When adding services to a lineup

This is a services filtering capability when adding services to a lineup depending on the bouquets selected, to determine which services are offered to be added to the new lineup.

  • Scripted Service: Contains a script to access special services such as menu navigation, VOD asset acquisition or STB diagnostics and (may) dial digits to access channels

    • Scripted (not linear) services are listed (for selection) without filtering (e.g. dialing numbers directly from within the script….)

Example: In figure “Lineup Service List” section above, only services in common to “Ccast Bouquet” and “Vizon Bouquet” are listed for selection to ensure that translated dial number will work correctly at the corresponding STBs/geographic location.
