HBBTV System
HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV) is a new
industry standard that seamlessly combines TV
services delivered via broadcast with services delivered
via broadband and also enables access to Internet only
services for consumers using connected TVs and set-
top boxes. Services delivered through HbbTV include
traditional broadcast TV channels, catch-up services,
video-on-demand, electronic programme guide,
interactive advertising, personalisation, voting, games,
social networking and other multimedia applications.
HbbTV applications are available on channels where
they are signalled by the broadcaster. The broadcaster
marks one application as "autostart" and this one is
started by the platform automatically. The autostart
applications are generally launched with a small red
button icon to notify the user that there is an HbbTV
application on that channel. Press the red button to
open the application page. After the page is displayed
you can go back to the initial red button icon state
by pressing the red button again. You can toggle
between the red button icon mode and full UI mode
of the application via pressing red button. It should
be noted that the red button switching capability is
provided by the application and some
may behave differently (other colour buttons such as
green, yellow, blue, may be defined for some other
functions, e.g. shortcuts).
If you switch to another channel while an HbbTV
application is active (either in red button icon mode
or full UI mode), the following scenarios can occur.
• The application can continue running.
• The application can be terminated.
• The application can be terminated and another
autostart red button application can be launched.
HbbTV allows the applications to be retrieved both from
broadband or broadcast. The broadcaster may enable
both ways or one of them. If the platform does not have
an operational broadband connection, the platform
can still launch applications transmitted on broadcast.
The autostart red button applications generally provide
links to other applications. The user then can switch
to other applications by using the links provided.
The applications should provide a way to terminate
themselves, usually Exit button is used for this.
HbbTV applications use keys on the remote control to
interact with the user. When an HbbTV application is
launched, the control of some keys are owned by the
application. For example, numeric channel selection
may not work on a teletext application where the
numbers indicate teletext pages.
HbbTV requires AV streaming capability for the
platform. There are numerous applications providing
VOD (video on demand) and catch-up TV services.
The user can use play, pause, stop, forward, and
rewind keys on the remote control to interact with the
AV content.
If you need to change the audio description settings
of your TV you should do it before a HbbTV playback
starts. You will not be able to access related settings
during a playback. Go to the Settings>System>Ac-
cessibility>Audio Description menu and adjust
according to your need.
Note: You can enable or disable this feature from the
More menu in Settings>System menu. Depending on the
model of your TV and the selected country option in the
First Time Installation this feature might be available in the
Settings>System>Privacy>Privacy Settings menu instead
of the Settings>System>More menu.
