成人论坛 increases reach of iPlayer as streaming begins
|
The 成人论坛 has launched a streaming service on its video-on-demand platform, 成人论坛 iPlayer, complementing the download service which launched in beta on 27 July 2007.
听
成人论坛 iPlayer will be the first public service broadcaster online on-demand service in the UK to provide streaming for Macs and Linux, as well as Windows. Audiences can watch up to 250 different programmes a week for up to seven days after broadcast on the 成人论坛's television channels.
听
Anthony Rose, Head of Digital Media Technology at the 成人论坛, said: "We have worked hard to make 成人论坛 iPlayer a compelling user proposition. Streaming is the first in a number of new services that we will be rolling out in the coming months and we will be listening to feedback from our audiences to understand how they find the service and what new additions they would be interested in.
听
"We will be constantly updating 成人论坛 iPlayer to ensure that we continuously improve the way we deliver 成人论坛 programmes. One of the many updates we hope to implement in 2008 is a download solution for users of other operating systems including Macs which may be possible with the next suite of Adobe Air products."
听
This latest version of 成人论坛 iPlayer includes a number of new features:
听
- Share: Users are now able to share links to their favourite programmes with friends and add links to 成人论坛 iPlayer into their own websites. In early 2008 this element will be expanded so audiences will be able to embed video from the service into their sites.
- Parental guidance: Allows users to make informed viewing choices by password protecting access to guidance-labelled content.
- Radio: The new Radio button allows audiences to listen to the best of the last seven days of 成人论坛 Radio via one easy click. This item of the service will become fully integrated into 成人论坛 iPlayer early next year.
听
The marketing launch for 成人论坛 iPlayer begins on Christmas Day. The campaign will focus on highlights from the 成人论坛's Christmas programmes to encourage viewers to try out the service.
