As part of the event, Rovi will be demonstrating its latest lineup of solutions — including TotalGuide™, DivX® Plus Streaming and the Rovi Advertising Network — that are enriching the discovery, delivery and enjoyment of cable services on broadly deployed set-top boxes and next-generation platforms as well as tablets and smartphones.

As part of its commitment to drive innovative technologies and services, Rovi is showcasing its Rovi Cloud Services APIs and Developer Portal as sponsorship of Imagine Park’s Imagine App Challenge, a student competition taking place during The Cable Show. Participating students will be able to use Rovi Cloud Service APIs and Rovi Developer Portal to develop a winning media, entertainment, or communications application for the cable industry.

Demonstrations at the Rovi Booth and throughout The Cable Show include:

Discovery:

• Speech enhanced discovery capability – Through the new initiative announced today with Nuance Communications, Rovi will demonstrate new building blocks for speech and audio recognition as part of the discovery experience. (See press release, “Rovi and Nuance to Advance Voice Activated Guidance and Content Discovery”)

• TotalGuide Solution will be demonstrated on Pace’s next-generation Multi-tuner Video Gateway for “home content sharing” featuring Whole Home DVR and IP connectivity. Rovi TotalGuide on Pace’s platform is designed to provide a common user experience across multiple platforms enabling consumers seamless access to digital content while also giving operators more choice on how to implement content sharing and IP capabilities in their infrastructure. (See press release, “Rovi TotalGuide Solution Debuts in Pace Set-Top Boxes”)

• TotalGuide for Set-top Box enables service providers to offer subscribers a visually rich user experience and engaging new user interface to connect with a cable operator’s On Demand library. The solution, designed for integration into broadly deployed set-top boxes, provides a robust feature set that includes integrated search, recommendations and continuous “six degrees” discovery.

• As part of its TotalGuide Solution for Service Providers, Rovi will demonstrate new features including Mini Guide and an enhanced TV Listings user interface that enables service providers to offer a seamless discovery experience where content is front and center. Mini Guide provides an expanded TV listings view in a smaller visual format that allows subscribers to continue to watch programming while they navigate additional content.

The enhancements can be deployed on in-market advanced set top boxes (STBs) that currently use Rovi i-Guide.

The solution will also be demonstrated in the Motorola and Pace booths.

Video Delivery:
