+ This document introduces you to the Multimedia Hardware Adaptation Interfaces
+collection. The Multimedia Hardware Adaptation Interfaces
+(HAI) collection defines hardware-independent interfaces for controlling the
+hardware component, such as: Mobile TV reception Video hardware
+
Symbian +provides APIs for use by hardware integrators so they can implement their +own mobile TV solutions.
The APIs are introduced with their components. +The Multimedia components DevVideo and DevSound provide APIs for handling +the media data once the raw data stream has been extracted by the Multimedia +HAI components.
The Multimedia HAI provides support +for controlling the hardware component, and handling the data streams.
The APIs provided make it possible to write +an implementation of a supported mobile TV standard that can control and manage +the incoming signals including splitting the signal into an audio, video and +information stream.
Support +is currently provided for the DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcast-Handset) transmission +standard. DVB-H is a superset of the DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcast-Terrestrial) +standard.
Other +standard mobile TV formats include:
Digital Multimedia Broadcasting +(DMB)
TDtv (subset of TD-CDMA)
1seg (part of ISDB-T)
DAB
MediaFLO
Note: The Symbian platform does not provide any support +for these other standards at present.
The Multimedia HAI collection includes +the following:
Mobile +TV DVB-H Receiver HAI
Video HAI
The
The
Hardware integrators can write +device drivers or servers to manage the component like:
Reception of mobile TV signals (currently +only DVB-H)
Video
These components expose APIs that are independent of +the underlying implementation and hardware specifics.
