English - 30 - Internet Connection Not Available / Audio Video Sharing Not Working If the MAC address (a unique identifier number) of your PC or modem has been permanently registered, it is possible that your TV might not connect to the internet. In such a case, the MAC address is authenticated each time when you connect to the internet. This is a precaution against unauthorized access. Since your TV has its own MAC address, your internet service provider cannot validate the MAC address of your TV. For this reason, your TV cannot connect to the internet. Contact your internet service provider and request information on how to connect a different device, such as your TV, to the internet. It is also possible that the connection may not be available due to a firewall problem. If you think this causes your problem, contact your internet service provider. A firewall might be the reason of a connectivity and discovery problem while using the TV in Audio Video Sharing mode or while browsing via Audio Video Sharing feature. Invalid Domain Ensure that you have already logged on to your PC with an authorized username/password and also ensure that your domain is active, prior to sharing any files in your media server program on your PC.

HBBTV System HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV) is a new industry 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 settop boxes. Services delivered through HbbTV include traditional broadcast TV channels, catch-up services, video-on-demand, electronic programme guide, 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 autostart applications are generally launched with a small red button icon to notify the user that there is an HbbTV application on that channel. Press the red button to open the application page. After the page is displayed you can go back to the initial red button icon state by pressing the red button again. You 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. 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. English - 32 - HbbTV allows the applications to be retrieved both from broadband or broadcast. The broadcaster may enable both ways or one of them. If the platform 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. The user then can switch to other applications by using the links provided. The applications should provide a way to terminate themselves, usually Exit button is used for this. HbbTV applications use keys on the remote control to interact with the user. When an HbbTV application 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. Note: You can enable or disable this feature from the More menu in Settings>System menu. Depending on the model of your TV and the selected country option in the First Time Installation this feature might be available in the Settings>System>Privacy Settings menu instead of the Settings>System>More menu.
