includes an interactive middleware (software) used for digital
terrestrial television. "Originally developed and standardized by ISO
in the mid 1990s, MHEG-5 is a low-cost open standard that can run on
limited hardware. It also has limited capabilities compared to more
advanced proprietary platforms, or the MHP standard which was designed
as its successor." (Informitv)

MHEG-5 - (Multimedia and Hypermedia information coding Experts Group) - The MHEG-5 standard was originally developed a decade ago and offers very basic interactive facilities through a declarative description language. This means that unlike procedural languages which can be used to produce more complex interactive applications, MHEG-5 is generally limited to simple text and graphics services. A working group is currently developing a specification to enable the use of a broadband return path with MHEG-5.

MHEG-6 is often more associated with advanced MHEG interactivity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mheg |
