EBIF User Agent
The EBIF User Agent is set-top-box software that is fully compliant with the most current CableLabs and OpenCable ETV standards.
The EBIF User Agent is a virtual-machine-based application execution environment. The advantage of this model is that it prevents any application failure or crash from causing set-top boxes to reboot. This is a huge factor in success for nationally distributed interactivity.
While the EBIF User Agent has been in market since July 2008, its key components have been deployed to millions of customers since 2003. It’s been tested with ETV applications in millions of homes. FourthWall’s EBIF User Agent is available for Cisco/SA, Motorola, and Tru2Way set-top boxes.
The EBIF User Agent:
- Is fully compliant with the most current CableLabs and OpenCable ETV standards
- Offers high performance with true animations and a compact footprint that requires less than 250KB of memory
- Is integration ready, with no middleware necessary
