Viiv /ˈvaɪv/ was a platform initiative from Intel similar to Intel's Centrino and vPro. Initially (through release 1.7),[1] it was a collection of computer technologies with a particular combination of Intel ingredients to support a "media PC" concept. Intel also provided the Media Server as the core software stack on the PC to support "media" distribution through the home.
Marketing
[edit]
Until 2007, Viiv was Intel's attempt to become the center of electronic-based home entertainment. Intel was repeating the marketing model for the very successful Centrino platform, which was their first branded platform. The Intel Viiv brand has been "de-emphasized" and comes after the CPU branding, similar to that of "Core 2 with Viiv inside", putting more focus on the CPU.[2]
There will be no additional releases beyond 1.7.1 of the media server product.
