Chile. Digital content distribution company International Datacasting Corporation and Grupo Chilefilms, which owns and operates the Cinecolor SAT satellite for the distribution and delivery of content for movie theaters throughout Latin America, reached an agreement to provide secure delivery of content.
The negotiation, which includes technical support over the next five years, was worth US$1.3 million. Under this contract, International Datacasting Corporation will put its platform that provides a secure delivery of satellite content, both films and sporting and musical events, to movie theater locations throughout Latin America.
According to company spokespeople, satellite content delivery improves speed, reliability and reduces the cost of content distribution, while live event coverage offers theater owners lucrative sources of additional revenue.
The Centient IDC CDN platform allows you to interpret, manage and process the content within files instead of simply treating them as data. The Centient Cinema Pro platform is capable of ingesting, verifying and confirming that the delivery of content conforms to the Digital Cinema Package (DCP) and the file format designed by the film studios, so that digital distribution ensures it.
It is also capable of encoding and decoding high-quality linear streams in 2D and 3D for the encrypted distribution of live events to different theaters, in MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 formats.
This contract will benefit the Chilefilms group's facilities in Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Peru and, of course, Chile.
