DTVKit, a leading provider of royalty free DVB software solutions for digital television, has partnered with Ocean Blue Software to offer a version of the innovative ORB HbbTV 2.0.3 solution fully integrated to DTVKit DVBCore and DSMCC with versions for both RDK and Android.
The key advantage of this solution is that its innovative architecture uses the existing system browser (WPE or Android Webview) instead of having to add another browser to support HbbTV. This reduces system complexity, software footprint and subsequent resource requirements.
The HbbTV solution by DTVKit (IBC exhibitor, 1.D61) is executed primarily in Javascript, providing flexibility and ease of development. The use of reusable C++ components further enhances performance and reliability. “This combination enables OEMs and developers to leverage their existing expertise in these widely used programming languages, reducing the learning curve and simplifying the development process,” DTVKit explains.
“By utilising DTVKit’s fully integrated version of the ORB solution, OEMs can significantly reduce their time-to-market for launching HbbTV-enabled services,” the vendor adds.
As with all DTVKit software, the ORB HbbTV solution is available with full source code access and is royalty-free for DTVKit members.
