Case Study: Telekom Slovenije achieves 20% faster startup, multi-DRM protection and seamless cross-device streaming with Bitmovin

Leveraging Bitmovin’s streaming video capabilities for the next generation of home entertainment

Telekom Slovenije, a leading South-Eastern European telco, launched NEO — a next-generation smart living and entertainment platform with voice control in the local language, Pay-TV, gaming and e‑commerce. To deliver a seamless multiscreen experience the operator faced several challenges: reliably streaming high-quality video to TVs, smartphones, tablets and PCs; providing consistent, customizable UIs across devices; meeting Hollywood‑grade content protection (multi‑DRM) requirements; and gaining end‑to‑end QoS visibility to optimize playback.

Telekom Slovenije adopted Bitmovin Player and Analytics: a unified, cross‑platform player with Widevine/PlayReady/FairPlay DRM and native SDKs plus real‑time analytics to tune encoding and CDN delivery. The solution cut average startup time by 20%, significantly reduced buffering, and drove a 30% drop in streaming‑related support tickets, while freeing the team to build differentiated features and maintain a competitive edge.
