Israeli film and TV show guide specialist Jinni has launched its first Jinni-powered set-top-box, together with partner Belgacom. The set-top box provides TV subscribers with a user-centric content discovery and viewing experience over linear TV and VOD. Belgacom began offering the box from 19 June. Belgacom partnered with Jinni in September 2010 and took part in the startup's second round of funding, in early 2011. The already available platforms include an online service, mobile app and Connected TV app, all powered by the Jinni engine. The Jinni cross-platform experience is part of Belgacom's strategy, aimed at maintaining competitive advantage by offering a superior service to its customers. Belgacom TV subscribers will be able to opt-in to "Taste Channels," offering content that reflects the viewer's personal taste combinations. They will be able to opt-in for the "Live for Me" feature, which addresses the question "what's airing right now that I would enjoy?." Finally, Jinni's Entertainment Genome will enable viewers to search for available content in a semantic and intuitive manner, by searching using natural language metaphor. For example: a search query for "funny and cynical friendships in the city" will lead to results that would not have been found if looking under "Comedy" or "Drama."
