Telekom Slovenije integrates UEFA’s LiveEx with TViN

Slovenian telco Telekom Slovenije has integrated UEFA’s LiveEx technology into its TViN white label interactive TV platform, giving access to views of multiple UEFA Champions League football matches simultaneously.

LiveEx provides real-time notifications of goals, penalties and red cards from other games while mathes are being viewed, giving viewers a sense of what’s happening elsewhere.

In addition to on-screen notifications, users can also set up SMS notifications, providing them with up-to-date reports complete with a video link on what’s happening on pitches around Europe.

The platform uses Envivio transcoding technology to create adaptive streams for different devices.

“The UEFA LiveEx service gives football fans an upgraded UEFA Champions League experience and the TViN platform enables us to easily integrate the service on TV as well as on web and mobile, thus ensuring that our viewers never miss an important goal – no matter which Champions League game they are following,” said Mitja Lazar, head of internet and multimedia services department at Telekom Slovenije.
