The Service List Registry enables media service providers to announce their services to compatible devices, displays, agents, and applications.
For media providers with existing audiovisual media services, the metadata can be configured in a matter of hours, rather than days, weeks or months.
Media providers can use the platform to register and administer their offering on a self-service basis, or reference separate systems to handle different elements of their service.
Resources required typically include:
Media — DVB network and service identifiers of broadcast channels or references to the DVB-DASH or HLS manifests of online streams.
Applications — URL references to associated online interactive services such as HbbTV applications and HTML web apps.
Images — PNG images for logos to identify services or applications, and images to represent programmes.
Listings — Programme information available in a suitably structured format for use in service schedules and programme catalogues.
