Wyplay, a creator of software solutions for leading pay-TV operators, announced today the opening of Frog by Wyplay, an initiative that aims to free all actors in the TV ecosystem from being locked-in to proprietary solutions.

With the release of the first version of the Frog source code to our partners and licensees today through the Frog web portal, we are delivering on our promise to free the digital TV technology industry. said Wyplay CEO Jacques Bourgninaud. We look forward to our partners product and service deployments, based on our technology, with operators who will reap the benefits of an open source and collaborative approach.

Frog by Wyplay is the first independent open source software solution for pay-TV operators. This comprehensive solution includes access to the complete source code and all the components to build operators products. The initiative brings together a growing ecosystem of almost 40 companies across the entire digital TV technology value chain including chipset vendors, device manufacturers, independent software vendors, software service providers and operators.

Within this ecosystem, Frog introduces a marketplace of complementary 3rd-party solutions pre-integrated with Wyplays technology. The marketplace is readily accessible to all members of the Frog community, and includes technical assets and documentation on the http://www.frogbywyplay.com private portal.
