Bonjour,
Depuis quelques jours, nous recevons sur le réseau de Paris (mux 123.125 mhz), 7 nouveaux canaux "Barker". La définition anglaise de barker voulant dire qu'il s'agit de canaux dédiés à la promotion, notamment d'un prochain service de VOD par exemple.
Il y a actuellement des mires avec barres verticales colorées.
Est-ce que quelqu'un peut nous dire à quoi vont servir ces 7 canaux ?
Est-ce la prochaine venue de Kiosque ?
A+

Web-based "Barker" Channel
The service would entail a control system for "barker" channels on Cable TV (CATV) systems. A "barker" channel is a channel akin to a CATV information channel that provides news, events, weather reports, and etc. such as TCI's channel 4 on the State College, PA system. The "barker" channel is a channel dedicated to broadcasting textual and graphical information on a repetitive basis. The system under investigation uses the Integrated Backbone to centrally control remote "barker servers" that connect locally to the CATV system. Besides giving considerably more flexibility than existing systems it offers a wider variety of information presentation.

A mon avis il s'agit du catalogue de VODA barker channel is a TV channel that is used almost entirely for promotion and advertising, usually marketing various features of the service carrying the channel.
There are several of these channels on digital cable systems and especially on direct broadcast satellite systems like DirecTV. On interactive TV systems, these also allow for ordering of pay-per-view TV programs or other pay TV services. The TV Guide Channel can also be considered somewhat of a barker channel, though it now carries a lot of full-length programming.
Barker channels are normally free-to-view or occasionally free-to-air, even without a subscription. This also indicates success in installation of satellite systems, and particularly in aiming small satellite dishes.
