  • Abstract
    In last decade, we have seen the first steps to the end of passive television. Digital technology is mature enough to enhance traditional TV (limited to content reproduction) with computing capability to run multimedia software integrating richer formats. One step further, Internet access through television is becoming a real possibility. The MHP standard is the first one that tries to define regulations in that sense. Here, we comment some technical aspects of the MHP solution.
