Internet access clients
MHP supports referencing DVB services & content on the web.
No requirement for MHP terminals to support internet streaming media content.
Notes:
MHP supports referencing DVB services & content on the web. That is clicking on a link to DVB content will launch the DVB service (such as video). However, there appears to be an attempt to keep MHP self contained and not blended with web content. There is no requirement for MHP terminals to support internet streaming media content, but the Java Media Framework (Java Media Player Specification) can be used to provide this. MHP devices are required to support the "mailto" URL, allowing the user to send e-mail using an SMTP client or Web-based mail service. Protocols for receiving email are not specified, but could be assumed to use POP or web based email. Support of Usenet news via NNTP or a Web-based client is included in the Internet Access profile. E-mail is not necessarily required by all users, but Usenet news can be efficiently distributed by broadcast.
