From the codec point of view the only difference between “IPTV” and “IP 
video”(OTT, OpenIPTV, etc.)  is managed or unmanaged network (i.e. error 
robustness). Correct?

Nope. In IPTV, the bandwidth is provisioned so you know your packets will not 
really face a loss or large delay unless something really bad happens. In IP 
video, there are no such guarantees, anything can happen to your packets. Thus, 
IP/OTT video uses mostly TCP (with HTTP). Such apps have entirely different set 
of goals to optimize (or trade off) compared to IPTV apps.

If so, we can consider these two applications as a single use-case with a 
requirement for error resilience if the network is unmanaged.

In my view, neither IPTV nor IP/OTT video should be error resilient. They 
should be error free, that is it. But to me, skype, conferencing, rtcweb must 
be error resilient, especially when running over non-QoS networks.

In this case, my main question is whether you mind to consider OTT video as a 
use case for NETVC codec or not?

As I said, it should not be the focus at the moment, later a different profile 
can be developed as needed.
