(Nasdaq: SEAC), a leading global multi-screen video software innovator, and Civolution, the leading provider of technology and solutions to identify, manage and monetize media content, announced today they have created a joint solution to enable cable operators – for the first time – to offer premium VOD content to their subscribers.&nbsp; The solution is currently being deployed by a large North American cable operator.<br /><br />As mandated by Hollywood studios for offering movies in an early-release window, operators need to integrate transactional watermarking protection into their VOD workflow and network infrastructure, which allows for forensic tracking to the source of potential illegal copies. In order to do this, SeaChange integrated Civolution’s newest NexGuard watermark pre-processor and smart-embedder software into three components of its intelligent video software platform:<br /><br />• SeaChange AssetFlow™ content workflow manager, which gives operators the ability to automate, monetize and deliver content to their back office systems, video servers and content delivery networks (CDNs) while reducing operational costs.&nbsp;&nbsp; AssetFlow can seamlessly add content processing elements above and beyond transcoding, automated QA, and audio normalization such as watermarking through a plug-in-based open standards modular interface; <br />• SeaChange Axiom™ On Demand back office that is a complete end-to-end software solution and an open, standards-based framework that delivers personalization, operational efficiency and open interfaces to power third party applications and video pumps; <br />• SeaChange’s MDS and FMS products for cost-effective storage and streaming of VOD assets.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

It’s a major breakthrough in getting consumers the content they want sooner, which will generate new revenues and create customer loyalty.” <br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

These two steps combine in the watermarking workflow to provide an extremely scalable, yet robust transactional watermarking protection.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

This will enable Spinlet to determine the source of the music - whether major labels, major independents, African labels and other independent African artists.</span></p>
<span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 115%;" lang="EN-US">The market for digital music in Africa has been untapped by any of the major music services to date. <span style="mso-spacerun:yes">&nbsp;</span>Spinlet is changing this by offering a groundbreaking new Cloud-based service that lets artists upload albums and tracks for sale to millions of music fans throughout the region. This unique model allows independent musicians and bands in Africa to produce their own music and sell it alongside other more prominent artists in Africa and from around the world. Spinlet also provides artists with tools to better understand their fan base and interact with them through social media. </span>
<span style="font-size: 10px;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;" lang="EN-US">Spinlet will use the Mediahedge™ content identification and monitoring platform, a joint service by Civolution and Gracenote, to identify tracks and the origin of the music. <span style="mso-spacerun:yes">&nbsp;</span>The Gracenote and Civolution technology works by analyzing the unique “audio fingerprint” of a song to recognize and match to songs owned by copyright holders.

The watermark insertion is performed in two stages. The first stage, referred to as ‘watermark pre-processing’, is performed once per media asset while transcoding original assets to the desired delivery format. The second step, referred to as ‘watermark smart embedding’ is applied upon streaming by Windows Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) or third party CDNs.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

This format can then be uploaded to a CDN for delivery to the end user and is fully compliant with Microsoft Silverlight.&nbsp; At the CDN level, a transaction identifier is applied by the NexGuard watermark smart embedder, making each delivered stream and copies thereof uniquely traceable.&nbsp;In November 2011 Civolution announced it joined the Akamai NetAlliance partner program as a Digital Media Solution Partner, integrating its NexGuard smart embedder technology with Akamai’s HD CDN.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

The identifier is inserted into the original stream at the point of delivery. The NexGuard solution acts both as a powerful deterrent and an efficient tracing tool for forensic analysis, with proven deployments in Pre-release, Digital Cinema, PayTV and Online Delivery applications.<br /><br /></span></span></span></span></font></p>

This not only allows networks and content providers to deliver engaging second-screen services without the need for additional production resources, but also provides a fun, engaging, social experience. ConnecTV is available on tablets, laptops and home computers. <br /><br />“The timely and accurate identification of TV content—whether live or time-shifted—is complex and our key competitive advantage,” said ConnecTV co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, Alan Moskowitz. “Our team has spent the last several years relentlessly innovating the technology engine that drives ConnecTV’s second-screen experience. Civolution’s ease of integration and proven track record in fingerprinting technologies make them the clear integration partner to bring our platform to life.” <br /><br />“Having been at the forefront of content watermarking and fingerprinting for many years, we continue to be inspired by innovative new applications of our technologies,” said Civolution CEO Alex Terpstra.&nbsp; “ConnecTV is a standout example of such forward-thinking use. We feel privileged to be helping them provide TV viewers around the world with a highly engaging second-screen experience and we wish ConnecTV success with their service.” <br /><br />ConnecTV integrated Civolution’s ACR technology—available to developers as a low resource SDK—to generate audio fingerprints in real-time by having the companion device listening to the television audio in the home. ConnecTV provides TV viewers with compelling content and a social companion experience to all programs on more than 250 networks nationwide, and will soon roll out on regional sports networks and on 201 local ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, WB and CW affiliate networks from its Broadcast Partners: Barrington, Belo, Cox, Gannett, Hearst, Media General, Meredith, Raycom, Scripps and Washington Post-Newsweek. <br /><br />ConnecTV, as well as Civolution’s media interaction range of solutions (SyncNow – 2nd Screen and SyncNow – Smart TV, including the newly launched server-side Content Triggering Service), and media protection solution (NexGuard – PayTV), will be on display at the 2012 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.</span></span></span></span></font></p>
