Amino and STMicroelectronics to offer IPTV Solution

5th January 2006-Amino has announced that its advanced software stack for IPTV set-top boxes is to be combined with STMicroelectronics's ST7100 family of semiconductors.

Amino's IntActTM software facilitates the construction of a comprehensive and highly flexible IP set-top box platform, able to support a wide range of IPTV middleware and conditional access solutions. This means that set-top box manufacturers can concentrate on product design and value engineering, to address the widest array of market requirements instead of spending time developing and testing the designs. Third-party application software can also be ported to add new features for IPTV service providers, thanks to the open software platform architecture.

"We strongly believe that the combined efforts of leading IPTV set-top box and silicon vendors will allow operators to shorten time to market, and provide them with the flexibility to manage IPTV solutions within a multi-vendor set-top box environment, which is an exciting prospect", Stefano Groppetti, Cable & IP Business Director of STMicroelectronics commented.
