AMSTERDAM — NOS, Portugal’s primary cable operator serving more than 1.7 million video households, has selected Media Distillery’s Deep Content Understanding™ technology to enhance the user experience and customer engagement of their video platform, by creating a ‘linear on demand’ viewing experience.

Media Distillery’s award-winning Deep Content Understanding™ technology can analyze video content to determine relevant topics, events or specific time markers, all in real-time and cloud-based.

Moreover, NOS is using the product to insert pre-roll advertisements in their replay platform.
