The arrival of non-linear television via catch-up, VOD and DTO services means that broadcasters are suddenly required to distribute programme information that’s no longer tied to the date-and time of broadcast. New players in the non-linear space also require different data formats, adding to the existing headache broadcasters suffer in the multiplatform world. For channels and platforms to maximise EPG data for additional services like VOD and DTO, they need to adopt a clear, defined workflow. All the best,
