IPTV
It is a technology that delivers
video or TV broadcasts over the
Internet.
Internet TV, in simple terms, is
video and audio delivered over an
Internet connection. It's also known as Internet
protocol television, or IPTV.
You can watch Internet TV on a computer screen, a
television screen (through a set-top box) or a mobile
device like a cell phone.
History of IPTV

television show to be broadcasted over the Internet.

founding of Precept Software by Judith Estrin and
Bill Carrico .

EARLIER…..
the only ways to watch television were through

With cable TV, wires connect to your TV itself &
these wires run from your house to the nearest
cable TV station, which acts as one big antenna.

How IPTV works:
Two primary protocols involved in IPTV.
On-demand videos-
arranged like a playlist. Episodes or clips are
arranged by title or channel or in categories like
news, sports or music videos. You choose exactly
what you want to watch, when you want to watch
it.
How can IPTV compete with
existing TV services?
Price: Get your telephone, data and video (called a
“Triple Play”) for a monthly cost.
Return path: watching TV on an IP connected service
allows delivery of a wide range of extra services from
ads to interactive options.
An IPTV supplier can push out multiple new channels
across their existing bandwidth relatively easily.
