Everything Everywhere is upgrading mobile TV for Orange and T-Mobile customers

Everything EverywhereEverything Everywhere has appointed Red Bee Media to provide a new mobile TV delivery platform. It’s part of the company’s plans to upgrade the Orange and T-Mobile mobile TV service. Everything Everywhere says all this activity will help achieve a six-fold increase in its mobile TV subscriber base over the next three years.

The new mobile TV delivery platform is powered by Red Bee Media’s RedPlayer solution and will stream live content from over 40 channels including ITV1, ITV2, Eurosport, ITN News, Sky News, Sky Sports 1, CNN and National Geographic.

It also offers access for tablet users alongside smartphone customers and integrates with WiFi, giving consumers an alternative to using 3G.

Paul Jevons, Director of Products at Everything Everywhere, said “We’re evolving our mobile TV service to ensure we offer our customers a best in class viewing experience. The new delivery platform is just the start, and we have several significant developments planned for our service over the next 12 months which will really transform the way consumers view mobile TV. We’ll also be looking at new technologies as they become available, including the ability to stream 3D content to handsets with 3D capable screens – so our customers will only continue to receive the best services we are able to offer them.”

Orange introduced mobile TV in 2005, while T-Mobile has been offering a service since 2007.

Predictions for 2016: Network Function Virtualisation, 4G throttling and video calling

Mark Windle, head of marketing at OpenCloud, predicts that this year’s reduction in the number of traditional telecoms operators in some countries will provide an opportunity for other operators to innovate and capture market share in 2016.

He says next year will be a year of rapid change for telecoms… whether it’s MVNO disruption, competitive tariff pricing or simply defence from the ‘dark art’ of hacking.

Kapture review: the audio-recording wristband

A 'recording watch' that links to your smartphone

Mark Bridge writes:

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.

Making mobile websites work better

Making mobile websites work better

Device detection and responsive design explained

Mark Bridge writes:

James Rosewell shows me a colourful roll of paper that's the width of an iPhone but well over three metres long. When I look closer, I can see it's a printed copy of the Wall Street Journal's mobile website. That's a lot of scrolling to do... and a pretty unfriendly user experience for anyone reading the news online. Why does it work so badly?
