LiveTV meets the Web.


TWCTv.com allowed Time Warner Cable subscribers to stream live TV to their desktop or tablet. Among the first providers to offer streaming services, subscribers could log in and watch all of the same movies, sports and channels they are entitled to at home. Including premium channels like HBO, Showtime and Cinemax.

Microsoft Silverlight™

Delivering a video experience to the widest possible audience requires a video player that adapts itself to each subscriber's internet speed and hardware capabilities. Viewers with high speed internet and modern hardware enjoy HD 1080p picture, while subscribers with a lower tier of service and equipment still enjoy the same content with quality that adapts itself accordingly.

Smooth Streaming™

Our Agency solved this challenge by developing a robust video player using the Microsoft Silverlight™ platform and Smooth Streaming™ as the delivery method. Smooth Streaming™ provides a high-quality viewing experience that scales massively on content distribution networks, while Silverlight™ ensures security & compatibility.
