First Open IPTV Forum Interoperability Event 2009 16th-20th November 2009, Berlin, Germany

The first ever Open IPTV Forum Interoperability Event (OIPF InteroP TV #1) has been facilitated by Fraunhofer FOKUS in Berlin, Germany. From Nov 16th to 20th core members of the OIPF Forum, including Ericsson, Fraunhofer FOKUS, Motorola, and Sharp, experimented and tested recent developments based on OIPF IPTV specifications. “We wanted to bring OIPF members and supporters one step closer to providing implementations of the OIPF specifications”, says Mr. Oliver Friedrich, Fraunhofer FOKUS. As an independent research institute, Fraunhofer FOKUS supports this process by offering prototypes and reference implementations.
