TVCaster Series by Motama - The next generation IPTV server appliances
Kick-off for Motama's new product family to drive advanced IPTV services
(firmenpresse) - Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), meaning the transmission of
digital television over the Internet or local area networks, is
becoming increasingly important. IPTV not only allows for serving
millions of users with broadband content, but also provides
transmission of content in hospitality and health care, in
universities, schools, and corporations, and in IP networks in private
homes. As the demand for IPTV services grows, also the requirements
and expectations on the underlying technical infrastructure grow.
Motama, a leading supplier of distributed multimedia solutions,
presents the next generation of IPTV server appliances called
TVCaster. TVCaster is a turn-key solution offering all cutting-edge
functionality you expect from an integrated DVB receiver,
remultiplexer, and IP streaming server. In addition, TVCaster offers
advanced features, such as ultra-fast channel switching for individual
users, integrated video recorder, extended streaming protocols, and
clustering support. This all comes with unmatched openness and full
programmability that allows you to seamlessly integrate the TVCaster
appliance into your IPTV workflow.
As a first product within the new TVCaster product family, TVCaster
200-S2 offers access to SDTV and HDTV channels received by
DVB-S2. While traditional DVB gateways only support re-transmission of
content, TVCaster appliances support different modes: In Corporate
Mode, UDP or RTP streams can be configured to serve large groups of
users using unicast or multicast networking. In Home Mode, each tuner
can be assigned to a specific user or client device, which allows to
access the full selection of TV channels with ultra-fast channel
switching times. In Middleware Mode, the TVCaster acts as freely
programmable stream processing appliance which can be seamlessly
integrated into customized IPTV workflows, also including a TCP based
reliable and optimized transmission of Live-TV.
Further comfort features such as automatic channel search and a fully
programmable digital video recorder with 1 TB hard disk further
distinguish TVCaster products from others.
The built-in clustering support provides scalability. The number of
tuners can simply be extended with additional appliances while still
being configured with a single log-in to a Web interface. The
redundancy and failover management features of the TVCaster product
family allow meeting the requirements of large installations and
greatly reduce operational costs.
The free Software Development Kit (SDK) allows customers to easily
access and configure all these features. It also includes source code
for a streaming client demonstrating ultra-fast channel switching. The
SDK is based on the award-winning Network-Integrated Multimedia
Middleware (NMM) by Motama and available Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X.
