Abstract
With the increase in the demand for digital television (DTV) in various standards, high quality content (HDTV), mobile TV, video-on-demand services and interactive TV, a new problem of much more complexity in various TV technologies appeared that makes cross platform solutions very difficult to achieve. One of the main factors increasing complexity is wide use of the Internet for delivering such TV services beside the traditional broadcast of TV content. To make the connection of these technologies feasible and in this way to provide the TV users with easy and convenient access to TV content from as many sources as possible some kind of unification and standardization needed to be introduced. This paper provides an overview of global standardization approach, namely the TV-Anytime (TVA) standard [6]. The aim of the TVA standard is to enable a flexible use of TV across a wide range of networks and connected devices. One of the main assumptions of TVA is that user should be fully agnostic of technology and source of the requested content in the same way as in cloud computing domain. We describe the motivation of its use, its principles as well as the base features defined by this standard to satisfy the most recent TV domain trends. We provide also the practical example of the TVA system usage for better understanding the theoretical principles.
