Altibox TV uses CTS’ Cloud Video Platform for centralized ingest of on-demand video and advanced metadata management, including the ability to treat duplicate show episodes or movies from different content providers as a single management asset while maintaining multi-tenant attribution. CTS’ Cloud Video Platform also provides Altibox with advanced content protection, concurrency, and rights enforcement; commerce and subscription management; and video playout across connected devices and apps.
“Altibox is on a continuous mission to provide the best possible entertainment experience to our customers by leveraging the most innovative and capable back-end systems possible, which is why we turned to Comcast Technology Solutions,” said Jarle Johnsen head of tv technology at Lyse Tele AS and Altibox TV. “CTS is enabling us to centralize video and subscriber management efforts across both legacy and new set-top boxes, connected TVs, and mobile apps to improve efficiency and position us for future innovation.”
CTS’ Cloud Video Platform can be used separately, or combined with other CTS services, to address the custom needs of content owners, broadcasters, and entertainment companies.
Key benefits of CTS’ services will be showcased from April 18 to April 22 at the upcoming 2026 NAB Show in CTS’ meeting suite at the Encore Tower Suites in Las Vegas.
Comcast Technology Solutions will also be speaking at the co-located PEAK Conference, April 20-22, at the Fontainebleau.
