Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies	2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies The Company’s accounting policies are consistent with those presented in its annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2016. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all footnote disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, for the year ended December 31, 2016, as they appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the disclosures made in the accompanying notes. Despite the Company’s intention to establish accurate estimates and use reasonable assumptions, actual results may differ from these estimates. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described below and elsewhere in these notes to the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2017, the Company’s significant accounting policies and estimates remain unchanged from those detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, except as follows: Assets Held for Sale In a period where the plan of sale criteria of Accounting Standards Codification 360 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets” are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes in measurement are reflected in results from operations, however, gains are not recognized in excess of the cumulative loss previously recognized. New accounting standards Recently Adopted In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value. This ASU defines net realizable value as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions. Under this amended guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement in the period in which the awards vest or are exercised. In the statement of cash flows, excess tax benefits will be classified with other income tax cash flows in operating activities. The amended guidance also gives the option to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur and increases the threshold for awards that are partially settled in cash to qualify for equity classification. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company had historically estimated the number of forfeitures as part of its option valuation process and will continue to do so under the new guidance. No aspect of the guidance that requires retrospective adoption impacted the Company. Not Yet Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition, which provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers and superseded most existing revenue recognition guidance. The main principle under this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue at the amount it expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers. The Company has identified the predominant changes to its accounting policies resulting from the application of this guidance and is in the process of quantifying the impact on its consolidated financial statements. The cumulative effect of the initial adoption will be reflected as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the date of the application of the guidance. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842), which superseded previous lease guidance. Under this guidance, for all leases with terms in excess of one year, including operating leases, the Company will be required to recognize on its balance sheet a lease liability and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The new guidance retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria is substantially similar to previous guidance. Additionally, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated balance sheets. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which (i) significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model; and (ii) provides for recording credit losses on available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities through an allowance account. The update also requires certain incremental disclosures. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Business Combinations [Abstract]
Business Combination	3. Business Combination On June 3, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of Saffron Digital Limited (“Saffron Digital”), operating in the United Kingdom, in an all-cash asset transaction for total consideration of $9,000, of which $7,500 was paid on closing and $1,500 was paid in September 2016. The Saffron Digital solution, which has been integrated into the NeuLion Digital Platform, helps customers build digital video services for entertainment delivered over-the-top to Internet-connected devices. These digital video services support advanced implementations of subscription video on demand, electronic sell-through and advertising-supported video. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805 — Business Combinations. Accordingly, the results of operations of Saffron Digital have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the respective estimates of fair value as of the date of the acquisition and are based on assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable given the information currently available. The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. In connection with this transaction, the Company incurred no acquisition-related expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 (acquisition-related expenses during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $102). The total purchase price for Saffron Digital has been allocated as follows: Prepaid expenses and deposits $ 53 Property, plant and equipment 14 Intangible assets 7,200 Goodwill 1,733 Net assets acquired $ 9,000 The following are the identifiable intangible assets acquired and their respective useful lives as of the acquisition date, as determined based on valuations: Useful Life Amount (years) Developed technology $ 3,900 5 Customer relationships 3,300 5 $ 7,200

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Loss Per Share	6. Loss Per Share Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the dilutive effect of restricted stock units, stock options and warrants utilizing the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted net loss per share follows: Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used in calculating basic EPS 278,644,282 282,072,241 278,072,525 282,244,706 Effect of dilutive preferred stock, restricted stock units, stock options and warrants - - - - Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used in calculating diluted EPS 278,644,282 282,072,241 278,072,525 282,244,706 The following table summarizes the potential common stock equivalents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share, because to do so would have been antidilutive.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Geographic Information	7. Geographic Information The Company’s assets and operations are located primarily in the United States. The Company operates in one segment. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information about revenue by geographic region. There are no segment managers who are held accountable by the chief operating decision maker for operations, operating results, and planning for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. The Company has therefore determined that it has a single operating segment. Total revenue from customers, based on the location of the customers, was as follows: Three months ended September 30, Nine months ended September 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 North America $ 12,444 57 % $ 15,807 66 % $ 42,048 60 % $ 49,056 66 % Asia 5,347 24 % 5,104 21 % 16,124 23 % 16,317 22 % Europe 3,852 17 % 2,543 11 % 10,488 15 % 6,791 9 % Australia 405 2 % 403 2 % 1,132 2 % 2,097 3 % $ 22,048 100 % $ 23,857 100 % $ 69,792 100 % $ 74,261 100 % Total property and equipment, categorized by the location of the assets, was as follows: September 30, 2017 Cost Accumulated Net book Value North America $ 24,329 $ 19,618 $ 4,711 Asia 1,230 938 292 Europe 4,527 868 3,659 $ 30,086 $ 21,424 $ 8,662 December 31, 2016 Cost Accumulated Net book Value North America $ 29,458 $ 16,617 $ 12,841 Asia 1,318 939 379 Europe 2,719 1,712 1,007 $ 33,495 $ 19,268 $ 14,227

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	8. Income Taxes The tax provision (benefit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $173 and $(163), respectively, compared to $1,155 and $3,033 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records adjustments as necessary. In the current quarter it was determined that a small change in the Company’s estimated income could produce a significant change in the annual effective rate given the worldwide projections and permanent differences. Consequently, the actual effective rate through the quarter is the best estimate of the annual effective rate. The annual provision for income taxes is primarily comprised of current and deferred tax expense in the U.S. and in profitable cost-plus foreign jurisdictions, and foreign withholding taxes. The difference between the annual tax provision and the expected statutory rate is primarily due to losses in foreign jurisdictions without tax benefit and non-deductible tax expenses. As of September 30, 2017, the Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance to offset certain foreign and state deferred income tax assets, as realization of such assets does not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. The Company does not believe there are any material uncertain tax positions under Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes”.

Assets Held for Sale	10. Assets Held for Sale The net book value of the assets held for sale consisted of the following: As of September 30, December 31, 2017 2016 Land $ 2,509 $ - Building 4,324 - $ 6,833 $ - As of June 30, 2017, the Company reclassified its office building located in Melville, New York (the “property”) to assets held for sale since it is probable that it will be sold within one year. The Company considered converting the property into its corporate headquarters, however now believes there are other advantageous opportunities with greater long-term benefits. On October 18, 2017, the Company entered into a contract to sell the property, subject to due diligence, for $7,300. Taking into consideration the contracted sales price, less the expected selling costs, at September 30, 2017 the Company estimated that the fair value of the property was $6,833. Since the net book value of the assets held for sale was $7,228, an impairment loss of $395 was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	11. Contingencies On the night of August 26, 2017, the Company experienced a problem during its streaming of the Mayweather vs. McGregor pay per view boxing event that affected a significant number of UFC.TV users. The Company does not believe the issue was systemic or fundamental to the NeuLion Digital Platform or the Company’s underlying technology. The Company has been working in collaboration with the UFC to process refunds for purchasers who were unable to view the fight. On September 1, 2017, the Company was named along with several other parties in a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada that claims to have been filed on behalf of the affected purchasers. The Company has subsequently been named, along with other parties, in two other similar class action lawsuits in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (filed September 14, 2017) and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (filed September 13, 2017). A motion to consolidate these three class action lawsuits along with several other class action lawsuits filed against unrelated streaming providers of the same pay per view event is pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. While the Company disagrees with many of the allegations set forth in the class action lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself (including but not limited to defenses based upon the lack of any contractual relationship between the Company and the affected purchasers), the Company believes that the refund program will render the lawsuits moot. In the ordinary course of business, in addition to the above disclosed matters, the Company may be contingently liable for other litigation and a party to claims. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made where required for such contingencies. Although the extent of potential costs and losses, if any, is uncertain, management believes that the ultimate resolution of such contingencies will not have an adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Assets Held for Sale	Assets Held for Sale In a period where the plan of sale criteria of Accounting Standards Codification 360 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets” are met, long-lived assets are reported as held for sale, depreciation and amortization cease, and the assets are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Subsequent changes in measurement are reflected in results from operations, however, gains are not recognized in excess of the cumulative loss previously recognized.
New accounting standards	New accounting standards Recently Adopted In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, which changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value. This ASU defines net realizable value as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The new guidance must be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017, which did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09 - Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions. Under this amended guidance, all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies will be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement in the period in which the awards vest or are exercised. In the statement of cash flows, excess tax benefits will be classified with other income tax cash flows in operating activities. The amended guidance also gives the option to make a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur and increases the threshold for awards that are partially settled in cash to qualify for equity classification. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the accounting guidance as of January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company had historically estimated the number of forfeitures as part of its option valuation process and will continue to do so under the new guidance. No aspect of the guidance that requires retrospective adoption impacted the Company. Not Yet Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition, which provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers and superseded most existing revenue recognition guidance. The main principle under this guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue at the amount it expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of goods or services to customers. The Company has identified the predominant changes to its accounting policies resulting from the application of this guidance and is in the process of quantifying the impact on its consolidated financial statements. The cumulative effect of the initial adoption will be reflected as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the date of the application of the guidance. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 – Leases (Topic 842), which superseded previous lease guidance. Under this guidance, for all leases with terms in excess of one year, including operating leases, the Company will be required to recognize on its balance sheet a lease liability and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The new guidance retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria is substantially similar to previous guidance. Additionally, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated balance sheets. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 – Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which (i) significantly changes the impairment model for most financial assets that are measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments from an incurred loss model to an expected loss model; and (ii) provides for recording credit losses on available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities through an allowance account. The update also requires certain incremental disclosures. These amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This guidance removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. Under the amended guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will now be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
