“…As an intermediate step between legacy video experience (with flat or 3D images, small definition or 4K) and VR, we can mention so-called interactive broadcast experience, which provides the user with the possibility to decide from which camera he wants to view the show/event. Recently, Free-Viewpoint Television (FTV) (Chen et al, 2016) has been proposed as an even more immersive experience where the user can decide an arbitrary viewpoint by having different camera streams combined at the player. In particular, the network challenges of doing so for live delivery and sizable audience are investigated in (Chen et al, 2016).…”

This chapter introduces the current trends of evolution of IPTV from several perspectives. First, we review the transformation of the users' expectations and the consequent changes brought to the business opportunities for the different stakeholders willing to benefit from the Internet video usage. The second section of this chapter presents the main architectural overhauls of IPTV led by the converged usage of different video modalities. In particular, we discuss how IPTV and Over-The-Top (OTT) video distribution mutually feed each other to draw the future of IPTV systems, and insist on the current and foreseen collaboration between the stakeholders. The third section focuses on three main technical points in video distribution through the Internet, namely (i) the caching strategies which allow the telecommunication operators (telcos) to scale up their Internet video distribution, (ii) the envisioned solutions to steady and integrate the wireless last-hop into the whole delivery system, and (iii) we open up on the daunting technological challenges arising with Virtual Reality (VR), if VR shall be the upcoming revolution of user experience and ultimate evolution of TV.
