MwareTV, a cloud-based multi-tenant platform provider, has integrated local ATSC 3.0 channels into its MwareTV app.
MwareTV is providing the technology platform for IPTV and OTT services with the option of a ready-licensed package of VoD and live television channels. This gives operators a single source and a single contract for television as a service.
The set-top box (STB) receives the ATSC 3.0 signal off air and inserts local channels into the channel list in the user interface, while channels can be selected to watch live and added to favourites.
The MwareTV cloud-native technology architecture supports delivery to all the widely used platforms for computers, tablets, smart TVs and set-top boxes. The company offers its own range of STBs, based on AndroidTV or AOSP operating systems.
Service providers are free to create their own user interface with the App Builder, using drag-and-drop tools without a need for any coding or design experience. Operating expenditure of the service is directly tied to the number of subscribers.
