STB|e - OpenTV set-top box emulator

STB|e enables all OpenTV services to be run on a Windows PC and other platforms. Our STB|e product suite is used daily by our clients from development to marketing.

STB|e Marketer converts any OpenTV application including audio and video, into a demo file which can be run on any PC using our free demo viewer STB|e Viewer. The iTV content itself is encrypted to protect your data.

STB|e Developer is an indispensable tool for any OpenTV developer. It provides all the features a developer needs to debug, profile, analyze memory and test new iTV content. iTV content created using the STB|e Developer will be more robust and reliable across many different set-top box models.


Run iTV content on your Windows PC.

STB|e Developer dramatically increases the productivity of the individual developer. Not only does it cut down on the time waiting for applications to load on a set-top box. STB|e Developer also analyzes the application and warns the developer of current and potential problem to reduce the risk of bugs and the time needed for bug-fixing and corrections. Key benefits:

  • Warns on illegal or potentially dangerous API usage.
  • Validates all memory usage and detects memory leaks.
  • Automatically profiles applications to increase application performance.
  • Provides source code callstack to pinpoint problem areas (needs ODB file).
  • Start your application in seconds, much faster than on a set-top box.
  • Eliminate the need for expensive set-top boxes for each PC.
  • Runs OpenTV 1.2, EN1, EN2 applications in PAL or NTSC.
  • Return channel fully supported.

In short your company will produce more applications with fewer bugs faster.
