NetUP TVoD & Time-Shifted TV server
Delayed TV program viewing can be considered the most demanding among all interactive TV services. Only IPTV technology provides a user with a possibility to pause or rewind TV programs. Such service is referred to as Time-Shifted TV. In addition, TV on Demand service is intended for viewing recent TV programs by choosing the TV program from the archive.
Access to TVoD and Time-Shifted TV
A TV channel received from a satellite or a broadcasting station is recorded on the server. On browsing the recorded media content on IP set-top boxes, information about the TV program start time is displayed. This information is provided to the system either manually or automatically from EPG. Browsing the recorded TV programs can be done using the program start markers or by simply choosing an arbitrary date and time.
TV on Demand and Time-Shifted TV services are implemented in the same server. The device is identical to the VOD server, includes 4 hot-swappable SATA-II HDD's, 1 TB each. That corresponds to approximately 2000 hours of recorded TV programs. It is possible to connect several TVoD servers into a cluster to provide the TVoD service in distributed networks.
The Conditional Access plug-in allows encrypting the output streams on the fly to protect media content from unauthorized access.
