Features and Benefits of ‘Smart TV’
Smart TV provides advanced features and services that are not possible with traditional broadcast television systems. These advanced features include Time Shift Television (TSTV), Parental Control, Electronic Program Guide (EPG), Global Television Channels, Video on Demand (VoD), Near Video on Demand (NVoD) and many more interactive features.
• Time Shift Television (TSTV)
Time Shift Television is an exciting feature that allows viewers to playback live TV channels at any time they want. So when the viewer misses an important part of a movie, a play or a sporting event, he can view it by ‘rewinding’ that particular channel (displaying the symbol ), watching the missed part and then coming back to live action. This function will be available to the TV viewers for the first time in Pakistan and only through the PTCL Smart TV service.
• Parental Control
This feature enables parents to restrict certain channels which are not suitable for juvenile viewing. Restriction is enabled by assigning a password to particular channel(s) thus empowering parents to control the content their children can watch.
• EPG (Electronic Program Guide)
Electronic Program Guide (EPG) is an extremely responsive and feature-rich application that manages viewer interaction during channel and program selection. It is an on-screen guide to schedule broadcast television programs, allowing viewers to navigate, select, and discover content by time, title, channel, genre, etc, by use of their remote control. It also provides access to billing details, changing password and managing favorites.
• VOD (Video On Demand)
Video on Demand is a service that provides end users to interactively request and receive videos. VOD permits a customer to select a program from a catalogue using EPG (Electronic Program Guide). The play out of the selected movie starts nearly instantaneously on the customer's TV. A film that is chosen, for example, will be available for multiple viewing during 24 hours without any extra charge.
• NVOD (Near Video On Demand)
NVOD is another exciting feature working like a community TV Channel. A number of channels are allocated for NVOD. Popular or recently released movies and programs are played on NVOD channels and are available to all Smart TV viewers. Difference between VOD & NVOD is that VOD is a personalized service catering only to individual needs, on payment whereas NVOD is like community cinema available to all Smart TV customers at no extra cost. In case of NVOD channels, customer feedback plays a pivotal role in content selection.
