Thanks in Advance!!
I am the Engineering Director for a company that builds fitness console equipment. Our multimedia consoles receive normal ATSC/NTSC/QAM signals to display TV Video. I would like to add the capability of receiving IPTV as well. So, in a sense, this multimedia console would act like a STB and TV built in it.
As I am diving into this capability, the main question is how does a STB know how to communicate to an IPTV provider?
Now, in the ATSC/NTSC/QAM, it is easy to understand decode the modulation to determine valid channels and the display per that channel when the user selects it.
Any guidance/direction to what I am looking for is great. Any body at AT&T can point me out to their new product development group would also be appreciated.
