Android TV certified STB
Bringing experience and technology together

Android TV has been leading the paradigm shift in
the pay TV industry thanks to the endless services and
possibilities available on the platform.With the know-how we gathered while working with
Android TV OTT Set-Top Boxes, we not only offer a wide
array of services but also top notch hardware which may
include Wi-Fi or hybrid connectivity. We have experience
with traditional CAS integration and certification based on
TIF compatible MediaCAS plug-in architecture, and TR-069
client integration for efficient remote device management.
Hybrid solution and experience
With its Samsung Electronics’ DVB-T/T2/C/S2 hybrid STB development experience,
Innopia is a specialist in IP based and conventional TV service hybrid solution development.
Moreover, Innopia has developed the world’s first ATSC3.0 UHD broadcasting and OTT hybrid STB for the Korean market.
Innopia has advantages in developing ATSC3.0 STB, which is an IP-based standard for content delivery,
thanks to its knowledge and experience in both IP network technology and conventional TV services.
This ATSC3.0 STB was officially revealed, and pilot serviced for UHD Live broadcasting and
UHD Video-on-Demand (VoD) service during the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games in Korea.

We provide this service through Android TV TIF, based on our multicast player.
This STB has completed the latest Android TV certification, MediaCAS based NAGRA Connect NOCS certification and Netflix NTS certification.

Remote management solution
With Innopia's Cloud Remote Management Solution, using the TR-069 client over CWMP (CPE WAN Management Protocol),
service providers are able to manage and configure remote client devices without interfering with the end user.
Our Remote Management Solution commonly uses HTTP or HTTPS as transport for communication between CPE and the ACS.
The message exchange is using SOAP (XML_RPC) for configuration and management of the device.
The terminal management includes device grouping, App management, maintenance
and system management are available with customization according to customers specific requirements.

On-net and Off-net support
With pay TV providers actively introducing linear TV via OTT services to expand their service coverage for more subscribers, an effective solution is to deploy a set-top box that includes Unicast OTT on an open unmanaged network as an "Off-net" service, and Multicast IPTV on a managed network as an "On-net" service. Innopia has launched in September 2020 an Android TV IPTV/OTT Hybrid STB solution supporting both On-net and Off-net modes, providing seamless experience with linear IPTV and OTT.

Gamepad compatibility with Cloud Gaming
As the latency problem of cloud gaming is solved thanks to infrastructure and
network improvements, the market for playing high quality AAA grade
cloud-based games on light-client set-top boxes will expand. Especially since COVID-19, cloud gaming has expanded and will soon be one of the most
important services on Pay TV STBs. Since Google will add gamepad compatibility as a required test in a future smoke test, it is essential to ensure the compatibility between Cloud Gaming on Android TV and a game controller.
Innopia is ready for various Gaming platforms, and has developed its
own high-quality, high-performance and cost-effective Bluetooth game controller, ready to be deployed as an accessory to our Android TV STB.
