tru2way is a next generation standard for set top box applications. A java-based middleware, it’s designed to level the playing field and make it easier for developers to create products that can work on many systems.

Although tru2way is a standard, not all tru2way stacks are completely equivalent. Many providers have created different implementations that have their own flavor.

tru2way is a solid step forward, and a standard that’s seen numerous Zodiac applications that run on most tru2way stacks. However, since not all stacks are created equal, Zodiac has created the PowerUp Framework to abstract away from the developer and the operator, the idiosyncrasies of each individual stack.
