Sofia Digital has delivered Sofia Backstage® Publisher 2.0 to Channel Four Finland (Nelonen). Sofia Backstage® Publisher 2.0 is a server which provides simple, easy-to-use methods for controlling and publishing content for MHP applications.

Publisher offers flexible open interfaces to content sources enabling a fully automatic end-to-end content flow. It is compatible with various DSM-CC object carousels such as Thales Coral® used by Channel Four Finland.

For iTV services which do not get their content from content management systems, Sofia Backstage® Publisher offers user management of its own. This enables channel operators to set up accounts for multiple content providers who then can log on to the Publisher system and upload their content for MHP services.
