Ocean
Blue Software is pleased to announce a collaboration with Rovi to integrate Rovi’s
Connected Platform software for Digital Living Network Alliance capabilities into
its mature Sunrise digital video broadcast stack. Ocean Blue Software’s and Rovi’s
combined technologies provide a solution designed to make it easier for consumer electronics
manufacturers to develop DVB TVs that can access digital content from networked and
DLNA compatible devices.

Ocean Blue Software’s Sunrise DVB software provides all of the components necessary
to enable digital TV and set top box manufacturers to quickly and easily implement
satellite, cable and terrestrial DVB functionality into their devices. Now, with the
integration of Rovi’s Connected Platform, a DLNA technology component, CE manufacturers
can offer consumers the ability to easily manage their digital media content stored
on different devices in the home. Shared content, such as videos, photos and audio
files, stored on a remote server can be retrieved and played from the TV; movie clips
can be viewed, paused, re-wound or fast forwarded; and media files can be divided
into genre and rated according to user preference.

The software solution is hardware and operating system agnostic ensuring manufacturers
have a scalable and quickly deployable solution that can be ported across any TV-centric
chipset.

Gigle
Semiconductor unveils the world’s fastest and most reliable entertainment-grade
networking IC, and announced that lead customer Belkin has
selected the device for use in the company’s recently announced Gigabit Powerline
Networking Adapters. Belkin is using Gigle’s GGL541 IC and mediaxtream technology
to give users an ultrafast HD entertainment network through a home’s existing electrical
wiring.

Now shipping in volume, Gigle Semiconductor’s entertainment-grade GGL541 networking
chip enables Belkin’s Gigabit Powerline Adapters to provide a secure, stable networking
signal anywhere in the home – even for areas that are hard to reach by wireless connections.
Gigle’s GGL541 dual-channel home networking IC combines HomePlug AV on powerline with
a second channel that simultaneously delivers Gigle’s mediaxtream technology on powerline,
coaxial cable or phone line at physical-layer rates up to 1000Mbps. On-chip intelligence
either aggregates the channels for higher performance, or uses them to form a self-configuring
xtendnet mesh network that re-times and re-generates signals, and incrementally enhances
whole-house network performance, coverage, stability and reliability as new adapters
are added to the network. The GGL541 chip maintains high data throughput even under
extreme noise conditions commonly found in powerline, phoneline and coaxial cables.

Belkin’s Gigabit Powerline Networking Adapters, which are available now in the U.S.
and due to be released in Europe in August, take advantage of Gigle’s GGL541 with
mediaxtream technology to deliver high speeds, low latencies, and consistent connections.
While the current fastest Powerline technology runs at 200Mbps, Gigabit Powerline
delivers performance up to 1000Mbps data rates.
