REN/JTC-DVB-376

Digitalna videoradiodifuzija (DVB) - Specifikacija za servisne informacije (SI) v sistemih DVB

Ta dokument določa servisne informacije (SI), ki so del bitnih tokov DVB, da lahko uporabnik pridobi informacije, ki so mu v pomoč pri izboru storitev in/ali dogodkov znotraj bitnega toka, in da bi se lahko vgrajeni sprejemnik-dekodirnik (IRD) samodejno konfiguriral glede na izbrano storitev. Servisne informacije za samodejno konfiguracijo so v standardu ISO/IEC 13818-1 [15] večinoma podane kot informacije, specifične za program (PSI). V tem dokumentu so določeni dodatni podatki, ki dopolnjujejo informacije, specifične za program, pri čemer se zagotovijo podatki za lažje samodejno uglaševanje
vgrajenih sprejemnikov-dekodirnikov in dodatne informacije, ki so dostopne uporabnikom. Dokument ne določa načina predstavitve informacij, zato lahko proizvajalci vgrajenih sprejemnikov-dekodirnikov sami izberejo ustrezne metode predstavitve. Pričakovati je, da bodo elektronska programska vodila (EPG) del digitalnih televizijskih prenosov. Definicija elektronskega programskega vodila ne spada na področje uporabe tega dokumenta (tj. specifikacija servisnih informacij), vendar se lahko podatki v okviru servisnih informacij iz tega dokumenta uporabijo kot osnova za elektronsko programsko vodilo. Pravila delovanja za izvajanje tega dokumenta so določena v tehnični specifikaciji ETSI TS 101 211 [i.1].
