Enabling TV Everywhere with Widevine Video Optimization and Digital Rights Management

Widevine will demonstrate its video optimization and DRM capabilities using on demand and live services. Devices used for the demonstration will be: Blu-ray players from Samsung and LG; Mac and PC laptops; and iPhone, RIM and Android mobile devices. Widevine will show and explain the features unique to its video optimization capabilities such as fast video startups and buffer-free trick play. These capabilities makes the experience of watching content delivered over the Internet virtually the same as watching content on a DVD. Widevine will also demonstrate how it can support live (linear) video as well as on-demand content.
