With an original thematic channel concept and access to a substantial library of unique content, the founders of the Drive-in Movie Channel were looking for a broadcast quality, future-proofed and flexible cloud playout solution able to offer a fast and easy launch from a centralised cloud-based platform, across Europe. Start-up broadcasters and content owners such as the Drive-In Movie Channel face the challenge of delivering professional, industry-standard channels while avoiding cumbersome commitments associated with hardware-based playout solutions, whether in-house or wrapped up in playout solutions from service providers (often hosting the same hardware). The channel is delivered to Free and Bouygues Telecom IPTV platforms in France.
Drive-In Movies is a brand new vintage cinema channel delivering a variety of genres: from classics of the 50s, 60s and 70s, to the experimental films of the 70s; from the stars of the silent era (Rudolph Valentino, Mary Pickford, Lon Chaney, Douglas Fairbanks) to the legends of American comedy (Buster Keaton, Bob Hope, Laurel and Hardy), and from the great Hollywood dramas to classic science-fiction and horror flick B-movies from the likes of Roger Corman.
