Dutch international channel BVN adds EPG data

June 27, 2019 11.13 Europe/London By Robert Briel

Dutch company Divitel has delivered Icareus Playout EPG solution to BVN, a Dutch-language public television channel for Dutch and Flemish people abroad

Icareus Playout EPG solution is used to contribute, manage and distribute EPG data to operators globally.

Icareus EPG offers a scalable and versatile EPG platform for BVN to support multiple operators with different network environments. The EIT information can be automatically ingested from different sources such as live streams, XML and text files. Icareus’ distributor and system integrator partner Divitel has been responsible for the sales, integration and operating of Icareus Playout EPG for BVN.

Icareus’ Director Mr Mikko Karppinen comments: “BVN’s global footprint with different networks, time-zones and uplinks presented a challenge to which Icareus Playout fitted perfectly with its multinetwork capabilities. Timeshifting EPG data at BVN head-end enabled them to take full control of the contribution and to optimise the delivery to different parts of the world. We are naturally very proud to be selected by BVN, the best Dutch language television via satellite.”.

Icareus Playout EPG solution offers Trusted Broadcast Technology enjoyed by leading broadcasters and operators globally for over a decade. Icareus Playout EP110 server is a full-scale PSI/SI generator server targeted for operators and broadcasters to manage their DVB multiplexes and channel line-ups. The tested integrations to multiplexes, EPG data providers, network management systems and Icareus Suite enable quick deployment and high reliability. Icareus global reseller and systems integrator partners offer high service levels and peace-of-mind to our customers. Icareus Playout EPG solutions have been deployed in broadcasting production since 2004.

Icareus Playout EPG is part of Icareus Playout broadcast head-end product family, which also includes Icareus CS DSM-CC Carousel servers for HbbTV and other interactive TV standards, Icareus Playout SSU servers for boot-loading the TV devices’ firmware and Icareus Playout Compact Lab solution for research, development and testing TV services.
