Terminal Equipment (TE); End-to-end protocols for multimedia information retrieval services; Part 3: Application Programmable Interface (API) for MHEG-5

Scope

This European Telecommunications Standard (ETS) specifies the Application Programmable Interface (API) for the manipulation of multimedia and hypermedia information objects, i.e. the API that shall be provided by MHEG-5 engines for their control by applications running on a DAVIC 1.1 compliant terminal. MHEG part 5 (ISO/IEC 13522-5 [1]) is a standard, which specifies the coded representation of interchanged multimedia/hypermedia information objects (MHEG-5 objects) for base level applications. These so-called MHEG-5 objects are handled, interpreted and presented by MHEG-5 engines.
