Filed in archive IPTV by martino on April 06, 2005

On March 8th, Mexican cable operator, Cablevisi�n (note: the latter is not related to the US MSO of virtually the same name; it is a subsidiary of Mexico's Grupo Televisa), began commercial deployment of Version 1.7 of Microsoft TV's Foundation Edition platform in Mexico City.

According to Microsoft, the new software is running on Motorola's DCT6412 HD DVR and will allow the operator, which deployed an earlier version of Foundation Edition in 2003, to offer dual-tuner PVR service, HDTV, VOD, an EPG and ITV games to its entire digital subscriber baselinks.
"This deployment is a great milestone for the cable industry in Latin America as it is the first of its kind to convert a cable operator's entire digital customer base to advanced digital services," Tim Fritzley, Microsoft TV's VP of global sales and solutions, said in a prepared statement.

"With these great new services, Cablevisi�n's customers will enjoy the ultimate control of advanced TV experiences in their home. They can record their favorite programs, including programs in HD, pause and rewind live television broadcasts at the touch of a button, and build a customized list of recordings by using the DVR's series recording capability to record their favorite shows. Cablevisi�n will not only be the leader in Mexico but also one of the leaders in North America."
