IPTV companies and cable operators who deploy the joint solution will leverage Bluestreak Technology’s MachBlue XT software platforms to create a single presentation environment for delivering rich media experiences uniquely optimized for the Amino Freedom media center. MachBlue unites today’s best presentation technologies, including HTML5, Flash, JavaScript, and CSS3, to enable companies to create compelling user experiences that can run across a wide variety of devices including mobile, connected television, set-top box, and other consumer electronics.

The joint solution runs on the Amino Freedom hybrid/OTT media center which, like Google TV, features the powerful Intel® Atom™ processor CE4100. It has been specially designed to help meet growing consumer demand for TV-based OTT video entertainment and support a wide variety of entertainment services from broadcast TV, Video-on-Demand, home media, games, and other applications.
