Abstract :
Interoperability in digital TV is still hampered by proprietary content protection systems. The OPIMA specification offers a generic solution for multimedia terminals, in which the end-user´s terminal is adapted to a content protection system by downloading a corresponding plug-in. This paper describes the OPIMA solution and shows how it can be applied to digital TV
