BackChannelMedia(TM) Clickable TV(TM) and Triveni Digital's GuideBuilder(R) Integrated to Enable Interactive TV for Broadcasters

GuideBuilder(R) Premier PSIP Management System and BackChannelMedia(TM) Clickable TV(TM) Together Offer Interactive Television Capability to Local Broadcast Affiliates

SUMMIT, N.J. and PRINCETON, N.J. -- Sept. 21, 2010 -- BackChannelMedia(TM), an interactive television solution provider, and Triveni Digital, a digital television broadcasting technology provider, today announced that Triveni Digital's GuideBuilder(R) PSIP metadata management system is interoperable with Clickable TV(TM), BackChannelMedia's end-to-end interactive TV solution. The GuideBuilder system provides mission-critical operational capabilities for content providers and network operators including managing PSI and PSIP metadata, critical elements for deploying interactive digital television.

Triveni Digital and BackChannelMedia's cooperative effort during the integration of GuideBuilder and Clickable TV was a great success, as the two companies signal the beginning of a new effort to introduce interactive TV solutions to broadcasters in markets of any size. Clickable TV is an EBIF (Enhanced TV Binary Interchange Format) application, the interactive television application standard being adopted by the television industry nationwide. Clickable TV is developed in such a way that it can be adapted and easily scaled to work in various broadcaster and cable operator technology environments.

BackChannelMedia's successful launch of Clickable TV took place in Montgomery, Ala., with the collaboration of Raycom Media station WSFA and Knology Cable. The system is currently live in homes within the Knology cable system with PID insertion accomplished at WSFA. "WSFA was very excited to be a part of the development of this new product, and we could not be more pleased with the cooperation and support extended by BackChannelMedia and Triveni Digital," said Morris Pollock, chief engineer at WSFA. "Clickable TV will equip viewers and advertisers across the country with additional features to enhance the television viewing experience."

"Triveni Digital made an exceptional effort to enhance its technology to be compatible with the Clickable TV system," said BackChannelMedia CTO Madeleine Noland. "It demonstrates to us that technology vendors, like Triveni Digital, are dedicated to delivering new interactive technologies, services, and products to their customers. Broadcasters can now explore the world of interactive television -- a world that many may have thought was only for cable."

"Triveni Digital is focused on enabling broadcasters and other DTV distributors to deploy enhanced content and services to advanced television systems and receivers," said Ralph Bachofen, vice president of sales and head of marketing at Triveni Digital. "We are excited to be collaborating with BackChannelMedia to support operationally efficient delivery of interactive television to the home."

BackChannelMedia and Triveni Digital are demonstrating that deployment of interactive television is possible not only for cable operators, but local broadcasters as well. Triveni Digital's GuideBuilder PSIP/SI generation system will be showcased in the company's booth 125 at the SCTE Cable-Tec Expo(R) 2010, Oct. 20-22 in New Orleans.
