This allows operators to provide a wide range of value-add services over and above television channels to enhance overall service propositions and generate additional revenue.

DMS 2.0 is the second iteration of Exsets powerful ecosystem to help monetise digital broadcast platforms and digital switchover in emerging markets. DMS bridges the gap between technology and value-added services, creating digital television platforms that provide additional services text-based information like sports, weather and financial news through government information services to video ad insertion and NVoD allowing digital network monetisation where previously impossible. DMS 2.0 boasts a host of backend and onscreen advances to make it easier to use for operators, while providing more powerful and modular value-add opportunities. All this and its purpose-designed to run on very low-cost set-top boxes with integrated middleware.

DMS 2.0 Publisher, the backend technology that allows both network operators and third-parties to upload and edit content, benefits from a what-you-see-is-what-you-get GUI and tight workflow management for its users. Users can access the database from anywhere and with the right levels of access in place, can update TV content instantly using the template design that automatically constrains data uploading. For example, images may be restricted to small file sizes to ensure a perfect service for viewers while providing an easy management system for operators and advertisers.
