We designed and implemented streaming server based on MEPG DASH, which is able to provide high quality video with low-latency live streaming service like 360 VR video on the existing cable network via low-spec media service devices such as IPTV and OTT(Over the Top) SettopBox. We also designed and applied management process which is cable of supporting services by cashing streaming video file(MPD, Segment Files) to reduce the server response delay time. Further more, we confimred that it is also able to provide high quality of tiled video streaming with over 50,000kbps bitrate and 8K@60P through the experiment.

Watching movies is common on a big screen like a theater or on a big-screen TV. nowadays, small platform such as mobile devices is increasing rapidly for watch a movie. These changes are deeply related to the advent of Internet-based video streaming services such as OTT. OTT's development has provided in free video viewing system without using the set-top box is free from the limitations of time and space. Leading the market is Netflix[1], which started its business with Internet-based DVD rental service. Netflix, which is growing in tandem with the mobile market, had 193.26[2] million members as of the end of 2018. Other OTT participating companies include content-based Pooq, TVing, platform-based Olleh TV Mobile, Oksusu and LTE video portal. The size of such new growth projects has grown gradually, with 25.4 percent of all smartphone users currently watching video content with small mobile devices. Therefore, de-largeization, it is thought that visual language is needed for viewing small mobile devices that are capable of OTT services. To this end, this paper will identify the problem in viewing popular video content with small mobile devices and Survey and study its impact on viewers using the questionnaire.

Live streaming is a method to provide media service by sending recoded media to a user's video player. In order to provide video and audio contents in real-time for a large number of users simultaneously, live streaming compatible protocols such as RTMP (Real Time Messaging Protocol), HLS (Http Live Streaming), are required. In this paper, we analyzed vulnerability of paid live streaming services with the captured packets from the applications used by six major OTT (over-the-top) companies in Korea supporting live streaming services. We found that streaming channels were not encrypted and access control mechanisms were not properly used. Thus, guest users can freely use paid live streaming services.

The purpose of this paper is to provide an answer for the following question: What are the major shifts and implications of the unprecedently competitive and rapidly changing media ecosystem in the era of N-screen and OTT services? I've attempted to understand the complex and competitive nexus among media from an historical context by focusing on the displacement vs. complement thesis. The TPC model by Han has been employed for the analysis of the current dynamics of US media industries by triangulating three areas: Technology/industry, public policy and consumer/culture. More specifically, the US media landscape is initially divided into two competitive turfs - the competitors equipped with OTT services and the legacy media industry, and then the traditional media industry was grouped again into PayTV group(telecom service providers with IPTV and mobile TV, cable/Satellite TV networks) and Free (over-the-air) TV networks. Six major shifts were identified by the analysis: power shift in telecom carriers, power shifts in TV industry, Telecom/OTT partnership, time shifts, place shifts, and finally business model shifts.

본고에서는 스마트 TV의 대표적인 서비스인 OTT(Over-The-Top)서비스의 전송 방법 중 최근에 가장 주목을 받고 있는 HTTP에 기초한 적응적 스트리밍 기술을 알아본다. 먼저, 최근 MPEG등 각 표준단체에서 진행되고 있는 HTTP 스트리밍 기술의 표준화 범위 및 진행 상황에 대해서 살펴보고, 표준화 범위 중 핵심이 되는 메타데이타 파일 구조 및 청크 단위의 전송 포맷 및 기존 시스템 포맷의 확장 사항 등에 대해서 설명한다. 마지막으로 MPEG DASH(Dynamic adaptive streaming over HTTP)의 basic on-demand profile에 기초한 구현 내용 및 결과를 소개한다.

고해상도 영상 서비스 증가와 Youtube, Netflix와 같은 OTT 중심의 동영상 시청 환경 변화에 따라, 기존 대비 높은 압축률을 목표로 하는 새로운 비디오 코덱 표준들이 활발히 개발되고 있다. 그 중 가장 대표적인 것은 MPEG에서 개발 중인 VVC(Versatile Video Coding)로 기존 HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding) 대비 2배의 압축률 달성을 목표로 하고 있다. 하지만 압축률 향상을 위한 새로운 부호화 도구들의 복잡도가 점점 증가함에 따라, 하드웨어 복호화기 구현시 많은 어려움이 있을 것으로 예상된다. VVC 표준화에서는 이런 어려움을 극복하기 위하여, 하드웨어 구현 관점에서 부호화 도구들을 최적화하고 이를 사용함에 있어 몇가지 제약들을 정의하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 VVCCD 및 VTM 6.0 소프트웨어 기준으로 하드웨어 복호화기 구현을 고려하여 채택된 부호화 도구 및 제약에 대하여 분석한다.

Smart TV is rapidly growing with the provision of OTT services, and has become an alternative to pay-TV services. Yet smart TV in Korea has been diffused slowly, and thus few research has paid attention to smart TV. With the global growth trend of smart TV, research on smartTV, focusing on users' characteristic and their behaviors, is critical to explain smart TV's usage. To employ the Mediapanel dataset, this study explores the impact of smart TV users' demographic factors and their pay-tv usage on smart TV usage. The results suggested that age, the type of household, household income, and market size are associated with smart TV usage. Pay-TV usage, specifically IPTV subscription and VOD expenses, have impacts on smart TV usage. Lastly the interaction effect between IPTV subscription and movie VOD expenses, has negatively associated with smart TV usage. This study may bring to re-attention to smart TV and to give insights into the industry field.
