- IPTV service is a service for providing information, moving picture contents, and broadcasting on a TV through an IP network, that is, an ultra-high speed Internet network.
- IPTV service As services combining communication and broadcasting have been widely distributed, there is increased interest in IPTV service. Therefore, wide distribution of the IPTV service may largely affect the content industry and electrical appliances, as well as the communication and broadcasting industries.
- the subscriber in order for a subscriber of the IPTV service to use the IPTV service through the IP network, the subscriber requires a set-top box that is specific for an IPTV vendor. Only the user having the specific IPTV set-top box that is manufactured according to specifications set by the IPTV service provider may use the IPTV service of the corresponding IPTV service provider. For example, when there are three IPTV service providers, that is, Company A, Company B, and Company C, subscribers who bought the set-top box of company A may only use the IPTV service provided by company A, and they should buy an additional set-top box of company B or company C in order to subscribe for the IPTV service provided by company B or company C.
- the above problem of compatibility between the IPTV service and the set-top box limits a range of selection, and thus, quality of the IPTV service may be degraded and expansion of the IPTV service may be restricted.
- IPTV forum In order to address the above compatibility problem, an open IPTV forum has been recently established to discuss standardization of the set-top box. In this forum, a common standard that is independent from the IPTV service providers and providing the service subscribers with the IPTV service based on the common standard are being discussed.
