theasus Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Is there any standarts or something for OTT broadcasters? Does OTT Tv need a license? I know there are some standarts for IPTV but I couldn't find any standarts which determine rules of OTT TV. Do you have any idea about this?

saint Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 That would depend on what country you reside in. Usually anything streamed via the Internet does not require a technical license - as per say. The biggest "license" issue would be the transmission of copyrighted material.

theasus Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 I searched Germany and England. But I couldn't find any rules for OTT in these country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Contact the governmental agency or organization that is responsible for the Internet in your particular country. They will be able to provide the specific and detailed information you require.

andhow Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 OTT Broadcasters like NowTV, Netflix, WhereverTV, Hulu, & myTV apparently have done deals directly with the owners of the licensed content. I do not think that there is an "OTT Licensing" organisation, so to speak. There is more here - http://broadcastengineering.com/ott/major-players-set-enter-internet-tv-business-reshaping-content-delivery Here - http://www.broadcast-asia.com/index.php/conference/speakers-insight/what-will-the-future-of-tv-look-like-and-why-is-ott-a-game-changer/ & here - http://www.venturedata.org/?i458033_Internet-TV-license-side-the-power-behind-the-embarrassing (*NOTE* - I got all of this information from Google in about 5 minutes of research.) I[url=http://www.venturedata.org/?i458033_Internet-TV-license-side-the-power-behind-the-embarrassing][/url] don't think that there is an easy answer and most of the members of the Broadcasting World Forums are radio broadcasters (FM & Internet). This is forum. And people ask about something to help each other. If you don't want ot help, don't write anything. I think that Saint was being quite helpful in pointing you in the right direction with the limited knowledge that he and most others have of about OTT Licensing. His being an internet broadcasting consultant I think qualifies him to giving sound advice about this subject. He had offered you an answer to your question and I would probably offer you the same advice. I think that we have been helpful and wish you the best of luck with your endeavors.
