In addition to mobile devices, HLS is proving highly popular for delivery of Internet based video services to consumer STBs and TVs. Dedicated STB devices provide an effective route to deliver the highest quality Internet TV video services to the living room.
ViewRight Web for STB secures OTT services to HLS-enabled STBs in a similar manner - both in terms of security functionality and architectural approach - to other ViewRight Web clients. ViewRight Web for STB provides complementary device authentication and entitlement verification functions to implementations of the baseline HLS protocol and the built-in media player functions of the STB. ViewRight Web for STB is implemented as a portable security client library ready for integration on any STB platform.
Importantly, ViewRight Web for STB can co-exist and operate in parallel with other ViewRight STB clients, including those for IPTV and DVB. Dual clients enable operators to deliver content via both managed and unmanaged networks to the same STB, thus providing for enhanced service and revenue opportunities.
