Enhancing the viewers' experience in DVB-H services is a key factor in consumer success
Barcelona, February 2008 - With the advent of mobile television broadcasting in Europe, service providers increasingly
feel the need of those applications and interactive services, that would drive end-users' attention to contents on the
small screen. Such services will make mobile TV different from anything we have seen in television history before.
Around half a billion handsets capable of mobile TV broadcast reception are expected to be in the users' pockets by 2011,
according to sources at Nokia Siemens Networks. With the first DVB-H
capable handsets hitting the shelves now, key players in the industry are focusing their attention on the attractiveness
of the service. It is clear to see, that positive user experience heavily rely on tailor-made contents for mobile devices
and on interactive services capable to distinguish mobile TV usage scenario from the traditional, 'watching
TV in the living room' model.
ITware, with its strong background in the mobile communications industry has soon realised the need for a framework
that could provide users with such an experience that would easily become a selling feature for mobile TV services and
DVB-H enabled handsets.
"Having seen the tedious marketing efforts to make 3rd generation services popular among mobile phone users,
it's not difficult to predict that the emergence of mobile TV services might end-up the same way" explains Sándor Dankó,
CEO of the Budapest company. "It's in the interest of all industry players to avoid that situation. With our vision of
mobile TV we believe to help this service become popular very fast."
János Winkler, head of the department at T-Mobile Hungary responsible for
mobile TV services also emphasised the importance of ease-of-use and user experience. Technological background is available
to create applications which provide users with feature-rich, interactive experience. One of the key features of DVB-H
broadcast is that it provides a feedback channel, something that digital terrestrial and satellite broadcasts lack by
default.
MoTiVi: social functions unleashed
"It would be a real shame if this feedback channel would remain unused" the developers explain at ITware.
"Electronic programme guides, other meta-applications that DVB-H technology vendors offer do not make a real use of
this powerful feature." At ITware experts believe that a high-level interactivity based on this feedback channel will
make mobile TV user experience different from any TV based experience we have seen before.
The widespread use of video-sharing services like YouTube has changed
the way people consume video content. Television technology has not allowed similar user scenarios,
but ITware's MoTiVi concept application for DVB-H enabled phones is definitely a step introducing social
interactivity into the world of television. The users of MoTiVi are no longer limited by channels, programme guides
and schedules - MoTiVi offers available TV programmes in a variety of ways and a variety of ways to interact with
them. Programme guides become the users themselves.
But MoTiVi does not simply offer TV programmes in a more interactive way, more like it offers interactivity related
to all available mobile TV contents. Users can interact with each other and such social interactions help them choose the
right programme to watch. "It is all based on the fact, that TV programmes often initiate discussions, conversations
even among people who don't know each other. MoTiVi provides a space for that and assesses the results of such
discussions, to orient people much better than a regular TV guide" another developer explain.
Obviously screen sizes are limiting: watching a football match or Blade Runner on a 1.5-2 inch display of a mobile
phone is not too compelling when LCD TV vendors stick HD Ready logos on almost all their products.
But the possibility of sharing the TV experience with a click of a button, the brand new way of accessing TV programmes
will make MoTiVi an inevitable tool to orient viewers in the upcoming tsunami of digital TV contents.

Hungarian ICT company ITware to provide solution for mobile access of e-learning materials
Thanks to its presence at the 3GSMWorld 2006 conference, the Budapest-based company ITware, specialist in mobile content delivery and in mobile payment platforms, has been selected to be one of the key players in developing innovative content delivery platforms for the LOGOS e-learning project.
The aim of the LOGOS project is to open up and make available existing large-scale repositories of digitized information as an easy-to-use source of knowledge accessible from a wide-array of devices: the integration of Internet based communication, 3rd generation mobile access, and digital TV technologies are key aspects in the successful delivery of knowledge to everyone in life-long learning across Europe. Another noteworthy effect of the project will be the revenue for mobile operators resulting from the delivery of rich multimedia content to end-user mobile devices.
The project involves interdisciplinary activities: the source materials currently available in national audio-visual archives have to be adapted for e-learning purposes, and in the meantime the cross-platform solution for content-delivery has to be developed as well. The project kicked off in March 2006 and has a 3 year long lifetime involving 15 participants from nine EU countries with a budget of EUR 3,610,800. ITware is responsible for the development of the platform for delivering e-learning materials to end-user 3G/GSM terminals. This part of LOGOS project is supervised by Antenna Hungária, which is the coordinator of the whole project.
Ubiquitous learning is an important part of the life-long learning strategy accepted by EU members at Lisboa in March 2000 to facilitate mobility in European labor markets, and thus enhancing the competitivity of the European industrial and services sector. As Hungarian Minister of Education Bálint Magyar said: "The impact of the project is to assure access to e-learning materials using cross-media channels, therefore the restructuring of HR markets would be quicker and more effective." It is a gratifying challenge for ITware to participate in such an important and innovative project - contributing to it with all its 11 year expertise in mobile content delivery and platform development.
ITware presents Rapidiary at INI-GraphicsNet Stiftung Technology Presentation
