The Osmosys GEM (Globally Executable MHP) IPTV Middleware provides a fully standardised interactive layer that can be made to work with any existing IPTV system. This means if you have “hit the wall” with your current solution, need more features to remain competitive or want to reduce your operating costs, we can help.
The Osmosys GEM IPTV Middleware is a sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, flexible solution for IPTV based on DVB standards. With five years of market exposure, and proven scalability into the millions, the Osmosys GEM-IPTV middleware provides a host of features to provide the best user experience possible.
The Osmosys Opencable Platform (OCAP/tru2way) 1.0 Middleware is derived from the award-winning Osmosys GEM-based MHP middleware that is deployed in more than four million set top boxes in over fifteen countries.
The years of market experience with MHP have helped to make the Osmosys OCAP middleware the most robust, stable option available. The large amount of common code with MHP means Osmosys spends it’s time focussed on delivering performance and stability enhancements, rather than implementing the basics.
The Osmosys MHP 1.2 middleware, available now and ready to be deployed, takes Osmosys’ award-winning MHP middleware to the next level to provide a complete, advanced broadband and broadcast software solution for digital receivers.

The Osmosys MHP 1.1 Middleware provides a host of new features to benefit network operators. For example: in the case where a broadband connection is available, broadcast bandwidth can be saved by offloading applications onto web servers and accessing them via TCP/IP. If broadband is not available or cannot be guaranteed, stored applications and enhanced caching capabilities allow operators to reduce the bandwidth used, while improving start-up times for consumers - the #1 complaint from Broadcasters & Operators in all forms of interactive TV.

MHP was specifically designed to work in a variety of networks and guarantee that using MHP means you are never stuck with only one supplier. At the same time MHP was designed to work with standard internet protocols. Most 1st genera tion interactive TV middleware wasn’t designed to use TCP/IP.
