Their Windows OS solution supports XP and Vista and complies with Microsoft’s broadcast driver architecture, delivering a standard interface for middleware, media decoders, and application software. The Linux OS solution suits mobile PC platforms such as sub-notebooks, mobile Internet devices, and UMPC platforms.

"By combining Luxoft's driver architecture expertise for PC platforms with the Mirics FlexiTV broadcast receiver, PC OEMs and ODMs now have an off-the-shelf TV solution for today’s PC platforms," says Michael Friedland, executive vice president with Luxoft.
