Ludwigsburg, Germany, April 22, 20163 Screen Solutions (3SS), a leading provider of customized software solutions and services to the multiscreen digital entertainment industry, today announced that it was selected by German broadcaster ProSiebenSat.1 Pay TV GmbH to build its ran FIGHTING app for smart TVs.

ProSiebenSat.1 Pay TV GmbH commissioned 3 Screen Solutions to build the complete front end and elements of the backend for the new smart TV app.

The ran FIGHTING service has been launched and the 3SS-developed app is helping Samsung smart TV owners view and enjoy ran FIGHTING’s Martial Arts portfolio including the biggest boxing content archive available in the German TV market and major live Martial Arts events.

“ProSiebenSAT.1 Pay TV GmbH set an ambitious launch date target for the ran FIGHTING app, and we worked in very close collaboration with them throughout the development,” commented Kai-Christian Borchers, Managing Director of 3 Screen Solutions. “We are so delighted that we not only met our client’s deadline, we created an engaging application which will help more people to easily access the premium Martial Arts coverage in which ProSiebenSat.1 Pay TV GmbH has invested.”
