Mediaset has confirmed it will test the new DVB-I standard in a trial starting next April.
The Italian commercial broadcaster demonstrated its DVB-I implementation during the annual Ultra HD Forum conference in Rome.
DVB-I mixes online and broadcast channels in a fashion so seamless that the viewer is in theory unable to distiquish the source.
Mediasat networks Canale 5, Italia 1, Rete 4 and 20 will participate in the trial. The channels will be broadcast over IP using the Multicast system.
