Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) are planning to showcase their Multi-Home Platform (MHP) specification during this year's NAB at booth L22506.
The consortium will show off how the product significantly advances full interactive/enhanced television and Internet services to consumers. Also featured will be demonstrations from Canal+ Technologies, Sofia Digital, Sony, Strategy & Technology and Tao Group.
The demonstrations will include MHP applications highlighting various information and entertainment services. Visitors will also get to see an MHP integrated digital television and other technology emphasising the power of MHP.
Also featured will be a HiTop DTV portable receiver as well as the new low-cost Pace Digital Terrestrial Adapter that converts the ordinary analogue television into a DTV receiver.
DVB specifications and other documentation will be available and DVB experts will be on-hand to answer questions concerning MHP and other DVB specifications.
DVB are an industry-led consortium of over 300 broadcasters, manufacturers, network operators, software developers, regulatory bodies and others in over 35 countries committed to designing global standards for the delivery of digital television and data services.
The DVB standards cover all aspects of digital television from transmission through interfacing, conditional access and interactivity for digital video, audio and data.
The consortium came together in 1993 to create unity in the march towards global standardisation, interoperability and future proofing.
