Italy - RAI trials IPTV/DTT hybrid set-top boxes

Rai Nuovi Media and RaiNet have launched an IPTV/DTT trial using a hybrid set-top box.

As part of the trial, viewers will be able to access content from the DTT and IPTV platforms and access new services such as time-shifting, video on demand, personalisation, and new forms of advertising.

According to RAI, interoperability and use of the service regardless of the user’s broadband connectivity provider are key features of the trial service.
