Gogo, castLabs to bring App-Free digital rights management for Inflight Entertainment:
30 January 2020: Gogo is all set to launch of a new digital rights management (DRM) service that enables playback of video-on-demand content in the most popular browsers without additional plug-ins or app downloads.
The new service was developed in partnership with castLabs. It permits each title to be packaged for browsers like Safari and Chrome on all operating systems with a single file using the latest file format - Common Media Application Format or CMAF - in the industry. The single encrypted file format allows for Gogo's inflight entertainment (IFE) service, Gogo Vision, to maximise the airlines library size and store 50 per cent more content than other solutions. The roll-out of this new technology will be complete in the first half of 2020.
"Gogo is the first in the industry to launch a streaming solution that uses a single encrypted file format to play video across the most popular browsers," said Blane Boynton, SVP of Product for Gogo. "castLabs is our technology enabler, and a well-known and trusted DRM vendor in the industry. By removing the need for an app or plug-in, Gogo provides a seamless experience to our airline partners and their passengers."
"Gogo is leveraging our updated PRESTOplay and DRMtoday solutions that utilise the latest advances in streaming technology to deliver a single version of content to all modern browsers, agnostic to the various DRM systems they support,'' said Michael Stattmann, Founder of castLabs. "Gogo is indeed the first to use the latest CMAF file format with 'cbcs' encryption to enable an app-free inflight entertainment experience on mobile devices. We look forward to a strong partnership with Gogo as we support more streamlined ways to offer content to their customers."
