The DVB Project has announced a new initiative that will support companies and organisations deploying DVB-I services and technologies.
The DVB-I Implementers Task Force will foster collaboration, share expertise, and promote a harmonised approach to DVB-I implementation across different markets.
DVB-I is the internet-centric mechanism to signal and discover television services, whether they are delivered over IP networks or broadcast networks. The information is then presented to the TV viewer, typically in an EPG without the need for a separate app.
“The launch of this task force reflects DVB’s commitment to not only developing open specifications but also supporting their real-world deployment,” said Ranjeet Kaur, Programme Director at Digital TV Group (DTG), who will chair the new group. “By bringing implementers together, we hope to encourage dialogue, tackle common challenges, and work towards interoperability and a thriving DVB-I ecosystem.”
The DVB-I Implementers Task Force will be a subgroup of DVB’s commercial working group on DVB-I and is open to all DVB Member.
