What is Hotel IPTV System and Why it is Important?

 

In the past, cable television was favored by some small hotels due to less guest demand, lower equipment costs, and free program sources. But in today's increasingly demanding stay experience requirements, just watching TV can no longer meet the entertainment needs of the vast majority of hotel guests.

 

Different from the cable TV system, the IPTV system has introduced a more advanced interactive system, which can meet the various needs of hotel guests during their stay through a variety of interactive functions, such as online meal ordering, video-on-demand, and even online check-out.

 

 

An IPTV system is actually an integrated content management system that can integrate all these entertainment functions, for example, being able to watch TV as well as big-name content platforms such as YouTube and Netflix, and of course, to order services online such as online meals and VOD!

How to Use a Professional Hotel IPTV System in Your Hotel?

 

So, how to properly operate this system? I mean, how to use this hotel IPTV system in your hotel for a higher turnover?

 

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Say Hi to Your Guests with Custom Content via the "Boot" Interface

 

Once your guest power on the IPTV system in the guest rooms, they will see a boot interface. Well, the boot interface allows you to customize welcome words, backgrounds, and scrolling subtitles. You can easily customize your guests' names and designate their names on the content management system of your hotel IPTV system. 

 

 

You can also customize any videos or images about your hotel in the background, and once the guests turn on the TV, the first view they will see besides the welcome words is your hotel's promotional video or image. Well, for me, I would suggest a video, because it is much more shocking than images!

 

Also, this hotel IPTV system allows scrolling subtitles to be displayed automatically in the "boot" interface

 

 

For example, if you would like to inform the guests that there is a SPA room or canteen open for the guests, you can use the scrolling subtitles like "SPA room on the 3rd floor is now open with buffet and beverage at 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.", or, you can also inform the guest that the swimming pool on the 8th floor will be open at 2 p.m.

 

The "Boot Interface" section helps gain the trust of your guests, and that's important to the popularity of your hotel.

  

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Connect Your Services with the Guests in the "Main Menu" Interface

 

After choosing the default language, another interface will be displayed as follows, we can see that this is the hotel logo, room number, background images, Wifi information, date information, and a menu bar below.

 

 

Well, they are all customizable, from the hotel logo, room number, Wifi account, date info, menu icon, and names to the background images, well, you can also upload a video instead.

 

And the menu bar is the most important part of this interface, it consists of 6 important sections that can help increase your hotel turnover.

Additionally, scrolling subtitles and forced-in streams are also supported. This means that you can advertise to your guests while they are using the IPTV system at a specific time.

 

Well, you may also In-stream your advertisement via forced-in stream videos, and show your customers that you have a canteen inside the hotel or a swimming pool on the 2nd floor.

 

Anyway, scrolling subtitles and the forced-in stream are vital to your hotel's marketing and you can earn more money through these two important functions of our hotel IPTV system.

 

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Bring Your Guests a Full Introduction to Your Hotel from Head to Toe in the "Hotel" Interface

 

The “Hotel” function allows you to advertise your hotel and let different guests know where they can take a rest in your hotel. 

 

 

You may ask your engineers to upload images and information in detail about each specific room or place for hotel publicity

 

For example, you can tell the VIP room guests that there are six rooms for the Parent-child area on the 2nd floor, what are the opening hours, what are the infrastructures inside, etc.

 

Or, you can tell all the business room guests via this section that the Rooftop Bar is now open, and if you would like for socializing, we have prepared food and drinks at 10 p.m.

 

Well, for an extrovert, that would be such great news! And it can also help you advertise your hotel and stimulate people to spend more money inside your hotel.

 

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Increasing Your Hotel Turnover by Online Food and Drinks Ordering In the "Food" Interface

 

The “Food” function allows the guests to order food and drinks online by using a TV remote. This section contains a few food classifications such as local food, barbecue, etc. You can customize them according to your hotel's food services. What is also customizable are the food images, prices, and order quantity. Well, a high-quality food image decides whether the guests order it or not. You can also lower the food price or set up a food combination of red wine and steak at 60USD to increase the turnover.

 

 

Between the classification, your customer can check what they have ordered now and what's been ordered a few hours ago in the "My order" and "History Order" parts. The guests will only need to press the "OK" button to select a specific quantity and submit the order. The order will then be sent to the IPTV management system which is monitored by the receptionists, after confirming the order, the food will be produced and delivered to the designated room. After the food or drink is sent, please always remember to press "finish" in the management system to complete the order.

 

The "Food" section is one of the best sections in our system that can directly help you earn more money. You will need to upload the food images, price and classifications so that your guests are able to order them.

  

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Offering Your Hotel Services Online and Respond in Real-time In the "Service" Interface 

 

The “Service” function allows you to customize hotel services for the guests.

 

 

It consists of the following services, which are: Housekeeper service, borrow service, taxi service, wake-up service, query service, and check-out service.

 

And here is how it works, once the guest order any services in this section, the orders will be notified in the management system to the receptionist, and you may react to the order right away. And it all happens in this section.

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Developing Hotel Traffic Potential by Cooperating with Businesses Around in the "Scenery" Interface

To tell you the truth, this may be another best opportunity to increase the turnover and the popularity of the hotel. You may cooperate with the businesses around your hotel, for example, carnivals, sports center, and scenic area. By uploading their information and earn for a consultant fee, and vice versa, the business may guide more guests to your hotel for accommodation after the guests have fun all day long.

Hotel IPTV System Functions: Increasing Hotel's Revenue By Video-on-Demand from Designated Guests in the "VOD" Interface

 

And the “VOD” function allows you to customize video-on-demand and its classifications. You can upload hotel promotional videos in the Vod section to manage the content of the hotel lobby screen. This helps enhance the guest's trust in your hotel. You can also upload any free or paid videos to the specific rooms at a specific time period.

 

 

For example, for VIP guests, I would suggest high-quality paid videos since they have a much more accommodation budget than the guests who ordered standard rooms, accordingly, for a standard room guest, I would suggest some classic movies that are charge-free.

 

Meanwhile, you can also set a few pieces of paid videos for testing, and see whether the standard room guest would pay for them.

 

VOD is also a unified way for more turnover potential.

 

As you can see, this is a powerful hotel IPTV system focusing on high user interaction, which allows you to advertise your hotel via multimedia, including videos, pictures, rolling captions, etc., this means that if you're running a hotel with our IPTV system, your guests can enjoy their best time at your hotel.

You can provide hotel residents with multi-channel high-definition IPTV, ordering services, and recommendations for eating, drinking, and entertainment nearby, which is conducive to improving your hotel's turnover.

How Does a Hotel IPTV System Work?

 

In the following content, you will learn how a hotel IPTV system works, including content sources, IPTV distribution, and relevant IPTV hardware. So basically, during the signals transmission of the IPTV system, there will be 3 main steps, which are content source inputting, content sources processing, and contents distribution. The transmission equipment varies due to different signals input.

 

Step #1: IPTV Content Sources Inputting

 

In the first stage, there will be 3 kinds of input signals transmitted to the hotel IPTV system, including satellite TV signals, homebrew program signals, and IP internet program signals.

 

• Satellite TV signals are usually transmitted by TV satellite and received by satellite dish.
• Homebrew program signals are usually processed into different output forms by the buyers themself, for example, MP3/SDI/HDMI, etc.
• IP internet program signals are usually from other IP addresses such as YouTube, so the content is neither made by the buyers nor from the TV satellite.

 

Step #2: IPTV Content Sources Processing

 

In the second step, three types of input signals will be processed by the hotel IPTV system according to their forms.

 

Satellite TV signals Processing

 

As for Satellite TV signals, since it is in RF form, we need an IP form instead, so we will need an IRD.

 

IRD is abbreviated for Integrated Receiver/Decoders in the IPTV area. It is used to transform the input RF signals into output IP signals to the ITPV server.

 

According to Wikipedia, an IRD is an electronic device used to pick up a radio-frequency signal and convert digital information transmitted in it.

 

An IRD usually has a card slot for paid Satellite TV signals card insertion, you'll have to order program-authorized cards from satellite TV program suppliers, and one box usually stands for multiple channels.

 

However, IRD is actually for professional hotel IPTV systems, if you're looking for a cheaper solution, well, a set-top box satellite receiver will be the best IRD alternative. 

 

A set-top box satellite receiver is used to transfer input RF signals from the Satellite TV into output HDMI signals and then processed into IP signals by HDMI hardware encoder. 

 

The set-top box satellite receiver is totally license-free, no authorized card is needed, and usually, one box stands for 1 channel.

 

By using a set-top box satellite receiver, you don't need to pay for TV program authorization anymore, all you need to pay is the device buying costs and yearly or monthly program renting fee.

 

Homebrew Program Signals Processing

 

As for Homebrew program signals, since the signals are in many different forms, you'll then need a hardware encoder. For example, if it was HDMI signals output, then an HDMI hardware encoder is needed to transform the HDMI input into IP output to the IPTV server.

 

IP Signals Processing

 

As for IP internet program signals, since the signals are in form of IP, so you don't need an IRD, STB, or encoder in normal cases, the IP output signals will be transferred directly into the IPTV server.

 

However, this solution is limited to the case where the streaming address of the program source does not change at all, otherwise, the server cannot obtain the program source after the program source is changed. 

 

And the alternative solution is to add up an IP internet set-top box for IP to HDMI transformation and an HDMI encoder for HDMI to IP transformation. The IP signals will then be transferred to the IPTV server.

 

Stability will be very good due to the use of STB with an authorized Internet program set-top box

 

Step #3: IPTV Distribution

 

In the last stage, IP signals processed by the IPTV server will be transferred into the IP network converter and finally runs into the set-top box and television in your guest's room, this process works the same for all solutions mentioned above.

 

To draw a conclusion, here is how FMUSER IPTV systems work:

 

For Satellite TV Content Sources

 

1. Pro solution with IRD: Satellite TV signals (RF) >> Network dish (RF) >> Professional Satellite Receiver IRD (RF to IP) >> IPTV Server >> Network Switch >> Set-Top Box >> TV
2. Cheaper solution with STB: Satellite TV signals (RF) >> Satellite Antenna (RF) >> STB Satellite Receiver (RF to HDMI) >> HDMI Encoder (HDMI to IP) >> IPTV Server >> Network Switch >> STB >> TV
3. For Homebrew program signals: Homemade program signals (e.g. HDMI output) >> HDMI encoder(HDMI to IP) >> IPTV server >> network switch >> STB >> TV

 

For Homebrew Content Sources

 

1. Cheaper but unsteady solution: Internet program (IP) >> IPTV server (regular processing of IP signals) >> network switch >> set-top box >> TV
2. Pro solution with authorized program signals: IP program signals >> IP set-top box STB (IP to HDMI) >> HDMI encoder (HDMI to IP) >> IPTV server >> Network Switch >> STB >> TV

Q5: How can I advertise via your IPTV system to my hotel guests?

 

Well, you may ask your engineers to put different advertisements for designated guests who ordered a VIP room or a standard room. For example, you can upload the advertisement text and display them in a loop to the guests while they are watching TV programs. For the VIP guests, the advertisement may be like "Spa service and golf are now opened for VIP guests on the 3rd floor, please order a ticket ahead". For the standard rooms, the advertisement may be like "Buffet dinner and beer are opened on the 2nd floor before 9 P.M., please order a ticket ahead".

To start with, for your proper on-site wiring, all the hotel IPTV system equipment will be tested and affixed with the relevant labels (1 on 1) before delivery.

 

During on-site wiring, please make sure each input port of the system equipment is matched with the designated input Ethernet cables

 

What's more, always double-check the connection between the Ethernet cable and the input ports, and make sure they are stable enough and not loose because the equipment on-working light will flash still even with a loose Ethernet cable connection.

 

Finally, please make sure you choose a good quality Cat6 Ethernet patch cable at a high transmission speed of up to 1000 Mbps.

 

Q5: Any suggestions for the IPTV system transmission room maintenance?

 

Sure we have. Except for the basic maintenance that every hotel engineer should follow, such as correct wiring and keeping the room dust-free and clean, our IPTV system engineer also recommended that the working temperature should be less than 40 Celsius while the humidity should be less than 90% relative humidity (non-condensing), and the power supply should remain stable between 110V-220V. And most importantly, make sure the room is engineer-only, and avoid the animals such as mice, snakes, and cockroaches from entering the room

 

Q6: How does your IPTV system work?

 

Well, it depends on how you input the signals. 

 

For example, if the input signals are from the TV satellite, they will be transformed from RF into IP signals, and finally gets into the set-top boxes in the guests' rooms. 

 

If you're interested in this topic, welcome to pay a visit to our video demo on what is a hotel IPTV system and how it works. 

 

Q7: What do I need to prepare before placing an order for your hotel IPTV system?

 

Well, before you reach out to our engineers via the links and phone number in the video description, you may need to figure out what you need exactly, for example:

 

1. How do you receive the signals? Is it a TV satellite program or a homebrew program? How many channels of signal inputs are there?
2. What is the name and location of your hotel? How many rooms do you need to cover for IPTV services?
3. What devices do you currently have and what problems do you hope to solve?

 

Although our engineers will discuss these topics with you in WhatsApp or by phone, however, it would save time for both of us if you figure out the questions listed before reaching out to us.
