An IPTV application system and a method and system for playing near video on demand (NVoD) programs. The system for playing NVoD programs includes: an IPTV application system, adapted to create NVoD channels and generate an NVoD channel table that contains attribute information indicating whether NVoD channels support time-shifting operations; an NVoD server that intercommunicates with the IPTV application system, adapted to play a program specified by an operator in a multicast and/or unicast mode following a scheduled timetable according to control of the IPTV application system. The present invention implements time-shifting under the NVoD state and adds to user experience under the NVoD state, and in addition, provides a new channel for operators to sell on-demand programs. |
