Webinar: Encoding and packaging for DVB-I services (March 2020)


Some of the questions posted during the webinar were answered via the Q&A interface by Paul Higgs and Jon Piesing. You can read the answers here.

The DVB-I specification offers an internet-centric solution for linear television services. While DVB-I service lists can reference services delivered via broadband and/or broadcast, the specification was developed primarily to bring the user-friendliness and robustness of traditional digital television to broadband viewers.

This webinar considers the key technologies for broadband delivery of linear television content. It begins with a short introduction from Paul Higgs, who is the chair of DVB’s TM-I working group.

This webinar is the first part of a three-part series based on the pre-conference masterclass that was planned for DVB World 2020. The conference was cancelled owing to concerns around COVID-19.
