HbbTV 2.0 Companion Screen feature is now supported by Inaris HbbTV Solution


In collaboration with the IRT, we have set-up a demonstration on how the HbbTV 2.0 Companion Screen feature can be used by companion applications. This demonstration was shown at IRT’s booth at Medientage 2016 in Munich.

In collaboration with the Institut fĂĽr Rundfunktechnik, we have set-up a demonstration on how the HbbTV 2.0 Companion Screen feature can be used by companion applications. The demonstration shows an enhanced version of the ARD Mediathek on an Android tablet interacting with an HbbTV capable set-top box running the Inaris HbbTV Solution. This allows the consumer to browse and select live channels as well as on-demand media content in the companion application and directly cast it to the TV screen. The playback can be controlled from the second screen application.

This demonstration was shown at IRT’s booth at Medientage 2016 in Munich (25-27 October) with the friendly assistance of Mr. Klaus Merkel (IRT).
