BT TV bosses considering cloud-powered PVRs

BTTV_OnDemandLibrary_900BT bosses are looking at ways cloud-based services could replace common PVR functions on set top boxes.

The ISP’s TV service uses YouView set top boxes which combined broadcast digital terrestrial TV (DTT) channels with catch-up and on-demand content.

BT subscribers can also subscribe to a range of pay-TV channels including SyFy and Fox.

According to Greg McCall, Chief Operating Officer, TV and Content, BT Sport, the firm is looking at how the cloud can boost the firm’s ability to deliver “innovative, real-time content.”
