Octoshape and CaptiveWorks Launch Worldwide Streaming to Set-Top-Boxes

Copenhagen, Denmark (May 4, 2009) -

CativeWorks have successfully implemented the Octoshape streaming solution in one of their set-top-boxes. This allows a world-wide audience to tune in to high-quality streams directly on their TV sets.

CaptiveWorks a US based company located in Glendale, California with their focal point on designing, manufacturing and distributing a wide range of high-end Digital Video Broadcasting Receivers have successfully implemented the Octoshape solution onto one of their set-top-boxes.

CaptiveWorks' main focus is on providing leading edge technology coupled with unmatched satisfaction to their customers for a greater online experience.

"The main reason for choosing Octoshape was streaming reliability and excellent cooperation from the Octoshape staff. After 6 months of continuous testing, we noticed that the streaming quality was extremely stable and reliable. Add to that, the lower cost achieved with the grid technology, no other streaming solution could match Octoshape's offering." said Dikran Hovagimian, CEO for CaptiveWorks. "We offer two streaming solutions to our customers. The first is web based and uses the standard Octoshape enhanced delivery using a web browser. The second is via a custom IP box developed by CaptiveWorks Inc. which integrates the Octoshape grid technology and offers a Set Top Box solution for casual TV viewing".

Octoshape is proud to have been part of the development process and excited about the release of this innovative product. The Octoshape streaming solution is already recognized globally for high quality, reliability and scale. Major broadcasters around the globe already use the solution for high profile streaming, including events such as the inauguration of Barack Obama, the Olympics, and the Eurovision Song Contest.
