The Service List Registry (SLR) provides an online directory of audiovisual services, based on open standards for Digital Video Broadcasting.[1] The Service List Registry enables any compatible client device or application to query a distributed online database to retrieve lists of relevant media services and obtain technical details of how to access them over various delivery networks.
The federated online directory is based on the open DVB-I standard for Service Discovery and Programme Metadata,[2] developed by the European Broadcasting Union and the DVB Project based in Geneva. It is part of a suite of standards used to deliver digital radio and television services in Europe and many other countries around the world.
Purpose
The purpose of the Service List Registry is to enable "Simple Service Selection on any screen".[3] It provides a means for internet-connected devices and displays to offer access to audiovisual services that may be delivered over various transmission networks.[4]
The SLR platform allows registered regulators, producers, distributors and service providers to administer lists of audio and video services available online and through traditional broadcast networks.[5]
Compatible devices and applications can use the Service List Registry to discover and access audio and video services from various sources, including fixed and wireless internet connections and traditional cable, satellite and terrestrial transmissions.[6]
History
The Service List Registry platform was developed to support DVB-I, a Digital Video specification first published by the DVB Project as a DVB BlueBook specification in June 2020 and as an ETSI standard in November 2020.[7] The DVB-I standard defines the technical function of a Service List Registry or SLR and service list providers but does not specify how the SLR collects and stores such information.[8]
In June 2021, the DVB Project commissioned a reference implementation of a skeleton DVB-I Central Service List Registry as a proof of concept for verification and validation of the specification.[9] This was developed by Sofia Digital in Tampere, Finland and released as open source software in December 2021.[10] A federated system that allows a level of national control of regulated lists of appropriately authorized services was proposed in March 2022.[11]
Service List Registry Limited was incorporated as a separate entity in April 2022 to provide the service discovery platform.[12] The Service List Registry launched at DVB World in Brussels on 18 May 2022.[13][14] Three months after launch, a pilot programme was announced for participants to join the Service List Registry.[15]
