tablets,
smartphones and PCs with video-on-demand and catch-up TV services and to allow these second-screen devices to control the content on the subscriber’s main TV screen using Zappware’s remote control feature.

In addition, the new features will allow Amis to offer its linear TV services to subscribers via smart TVs.
The VOD, catch-up TV and remote control features will be deployed as upgrades to Zappware’s TwinTV and Nexx   products on Android and iOS smartphones and tablets, PCs and Apple Macs, and on set-top boxes supplied by Zappware’s partner Albis Technologies. Amis will use a connected TV variant of Zappware’s Nexx product to deliver linear TV to smart TV users.

Amis operates in Maribor and Ljubljana in Slovenia, and also provides services in Croatia.

“The multi-screen digital TV experience that Zappware’s solution offers provides a persuasive argument for subscribers to adopt more Amis services, including our mobile offering. We have again selected Zappware because it has already proven its ability to deliver a futuristic, fast, simple and reliable solution for Amis. It also continues to develop new services that will delight subscribers and help keep us at the forefront of the IPTV market,” said Boštjan Košak, Amis’s CEO.
