Med1a delivers true VOD to users by allowing them to watch any preloaded program at any time from anywhere. When the user selects the video, a point to point unicast connection is set up between the customer's decoder (SetTopBox or PC) and the med1a broadcast streaming server.

The user then has the ability to stream video and audio content over the broadband network in real time to a set top box or direct to a PC with full video control functionality. The Med1a Video on Demand Platform provides cost effective, high quality, full screen digital streaming over the internet. Full on demand control for every user is available directly to a PC or a Television. Features such as play, pause, fast forward and rewind come as standard along with software for content administration, user access and security management.

To protect the rights of content owners and avoid content piracy, the content is encrypted. Med1a provides state-of-the-art security using Microsoft DRM solutions to protect content once downloaded to customers devices.
