NAGRA and Codespot partner to deliver Android TV for cable operator TOYA

Codespot has integrated its Android TV middleware platform with NAGRA’s market-leading content protection solutions. This jointly integrated product will be deployed by the Polish cable operator TOYA later this year. The platform will give TOYA’s subscribers secure access to the operator’s existing video services such as Linear TV, video-on demand and catch-up TV and will also provide access to third-party Over-the-top (OTT) video streaming services.

Working with Codespot we are continuing to offer new ways operators can deploy secure and innovative Android TV products - said Tim Pearson, Vice President Global Solution Marketing at NAGRA.
