ITV SUITE PLAYER

RENDERING ENGINE FOR SET-TOP BOXES

Icareus has developed an extremely light and flexible engine for broadcasting iTV applications developed with iTV Suite Authoring Tool.

iTV Suite Player is where Icareus' engineers really show what they are capable of, by ensuring that interactive applications obtain high performace in terms of speed, reliability, loading time, thus ensuring a great experience to the viewers.

iTV Suite Player plays the application files on the set-top boxes. iTV Suite Player has been tested on main middlewares and is compatible with MHP 1.0.3 stack and is continuosly developed, due to the evolving environment.

iTV Suite Player is shared among all iTV Suite applications resulting in major bandwidth savings: in fact, java classes used in different applications need to be broadcasted only once. Moreover, once iTV Suite Player is downloaded on the set-top box with the first application launched by the viewer, all the other applications will utilize it and in this way downloading times drop dramatically.
