HbbTV

Learn More about HbbTV
HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV) is a new broadcasting standard that enables super-Teletext type services, delivered by a broadcast TV program, to be integrated or linked to online services delivered over broadband to a connected Smart TV. Consumers are therefore able to access various online services such as catch-up TV, Video on Demand (VOD), program-related applications, and other rich information services in addition to traditional digital Teletext services, all directly on to the TV in a seamless experience. HbbTV services can be activated in a number of ways, the most popular being pressing the Red. Users typically explore services with the traditional navigation keys (including the OK button and the Red, Green, Yellow, Blue). The current version of the HbbTV specification also includes support for “adaptive streaming” of video over a broadband connection thus guaranteeing the best possible image quality for the viewer. For more information about HbbTV, visit www.hbbtv.org Some models may not be supported.

To Use HbbTV
Settings All Settings icon Programmes HbbTV Sets HbbTV to On. Enjoy a wide variety of content from HbbTV enabled services. Service features may be limited when the TV is not connected to the internet. The functionality and quality of the HbbTV service may vary depending on the quality of your broadband connection. HbbTV services are not guaranteed to be available for all programs – only those that your broadcaster chooses to support.

Some models may not be supported.
When Live Playback is in operation, HbbTV is disabled. While using the HbbTV service, navigation keys and the Wheel (OK) button may be disabled if the Magic Remote’s pointer is activated on the screen.
