9 Custom Channel List Deployment
9.1 BACKGROUND
The STBi3 IP Set Top Box is a small, powerful, unit designed to receive IP
streams, decode, and present to the user the IP-delivered content as simply
as if they were watching broadcast television.
When decoding and displaying content generated by ZeeVee content
sources, the discovery of the streams and the population of a channel list
and plan is automatic. The sources send “beacons” and the STBi3 units
receive those beacons, learn the sources, and populate a channel guide
and list for selection by the user.
There are cases where a custom channel list is desired:
• Restricting User Access to certain channels
• Adding custom names and logos
• Adding content to the STBi3 channel list that is NOT sourced by
ZeeVee
• streaming video files from a server, for example
Requirements:
All STBi3 units to participate in the remote guide must be connected
to a common network.
An accessible server capable of serving files.
A means for the manager to edit, install and manage the files on that
server.
