This combination of exciting Streaming services offers great opportunities for Telecom operators to differentiate themselves in a very cost effective way with innovative TV devices, and we will be building on this first launch with Zeop to expand the new joint proposition to more Operators across Europe.”"

"...Now Netgem can offer any operator wishing to evolve their TV UX and embrace more content, with a very fast time-to-market, running on any Android TV STB. 

Netgem not only offers a future-proof solution for Operators with a strong central innovation Roadmap, but also delivers savings in terms of Capex and Opex to the Operators with the combination of its Cloud-based aggregation Platform and cost-effective Android TV devices provided in partnership with ZTE."

Netgem launches latest Multiscreen TV service for ZEOP in France, with new Netgem UI on Android TV

Netgem launches a complete revamp of the Zeop TV product in the ‘La Reunion’ territory in France @ 2023-06-07

"Zeop TV, with a reach of 100,000+ customers, is at this occasion enhanced with 12 more Replay services, added to the best quality live experience, all accessible via the same acclaimed UI for ‘the most advanced TV service’, already running on Netgem TV boxes, Apple TV, Laptop browsers and Mobile Apps." (2023)

"Plus de 300 000 foyers sont déjà raccordables à la fibre et zeop poursuit son déploiement.  (2023)

The estimated number of Internet users in La Réunion is 480,000. ... La Réunion’s Internet market is highly competitive compared to the rest of France, with a choice of six service providers for a population of only 860,000 – a density of operators unique to the island. This high market penetration doesn’t mean an end to growth, however, as the rapid deployment of fibre-optic technology shows. When it comes to fibre to the home (FTTH), La Réunion is way ahead of France with approximately 75 percent of Réunionese homes now connectable. In locations where there are two or three co-existing fibre networks, of which Zeop is one, the high level of competition has helped the fast deployment of fibre over the whole island. (2019)"

NEW: BT Sport "timeline feature" comes to NETGEM TV

(25 May 2021)

BT Sport introduces new timeline feature and joins Netgem

BT Sport is continuing to give its customers more ways to watch, launching a beta of a new ‘timeline’ feature on its award-winning App for large screens which gives viewers a completely new way to watch live sport on TV. In addition, Netgem’s TV box range has become the latest large screen platform on which the BT Sport app is available.

(BT Sport is streaming the 2021 UEFA Europa League Final and the UEFA Champions League Final for free)

The broadcaster also announced that the large screen app has been added to Netgem (UK), with both the Netgem HD and 4K TV boxes now offering it to BT Sport app subscribers. Owners of the Netgem soundbox HD sound system can also access the app.

The timeline feature will launch on the App for large screens, in beta form, in time for this week’s UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League finals. 

< timeline feature >

However, you won’t be able to access it in time for those events if you’re using the BTSport App via all platforms/devices, but they plan to move to BT Sport Ultimate streams in 4K HDR in time for next season.

The timeline features will launch on the App for large screens in beta form for this week’s UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League finals, with a view to launching in full next season around events such as the Premier League and UEFA Champions League. While viewers have been able to use a timeline on mobiles and tablets for several seasons as part of the App’s enhanced player, this is the first time that they will be able to enjoy an improved viewing experience on large screens. 

The new features allow customers watching on TV via the App to access an interactive timeline for each match to keep abreast of key moments and incidents. The feature allows them to re-watch key moments and move seamlessly back to the live action. 

Meanwhile, customers can access the App for large screens on the Netgem 4K and Netgem HD TV boxes, plus Netgem soundbox HD. BT Sport will join an array of HD and 4K content available via the Netgem platform including Freeview Play,  Prime Video, Youtube, and BritBox.

The Netgem launch means BT Sport customers can access the App on a growing number of platforms and devices, following recent launches in the past year on Amazon Fire TV, Roku devices as well as TV sets supporting Android TV joining existing availability on Samsung smart TV, Sony PlayStation, Xbox, Google Chromecast and Apple TV, as well as mobiles and tablets. BT Sport is also available on all major pay TV platforms BT TV, Sky, TalkTalk and Virgin Media. 

Sylvain Thevenot, Chief Commercial & Customer Officer, Netgem Group, said: “Launching BT Sport on our award-winning Netgem TV service completes the range of content already provided to consumers via our distribution operator partners in the UK, and we are pleased to offer fantastic Sport content in stunning 4K quality via the BT Sport App.

Jamie Hindhaugh, chief operating officer, BT Sport, said: “BT Sport is proud to have continually broken new ground in how fans can watch live sport in recent years and today’s launches are the first to come from BT Sport Innovates, our new home of innovation. We’re excited that fans can sample the timeline, a new way of viewing sport on TV, ahead of its launch next season. And in joining Netgem’s platform we’re continuing to make it even easier for fans to follow the sport they love.” For more information on BT Sport’s innovation visit bt.com/sport/innovates. 

So, next season, is expected that timeline feature will be available in 4K HDR Netgem devices also next season!

2021: Apple TV+ in risk of millions of cancellations (appealing Netgem TV... VideoFutur...)

According to nScreenNoise (16 Dec, 2020), Apple TV+ needs a content infusion to avoid millions of cancelations.

"It has been over a year since Apple TV+ launched, and most of its 40 million subscribers are taking advantage of a free year of service. 

What will they do when it comes time to pay? Without a huge Apple TV plus content injection, millions will hit the exits."

(...)

"Things are not looking good for 2021. Apple TV+ has had no breakout hit; it has slow content flow and a tiny library."
