Norwegian DTT provider Riks TV has launched a new version of its hybrid set-top box.
Smartbox II has been developed by Zenterio OS, which provides an independent software platform for interactive TV, with the Riks TV implementation featuring integrated support for Wi-Fi and a more responsive remote control.
“As one of the largest pay TV distributors in Norway we strive to always be in the forefront and to offer the most advanced TV services on the market. With Zenterio OS, and this new hardware, we can continue to add new functionalities that offers a truly interactive TV experience to engage the viewers,” says Christopher Knudsen, CTO of RiksTV.
Around 150,000 of RiksTV’s 450,000 customers already have a set-top-box with Zenterio OS installed. Smartbox II will be rolled out from September and onwards to new customers and customers that are upgrading their set-top-boxes.
