GalleryPlayer Launches 80 New Blocks of HD VOD Programming--Launches Broadband Service for Cable Operators, Signs Blu-ray Deal
GalleryPlayer, a company perhaps best known for the on-demand galleries of high-definition imagery it offers on Comcast's HD VOD platform (note: earlier this year, the company announced that consumer electronics giant, Panasonic, is incorporating support for its service into its entire 2007 line of plasma and HD TV sets--see [itvt] Issue 7.24), recently announced the availability of 80 new half-hour blocks of HD programming, containing ultra-high-quality static imagery from such sources as National Geographic and the Museum of Modern Art. Previously, the company's portfolio consisted of 40 hour-long programming blocks. "Now GalleryPlayer has even more content for consumers who are seeking the latest in high-quality HD programming," GalleryPlayer founder and president, Paul Brownlow, said in a prepared statement. "Not only do our programs deliver terrific responses from viewers, but they also provide our cable partners with fresh content that can be updated every few weeks, adding incredible value to their HD offerings."
In other GalleryPlayer news:
- The company has launched a new broadband service targeted at cable operators that carry its VOD service. The new service will allow cable subscribers to purchase and download images to their PC's from their operator's home page. Cable operators will be able to brand the service, which GalleryPlayer will operate and maintain. "Cable subscribers want to be able to own what they see on TV," GalleryPlayer's Brownlow said in a prepared statement. "GalleryPlayer broadband for cable enhances our current cable offerings to allow viewers direct access to a wide range of high-quality HD image downloads. Now our cable partners can take advantage of GalleryPlayer's expertise within the ever-expanding HD market to further optimize revenue streams and draw consumer attention to their signature services."
- The company has signed a deal with Image Entertainment to release four new collections of HD imagery on Blu-ray disc later this fall. The collections are entitled "1000 Places to See Before You Die: 50 Favorite Destinations," "The Amazing World of National Geographic," "Art Wolfe: Vanishing Act," and "50 Paintings from the Museum of Modern Art."
