A good portion of multi-screen video from Pay TV operators is viewed in the home and customers want the option to substitute a bedroom TV for a tablet, so operators will need to replicate their full channel line-ups within TV Everywhere offers. The challenge is how to do this cost-effectively, given the limited new revenue opportunities for multi-screen TV. Tom Lattie, VP Product Management at Harmonic Inc, explains how to scale these services while minimising CAPEX and OPEX.
