Abstract
With the advent of OTT, the new concept of content delivery service is growing interest in the market, the development of appropriate equipment and application program is needed. In order to provide OTT service, a system to receive UHD broadcast to collect free content is needed. In this study, we designed an OTT service providing system that operates on 4K UHD video adapter hardware capable of IPTV service. First, we analyzed the situation to provide video free contents service and implemented a system to collect free contents. To validate the research and to make practical use of it, we have developed a mobile program for free content service and distributed it through the Google App Store. It is also installed in an OTT box with the ability to provide free content on the open market and is in service in several countries including Brazil.
