The LodgeNet IPTV solution provides the option of including an interactive program guide that displays scheduling for up to 6 hours of programming. The new LodgeNet IP solution has a similar look and feel to its industry-leading SIGNETURE HDTVSM platform to support a consistent guest experience for brands across hotels with different platforms.
