Exset Launches DMS 2.0 Ahead Of CommunicAsia

Exset, supplier of pay-TV ecosystems for emerging markets, has announced it will fully launch its DMS 2.0 technology ahead of this month’s CommunicAsia conference and exhibition in Singapore.

DMS 2.0 is the second iteration of Exset’s ecosystem "to help monetise digital broadcast platforms and digital switchover in emerging markets."
DMS creates digital television platforms that provide additional services – text-based information like sports, weather and financial news through government information services to video ad insertion and NVoD – allowing digital network monetisation.
New DMS 2.0 onscreen capabilities include range of on-demand services as well as video and static advertising opportunities.

• Video ad insertion on the home page
• Ad insertion on the EPG
• Push VoD – operators can pre-load their most popular content to the viewer’s set-top box
• USB-based PVR capabilities – allow viewers to record content on a USB stick connected to the set-top
• 'Red Button' interactive services – provide additional magazine services (weather, news or sports, for example)
• Interactive advertising ('Blue Button') service – press the blue button when instructed on a banner ad and detail will be revealed

Users can access the database from anywhere and with the right levels of access in place, can update TV content instantly using the template design.
Images may be restricted to small file sizes to ensure a perfect service for viewers, while providing a useable management system for operators and advertisers.
Andrew Pons, Global Director of Sales and Marketing, says: "DMS 2.0 brings together a whole range of possibilities for broadcast network operators, allowing them to generate revenues from services over and above television. The whole ecosystem allows the modular deployment of services on extremely low cost set-top boxes."
