NeuLion/DivX launches mobile video sharing service

DivX, acquired by NeuLion earlier this year, has been working with Eurocal Group to develop a comprehensive suite of apps and services to support 4K HD video sharing between mobile and a variety of home entertainment devices.

Eurocal also helped NeuLion/Divx expand into Android 4.1 and above as well as the Chromecast applications, iOS7.x devices, Broadcom browsers and an LG/WebOS platforms. Development included:

  • Android: Java’ Cling UPNP library
  • iOS: Swift, Upnpx
  • DLNA
  • HTML5
  • JavaScript
  • Angular JS

“Eurocal Group delivered working demo on very tight timeframe and continues to support our technology roadmap,” said Kanaan Jemli, CEO of NeuLion/DivX.

NeuLion chose to work with Eurocal Group because of its broad range of development capabilities from an experienced team of 400+ engineers and the ability to assemble a focused design team and begin projects within 2 weeks working from minimal specifications. The Eurocal Group team was self-managing delivering the full stack of architecture, design, QA and documentation services but were also an important augmentation of in-house technical expertise at significantly lower costs.

At the end of the project, NeuLion had a bulletproof  video sharing platform delivered on time and under budget with major contributions to product spec and architecture, and a scalable SWAT engineering team available on demand for future projects.
