Live expert commentary and information overlays. Enhanced playback mode. Picture-in-picture functionality. Share and send to a friend. These are just some of the features that NBC required of its 2008 Summer Olympics video player. Microsoft and Schematic welcomed this high-profile opportunity to demonstrate just what Silverlight is capable of.The results say it all: 1.3 billion pageviews, 50+ million unique visitors, 70 million streams, 10 million hours of video watched. We established a new technological and creative benchmark for digital production, and crushed every U.S. digital record for a major event.
