Abstract

According to one implementation, a multi-protocol message distribution system includes a computing platform having a hardware processor and a system memory storing a multi-protocol messaging software code. The hardware processor is configured to execute the multi-protocol messaging software code to receive a first video stream including programming content and at least one command message for distribution to multiple destination devices. The first video stream further includes multiple command message protocols for enabling execution of the command message. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the multi-protocol messaging software code to identify a command message protocol requirement of each of the destination devices, and to selectively address a second video stream including the programming content, the command message, and at least one of the command message protocols for enabling execution of the command message to each of the destination devices based on its respective command message protocol requirement.
