Nagravision partners with Samsung for TV apps

Nagravision is partnering with TV manufacturer Samsung to provide TV applications to select 2010 Samsung HDTVs, Blu-ray players and home theatre systems via the upgraded Internet@ TV content service.

As a result of the partnership, Nagravision said consumers would have access to more interactive and compelling applications on Samsung Apps, a HDTV-based application store where users can download and purchase applications. The company’s content publishing tools provide application templates for creating and publishing applications on Samsung Apps. It has already developed apps to deliver video content from Fashion TV and Travel Wizard.
