Webinar announcement: Reference Test Applications explained
Ensuring long term compatibility of streaming services on an ever-evolving set of streaming devices is a key problem for the industry. Huge amounts of time and money are spent each year ensuring the availability of services for viewers and ensuring support and maintenance costs remain manageable.
The HbbTV association’s next webinar, on 1 July 2025, 10:00-11:00 CEST, will review some of the most recent approaches taken by platform operators, test services providers and media services companies to create reference test applications and test tools which build on top of HbbTV, DASH and PlayReady. We will look at four approaches recently deployed and discuss the benefits of test tooling and test applications to allow the industry to confidently launch services that will be enjoyed by customers for years to come!
Join us for an engaging discussion with industry leaders on the cutting-edge approach to ensuring interoperability.
