Theoretically, with the help of such systems, it is even possible to turn off the receiving equipment, claims one of the experts in the field of pay TV. In his opinion, foreign encodings are a Trojan horse.
— We welcome the work of the south korea cell phone number list State Enterprise KS on the creation of a domestic conditional access system for TV. We are ready to consider the use of a domestic solution provided that it is integrated with existing subscriber devices and is competitive in price with existing conditional access systems, — Rostelecom said about the project.
In such a sensitive area as TV, domestic solutions should be used - GS Labs welcomes the development of Russian products of international level, as this creates new jobs in the Russian Federation, and investments in the project remain here, noted Alexey Goylo. But it may take more than one year to create a system from scratch, he believes.
“It will take the same amount of time to gain global recognition and pass the appropriate audit, if, of course, we are talking about creating a new development, and not about repackaging an existing third-party one,” the expert reasons.
According to him, GS Labs is ready to participate in the project if invited.
The emergence of an independent coding system on the market is relevant for operators, says Konstantin Ankilov, CEO of TMT Consulting. This could reduce risks for Russian participants in the pay TV market, he believes.
The use of foreign coding systems is fraught with the fact that its developer or third parties can completely block the reception of paid TV for viewers of one or another operator, noted TelecomDaily CEO Denis Kuskov. Or open the reception of paid TV channels, which will make the operator's business meaningless, he reasons.
— The creation of a Russian encoding system meets the interests of TV viewers. The operator simply cannot broadcast premium channels for free, in the production and purchase of which a lot of money is invested. Due to piracy, they can simply disappear from the providers' packages, — the expert believes.
Obviously, it makes sense to pay operators several hundred rubles a month in order to continue watching interesting films and football, he is sure.
