SARFT introduced a comprehensive application of smart TV operating system

Netease Technology News July 9 news, SARFT recently issued a circular calling for vigorous development of smart TV operating system TVOS 1.0 scale application test. In the experiment, terminals such as smart TV set-top boxes purchased or integrated by various cable network companies that are developed or installed should be installed using TVOS1.0 software and no other operating systems except TVOS should be installed.

SARFT said that on the basis of the trial, the introduction of a comprehensive promotion of the application of intelligent television operating system TVOS1.0, to promote standardization of radio and television terminal intelligent guidance.

Late last month, media reports said that SARFT requires Internet TV licensees to immediately close the illegal video software download channels in Internet TV end products. Earlier this month, the General Administration once again said that the integrated Internet TV service license will no longer be issued, and only after the approval of the Press, Publication, Administration of Radio, Film and Television agencies, are eligible for Internet TV content platform business.

In order to speed up the standardization and intelligent development of radio and television terminals, speed up the interconnection and business intercommunication of NGB networks, promote the innovation of radio and television formats, enhance the information and security control ability of radio and television and enhance the core competitiveness of radio and television networks, Joint research with the relevant units, developed a NGB smart TV operating system, and on December 26, 2013, the organization acceptance and release of the TVOS1.0 smart TV operating system software.

TVOS 1.0 software has a hierarchical and open architecture covering digital TV functional components and support for downloadable conditional access technology standards to meet the manageable, safe and reliable technical requirements, compatible with NGB terminal middleware, open source TVM virtual machine mechanism compatible with other intelligent operating system applications, reflecting the business characteristics of the radio network and the Internet, the existing application resources can be used to build a television application ecosystem. The successful research and development and release of TVOS1.0 is of great significance for ensuring the cultural safety of triple play and supporting the digital, networked and intelligent development of radio and television.

The cable television network companies should be facing the actual network, business and security management needs, focus on the standardization of radio and television terminal intelligent, to carry out large-scale application of TVOS1.0 test. In the experiment, all terminals of cable television set-top boxes purchased or integrated by all cable TV network companies should be installed and used TVOS1.0 software, no other operating systems except TVOS should be installed, and GY / T255-2012 " Next Generation Broadcasting Network Downloadable Conditional Access System Specification "and GY / T267-2012" Technical Specification for Next Generation Broadcasting Network (NGB) Terminal Middleware ". TVOS1.0 software to source code sharing (open source) approach by the Chinese Academy of Sciences to all cable networks and related terminal manufacturers to provide. Academy of Sciences Contact: Xie Wei (010-86092429), Chen Delin (010-86091335).

All CATV network companies should further test the application of TVOS1.0 and corresponding smart TV set-top boxes through the TVOS1.0 scale application trial to explore the process and mode of TVOS1.0 smart TV terminal operation and management and corresponding business innovation modes, TV terminal standardization of intelligent work to promote, summarize the successful demonstration of large-scale promotion of successful experiences and methods. Please all cable and television network companies in a timely manner to the Department of Science and Technology report on the progress of the work, and follow the "one successful report one" principle, as soon as possible report to the relevant experimental work summary report. The Administration will summarize the successful experience of TVOS1.0 scale application test in time and choose the excellent cable TV network company to hold the demonstration promotion site working conference. On this basis, the TVOS1.0 will be popularized and popularized and the TV operation system TVOS1.0 will be promoted and popularized. Terminal standardized intelligent guidance.

All departments and units are requested to promptly forward this passage to all cable television network companies and relevant units in their respective jurisdictions and supervise their implementation.
