SPI International/FilmBox Moves Gametoon HD to Cloud-Based Platform

SPI International/FilmBox has shifted the broadcast of Gametoon HD to cloud-based playout platform using Evrideo.

Evrideo is an end-to-end cloud-based broadcast platform that gets channels up and running, manages content and delivers TV feeds to distribution platforms like cable TV, OTT and social media networks. Gametoon is the first of SPI/FilmBox’s channels to take advantage of the platform. Gametoon HD covers esports and computer games across a variety of pay-TV platforms in Europe and the Middle East.

Guney Yasavur, COO of SPI International, said: “We were looking for state-of-the-art technology that would be more flexible and helpful to reduce time to market. By starting to broadcast Gametoon HD from the Evrideo platform, we were able to first test the ground with our new channel’s concept, present it quickly and simply to potential customers and audiences, then deliver the commercial feed easily with Evrideo’s unique tools.”

Avi Zenou, founder and CEO of Evrideo, added: “Evrideo lets any broadcaster ingest, QC and manage its content, live events, scheduling and graphics on a cloud-based platform running on Amazon AWS with the full flexibility to manage the TV channel from anywhere in the world using a web browser and simple internet connectivity. We are thrilled to serve SPI as a leading European broadcaster, which joins many other broadcasters and more than 30 commercial channels.”
