DECEMBER 2, 2022 11.47 EUROPE/LONDON BY JULIAN CLOVER

Mediaset has confirmed it will test the new DVB-I standard in a trial starting next April.

The Italian commercial broadcaster demonstrated its DVB-I implementation during the annual Ultra HD Forum conference in Rome.

DVB-I mixes online and broadcast channels in a fashion so seamless that the viewer is in theory unable to distiquish the source.

Mediasat networks Canale 5, Italia 1, Rete 4 and 20 will participate in the trial. The channels will be broadcast over IP using the Multicast system.
