Viaplay, the online service for TV, film and sport in the Nordics, has deployed Envivio Muse software-based encoding solutions to enhance its service. Viaplay is part of Modern Times Group (MTG), an international entertainment broadcasting group with operations that span four continents and include free-TV, pay-TV, radio and content production businesses.

Viaplay is using Envivio Muse Live software-based encoders on the 4Caster C4 Gen III platform to extend streaming of live channels to IP STBs, giving customers additional viewing options. This deployment represents one of the first large scale pay-TV projects in Europe to make use of linear OTT delivery to STBs.
