Joins EIDR to Bring Value in Content Discovery and IP Content Solutions

December 23, 2013 – London, England, Viaccess-Orca, an innovative media company in France, has joined the Entertainment ID Registry organization, extending the European reach of the EIDR universal ID solution.  The EIDR identifier is increasingly leveraged in digital video supply chains that include content owners, content distributors, electronic retailers and technology provider companies.

“As a new EIDR member, Viaccess-Orca recognizes the benefits of a unique content ID scheme, across service universes and geographies.  With the development of its comprehensive Content Discovery & Engagement solution portfolio, and more specifically its patent-pending DEEP platform for TV content enrichment on the second screen, Viaccess-Orca created ways to cope with multiple metadata formats and providers.  We are excited to jump on the EIDR band wagon to address even better our customer needs,” said Alain Nochimowski, Vice President, Business Development of Viaccess-Orca.

“This continued EIDR growth in Europe is particularly exciting as it is led by companies that are transforming the content ecosystem,” said Don Dulchinos, Executive Director of EIDR.

Other global companies who have recently joined EIDR include Google, Microsoft and Technicolor.
