The Boat is coming to the end of the 41st International Conference and Exhibition PIKE, during which Polish TV on the stand you can see the program first broadcast in 4K resolution and surround sound, which is not worthy of cinema hit released on Blu-Ray. The future of TV is going to be impressive.
The test transmission, which can be seen in Lodz, has been realized using hybrid TV HbbTV ( Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV ). This standard combines TV broadcasting in the provision of content through the Internet. Its main advantage is the ability to connect additional interactive content to the program broadcast live. In the course of watching TV, you can also use television and gain additional information, like the well-known teletext, but not limited to 8 colors.
About This standard says that it is “the next generation of multimedia teletext”. One of its tasks is to divert viewers from smartphones to again acquire supplementary information (from crisis warning by the television program the other videos on request) with remote control in hand. Thanks to the feedback that reaches the sender, you can also explore in detail viewership of programs.
The position of TVP were selected TVs LG Ultra HD 4K from this year’s line, with built-in HEVC codec and prepared to receive the 4K material. On them you can test the application built by Polish Television and Dolby. Application support is reminiscent of the good old teletext – blue button takes you to the main menu, closes the application red, yellow goes to full screen mode playback of the selected material, and the navigation is done using the arrows on the remote. The tests included transmit HD content with surround sound and HD Ultra compressed codec HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding / h.265) and Dolby Digital surround sound. The test was also broadcast HD and 4K video in MPEG-DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over http).
It was the first TV HbbTV test in Europe, but is by no means the first transmission of 4K resolution carried by Polish Television. During this year’s World Cup in soccer in Brazil was able to receive the transmission of the match 4K Eutelsat 10 ° east. TVP also praises the use of 4K material at the Centre for Documentation and Collections Programming the reconstruction of the light-sensitive tape archive.
HD TV was presented in 1990, but its adoption on a large scale began several years later. With 4K will be the same – different stations (Discovery) test their capabilities and examine the ground, but no promises. The development of television in 4K resolution before us. At the end of last year predicted that by 2020 the world’s 200 television channels will broadcast in 4K, and by the end of 2025 the number exceeds a thousand.
Of course, in the context of terrestrial multiplexes in 4K resolution TV with surround sound will not be transmitted because it simply is not the case. The standard rate may be applied if the television broadcast will be the high-speed Internet. But this is still a very distant future, and for now the Poles still do not quite have what to buy 4K TVs. Well I guess that Netflix actually enter the Polish next year.
