HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV) is a 

standard that seamlessly combines TV services 

delivered via broadcast with services delivered via 

broadband and also enables access to Internet only 

services for consumers using connected TVs and set-

top boxes. Services delivered through HbbTV include 

traditional broadcast TV channels, catch-up services, 

video-on-demand, EPG, interactive advertising, 

personalisation, voting, games, social networking and 

other multimedia applications. 
HbbTV applications are available on channels where 

they are signalled by the broadcaster (currently 

various channels on Astra broadcast HbbTV 

applications). The broadcaster marks one application 

as “autostart” and this one is started by the platform 

automatically. The applications are generally launched 

with a small red button icon to notify the user that 

there is an HbbTV application on that channel (The 

shape and the location of the red button depends on 

the application). The red button is displayed for some 

and then may disappear. The user then should press 

the red button to open the application page. After the 

page is displayed the user can go back to the initial 

red button icon state by pressing the red button again. 

The user can toggle between the red button icon mode 

and full UI mode of the application via pressing red 

button. It should be noted that the red button switching 

capability is provided by the application and some 

application may behave differently.

Figure x: Service with red button application (taken 

from HbbTV specification)
If you switch to another channel while an HbbTV 

application is active (either in red button icon mode 

or full UI mode), the following scenarios can occur.
• The application can continue running.
• The application can be terminated.
• The application can be terminated and another 

autostart red button application can be launched.      

HbbTv allows the applications to be retrieved both 

from broadband or broadcast. The broadcaster may 

enable both ways or one of them. If the platfrom does 

not have an operational broadband connection, the 

platform can still launch applications transmitted on 

broadcast. 
The autostart red button applications generally provide 

links to other applications. An example of this is shown 

below. The user then can switch to other applications 

by using the links provided. The applications should 

provide a way to terminate themselves, usually button 

0 is used for this.

Figure a: Start bar application

Figure b: EPG application, broadcast video is shown 

on the left bottom, can be terminated by pressing 0. 
HbbTv applications use keys on the remote control to 

interact with the user. When an HbbTv applications is 

launched, the control of some keys are owned by the 

application. For example, numeric channel selection 

may not work on a teletext application where the 

numbers indicate teletext pages. 
HbbTv requires AV streaming capability for the 

platform. There are numerous applications providing 

VOD (video on demand) and catch-up TV services. 

The user can use play, pause, stop, forward, and 

rewind keys on the remote control to interact with 

the AV content

Ensure that the firewalls of your network allows the 

TV wireless connection. If the wireless network does 

not function properly, try using the wired network in 

your home. Refer to the 

Wired Connection section 

for more information on the process.
If the Net TV does not function, check the modem 

(router) first. If the router does not have a problem, 

check the internet connection of your modem.

products, the radio wave conditions, the line traffic, 

and the products that you use. The transmission 

may also be cut off or get disconnected depending
