At this years IBC, httv will release the first commercial version of its HbbTV Starter Kit, a lightweight play-out product for HbbTV services prototyping, validation and demo. This new product completes the httvs HbbTV product range.
Created for non Broadcast specialist, HbbTV Starter Kit enables to display HbbTV applications in real broadcast conditions, requiring only a PC and a modulation card. The software is a simplified version of httvStream HbbTV, the play-out solution chosen by the French DTT.
Globecast will be using HbbTV Starter Kit to show its demo with France24 during the IBC.
Sabrina Cheref, sales and marketing manager at httv, said: By releasing HbbTV Starter Kit as well as other new products such as Broadcast Application Manager, httv confirms its position towards the HbbTV standard: commitment and expertise. We are proud to have Globecast as a first customer.
Any HbbTV application type (Broadband, Broadcast or Hybrid) and service (News, Catch-up portal, VOD, EPG, etc.) can be broadcasted. It also handles stream events and the users may upload their own videos.
