The IP-Digital Set Top Box (IP-DSTB) enables the implementation of "triple-play" data, voice and video services in the home including the sharing of photos, music, data, voice and video with networked consumer electronics devices, entertainment PCs and mobile devices. This platform plays a key role in emerging business models, such as the delivery of IP-TV and video-on-demand (VoD) over broadband, which is made possible by emerging advanced codecs implemented in software. The platform also supports the deployment of other services, which can generate recurring revenue streams, such as online gaming subscriptions. This paper provides an overview of the platform, including hardware and software building blocks and available development tools.
