Channel Master, a manufacturer of broadcast reception products since 1949, launched Channel Master TV, an online video platform intended to deliver live Internet streams directly into the program guide of the company's DVR+, a fee-free DVR that records over-the-air broadcast content and provides access to video and music streaming services.
A software update will roll out to DVR+ customers to allow them to sign up for the free Channel Master TV platform and add live Internet channels to their program guide. The platform brings web video to the TV screen in a traditional TV viewing experience. Customers can select and change streams instantly, without the need to launch a separate application.
Channel Master will continually add Internet Channels to the Channel Master TV platform, without the need for a software update. Customers will receive an email notification when a new channel is added, and also see the new channels in their program guide. The customer can configure the DVR+ to hide and un-hide channels for a personalized experience.
