The IPTV solution provided by Hughes consists of 3 components: Amino’s AmiNET 124 set-top box, Envivio’s Broadcast Encoder, and, of course, the Hughes HN or HX Satellite broadband system. The streaming video content from a live studio or a pre-recorded source is converted to IP by Envivio’s Broadcast MPEG-4/2 streaming solution. The content is distributed as live multicast traffic to the AmiNET 124 via the Hughes satellite broadband system. The remote set-top boxes are fully controlled from the Hughes NOC, providing service providers with status and statistics for management and billing.
Network Managed Solution
To provide an IPTV solution which can be effectively managed at a central location, Hughes has developed and implemented software into the set-top box which allows an operator to monitor and control these remote devices. Some of the management functionality includes:
- Operational status
- Video encoding speed
- Transmission errors
- Administrative status
- Device uptime
