An IPTV server, or Internet Protocol Television server, is a system that delivers television content over an Internet (IP) network. This server is responsible for receiving live TV signals, processing them and distributing them to receiver devices for broadcast. The IPTV server is equipped with various features and capabilities to support the delivery of TV channels, video on demand (VOD) content and interactive services. The server receives TV signals from various sources such as satellite or cable network providers, terrestrial or Internet broadcasting stations. It then encodes and compresses the content into a suitable format for transmission over the IP network. The server organizes channel list management, Electronic Program Guide (EPG) and user subscriptions, allowing viewers to access the channels and content they want. IPTV servers use different protocols for streaming, such as Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP), Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to transmit TV content to users’ receiving devices. Receiver devices can include smart TVs, set-top boxes, computers, smartphones, and tablets. The server sends TV channels or content on demand (VOD) to users’ receiving devices, and the devices decode and display the content on their screens. In general, an IPTV server serves as the core infrastructure for providing television services over IP networks, providing users with a flexible and interactive television broadcast experience.
