Abstract :
The main purpose of this paper is related to the interactive content of DVB-MHP (multimedia home platform) and MPEG-4 where their activities could be combined. These two technologies enable interactivity, but both have different origin and mature action. We sketch here a specific T-learning application scenario and we specified some requirements that show the combination of both techniques. The joint utilisation of MHP and the MPEG-4 for making content available to the user opens new applications with a personalised viewing experience. Moreover, the user can interact with content, both locally and remotely via a set-top-box
