Set-top box - IPTV receiver

1 In IPTV networks, the set-top box is a small computer providing two-way communications

on an IP network and decoding the video streaming media. IP set-top boxes have a

built-in home network interface that can be Ethernet or one of the existing wire home

networking technologies such as HomePNA or the ITU-T G.hn standard, which provides a way to create a high-speed (up to 1Gbit/s)

local area network using existing home wiring (power lines, phone lines, and coaxial cables).


Set-top box - IPTV receiver

1 In the US and Europe, telephone companies use IPTV (often on ADSL

or optical fiber networks) as a means to compete with traditional local

cable television monopolies.


Telecommunications in Russia - IPTV

1 The IPTV developing fast as a cheap alternative to regular television. On July 2011 Rostelecom started a plan to unify IPTV services in Russia's regions offering standard features such as linear and on-demand TV along with new interactive

and OTT services provided by the operator to various mobile devices. For this Russian company SmartLabs was

chosen.

1 Country code top-level domain: RU (Also SU – left from Soviet Union)


G.hn - IPTV Home Networks

1 One of the problems faced by most providers of IPTV services is that in many

customers' homes the Residential gateway that provides connectivity with

the Broadband access network is not located in close proximity to the IPTV

Set-top box. This scenario becomes very common as service providers start to

offer service packages with multiple Set-Top Boxes per subscriber.


G.hn - IPTV Home Networks

1 Because G.hn supports any kind of home wiring, end users will often be able to install the IPTV home network

by themselves, thus reducing the cost to the service provider.

Internet Protocol Television - Hybrid IPTV

1 Hybrid IPTV refers to the combination of traditional broadcast TV services

and video delivered over either managed IP networks or the public Internet. It is an increasing trend in

both the consumer and pay TV [operator]

markets.[http://www.mrgco.com/press_releases.html#hstb09 ]



1 Hybrid IPTV has grown in popularity in recent years as a result of two major drivers



1 A hybrid set-top allows content from a range of sources, including Terrestrial

television|terrestrial broadcast, satellite, and cable, to be brought together with video delivered over the Internet via an Ethernet connection on the device. This enables television viewers to access a greater variety of content on their TV

sets, without the need for a separate box for each service.



1 Hybrid IPTV set-top boxes also enable users to access a range of advanced interactive services, such as Video on demand|VOD / catch-up TV, as well as Internet applications, including

video telephony, surveillance, gaming, shopping, e-government

accessed via a television set.



1 From a pay-TV operator’s perspective, a hybrid IPTV set-top box gives them greater long-term

flexibility by enabling them to deploy new services and applications as and when

consumers require, most often without the need to upgrade equipment or for an engineer to visit

and reconfigure or swap out the device. This minimises the cost of launching new services,

increases speed to market and limits disruption for

consumers.[http://www.v-net.tv/Webcast.aspx?id=5 ]



1 The first commercially available hybrid IPTV set-top box was

developed by Advanced Digital Broadcast, a developer of digital

television hardware and software, in 2005



1 An alternative approach is the IPTV version of the Headend in the Sky

cable TV solution. Here, multiple TV channels are distributed via satellite to the ISP or IPTV provider’s point of presence (POP) for IP-encapsulated distribution to individual subscribers

as required by each subscriber.



1 This can provide a huge selection of channels to subscribers without

overburdening Internet trunking to the POP, and enables an IPTV service to be offered to small or remote operators outside the reach

of terrestrial high speed broadband connection. An example is a network

combining fibre and satellite distribution via an SES New Skies satellite of 95 channels to Latin America and the Caribbean, operated

by IPTV Americas.https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html


1 Company factsheet and it is predicted that the majority of global IPTV growth will be fuelled by hybrid networks.[http://www.satellitetoday.com/via/ednote/140.html Future Looks

Internet Protocol Television - IPTV-based converged services

1 Within businesses and institutions, IPTV eliminates the need to run a

parallel infrastructure to deliver live and stored video services.


ShqipTV

1 Since January 2012, DigitAlb is available for the first in North

America through IPTV service via ShqipTV.


PCCW Limited - IPTV

1 now TV is an IPTV and pay-TV provider in Hong Kong. It is delivered

by PCCW Media, an operating division of HKT Group Holdings

Limited (HKT).


PCCW Limited - IPTV

1 now TV serves Hong Kong with more than 190 channels of local, Asian and international programming, including premium content such as Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A, French Ligue 1, J-

League, French Open, ATP World Tour, and World Snooker Tour


IPTV

1 'Internet Protocol television' ('IPTV') is a system through which television

services are delivered using the Internet protocol suite over a packet-

switched network such as the Internet, instead of being delivered

through traditional Terrestrial television|terrestrial, Satellite

television|satellite signal, and cable television|cable television formats.


IPTV

1 IPTV services may be classified into three

main groups:


IPTV

1 * live television, with or without interactivity related to the current TV show;


IPTV

1 * Time shifting|time-shifted television: catch-up TV (replays a TV

show that was broadcast hours or days ago), start-over TV (replays the current TV show from its beginning);


IPTV

1 IPTV is distinguished from Internet television by its on-going

standardization process (e.g., European Telecommunications

Standards Institute) and preferential deployment scenarios in subscriber-based telecommunications networks with high-speed access channels into end-user premises via set-top boxes

or other customer-premises equipment.


IPTV - Promise

1 The technology was hindered by low broadband penetration and by the

relatively high cost of installing wiring capable of transporting IPTV content

reliably in the customer's home. However, residential IPTV was expected to grow as broadband was available to more than

200 million households worldwide in 2005.[http://www.gartner.com/it/page.jsp?

id=501276 Gartner - 2007 Press releases]


IPTV - Promise

1 In December 2009, the FCC began looking into using set-top boxes to make TVs with

Multichannel video programming distributor|cable or similar services into network video players. FCC Media Bureau Chief Bill Lake had said earlier that TV and the Internet

would soon be the same, but only 75 percent of homes had computers, while 99 percent had TV. A 2009 Nielsen Company|Nielsen survey found 99 percent of video viewing

was done on TV.


IPTV - Elements

1 * TV head-end: where live TV channels are encoded, encrypted and delivered in the form of IP multicast

streams.


IPTV - Elements

1 * VOD platform: where on-demand video assets are stored and served when a user makes a request in the

form of IP unicast stream.


IPTV - Elements

1 * Interactive portal: allows the user to navigate within the different IPTV services, such as the VOD catalog.


IPTV - Elements

1 * Delivery network: the packet switched network that carries IP packets (unicast and

multicast).


IPTV - Elements

1 * Home gateway: the piece of equipment at the user's home that terminates the access link from the

delivery network.


IPTV - Elements

1 * User's set-top box: the piece of equipment at the user's home that decodes and decrypts TV and VOD content and displays it on the TV

screen.


IPTV - Advantages

1 The Internet protocol-based platform offers significant advantages,

including the ability to integrate television with other IP-based

services like high speed Internet access and VoIP.


IPTV - Advantages

1 A switched IP network also allows for the delivery of significantly more content and

functionality


IPTV - Video-on-demand

1 IPTV technology is bringing video-on-demand (VoD) to

television,[http://www.tvgenius.net/blog/2010/04/06/broadband-users-control-watch/

Broadband Users Control What They Watch and When] which permits a customer to

browse an online program or film catalog, to watch trailers and to then select a selected recording. The playout of the selected item

starts nearly instantaneously on the customer's TV or PC.



1 Technically, when the customer selects the movie, a Point-to-Point

Protocol|point-to-point unicast connection is set up between the

customer's decoder (set-top box or PC) and the delivering streaming server. The signalling for the trick play functionality (pause, slow-

motion, wind/rewind etc.) is assured by RTSP (Real Time Streaming

Protocol).https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html


1 In an attempt to avoid content piracy, the VoD content is usually encrypted. Whilst encryption of

satellite and cable TV broadcasts is an old practice, with IPTV technology it can effectively be thought of as a

form of Digital rights management. A film that is chosen, for example, may

be playable for 24 hours following payment, after which time it

becomes unavailable.https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html

IPTV - Privacy implications

1 In conjunction with regulatory differences between IPTV and cable TV this tracking could pose a threat

to privacy according to critics.[http://www.cedmagazine.com/iptv-

privacy-risks.aspx IPTV privacy risks] For IP multicast scenarios, since a

particular multicast group (TV channel) needs to be requested

before it can be viewed, the same privacy concerns apply.


IPTV - Service bundling

1 For residential users, IPTV is often provided in conjunction with video on demand and may be bundled with Internet services such as Internet access and Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)

telecommunications services. Commercial bundling of IPTV, VoIP and Internet access is sometimes referred to in marketing as triple

play (telecommunications)|triple play service. When these three are offered with cellular

service, the combined service may be referred to as quadruple play.


Canal Digital - IPTV

1 An IPTV service was launched in Sweden in 2004. It offers most of

channels also provided on the Satellite Platform as well as

Interactive Television services and Video On Demand from C More

Select, C More On demand, Film-To-Home and SF Anytime.


DETV (Malaysian IPTV service)

1 'DETV' is a Malaysian IPTV based Pay TV service owned by DE Multimedia Sdn. Bhd.,

a joint venture founded by REDtone International Bhd and Zhong Nan Enterprise (M) Bhd. It was officially been launched on

26th Jan 2010.[http://www.theedgemalaysia.com/busi

ness-news/158456-redtone-launches-iptv.html REDTone Launches IPTV] Many of

its channels are sourced from mainland China and Taiwan.

Comparison between OTT and IPTV

1 OTT (Over the Top Technology) and IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) are two growing technology mediums in the media distribution industry that are in place in the market, yet not being used to their full capacity by

advertisers or the critical mass.


Comparison between OTT and IPTV

1 Both are systems through which television services are delivered using the Internet, instead of the

traditional terrestrial, satellite signal and cable television formats. However there are several

differences between the two, mainly that IPTV is delivered over a service provider’s own infrastructure, while OTT comes over the public Internet.


Comparison between OTT and IPTV - OTT

1 This is in contrast to purchase or rental of video or audio content from

an Internet provider, such as pay television video on demand or an

IPTV video service, like ATT U-Verse


Comparison between OTT and IPTV - IPTV

1 'Internet Protocol television' 'IPTV' is a system through which television services are delivered using the

Internet protocol suite over a packet-switched network such as the

Internet, instead of being delivered through traditional Terrestrial television|terrestrial, Satellite

television|satellite signal, and cable television|cable television formats.


Comparison between OTT and IPTV - Comparison

1 The main difference between OTT and IPTV is that though both use

internet, OTT streaming is delivered through open unmanaged internet,

while IPTV use a dedicated, managed network.


Comparison between OTT and IPTV - Comparison

1 OTT has been gaining widespread popularity over the past two years

with relatively low cost service providers like Netflix, Hulu, MyTV

(Arabic)|myTV and many more, and provides more freedom, convenience

and empowerment to users which gives a greater role for content

providers to have a direct relationship with viewers.


Comparison between OTT and IPTV - OTT or IPTV?

1 This has already happened in the UK, however it is not likely in France where IPTV is very popular and

subscribers account for around 25% of the population (10.25 million

people)



1 Studies show that in Western Europe, the number of households cutting the cord to use IPTV will increase from 9.2 million to 11.33 million

(8.9% growth) between 2013 and 2018, while OTT will just account for

5.6 million pay-TV services.



1 Some companies such as Informa Telecoms and Media claimed that by 2015 the number of people watching online videos through devices such as TVs, game stations and set-top boxes will be more than double the number of IPTV subscribers. Based on their forecast of the UK market, IPTV is said to be reduced to being used by 3.6 million as, OTT will rise

to nearly $3 billion in 2014. https://store.theartofservice.com/itil-2011-foundation-complete-certification-kit-fourth-edition-study-guide-ebook-and-online-course.html


1 The Broadband World Forum based their research worldwide. In Europe,

France and Belgium already have maturing IPTV territories. Asia

improved at 50% growth rate in 2011, and in the Middle East and

Africa there was a 63.5% percentage growth.



1 SNL Kagan estimated that between 2010 and 2013, there will be a jump from 46.2 million to almost 60 million

people who will be using IPTV worldwide.



1 Pyramid Research stated that IPTV service reached $11.8 billion and increased 45% between 2009 and 2010. Through their research, the

firm expects IPTV service revenue to increase at 25%, tripling by 2015.

This will mean that IPTV will represent 15% of the total pay-TV

revenue in 2015, rather than the 6% of today.



1 However it is generally accepted that the smartest route companies have taken would be to accommodate the needs of both IPTV and OTT users, like ABOX42 which showcased its

new set-top box the M12 in January 2013, which works with both

services.


Síminn - IPTV

1 In early 2004, Iceland Telecom decided to expand its services to

include Live TV and, now, Video on Demand a move to answer
