Phil Laven suggested a few reflections on some of the issues at DVB World as a wrap up…..
- Can Hybrid Broadcast/Broadband work when there is more than one person viewing the TV? Or will screens that combine pictures with multimedia overlay actually just irritate when there are many viewers of the same set?
- Will the Commission ever understand the potential for interference and limits to services caused unless spectrum is well managed? How can we bring the message to them?
Phil added more concerns.
-Getting nations to choose the same set of options for their new digital television services is obviously difficult. What can we do?
- Does the DVB ‘toolbox’ /consensus approach itself encourage fragmentation?
And suggested that next year we may be wondering about ’stereoscopic TV’……
