Abstract

As different technologies emerge each day in the context of digital television, interaction functionalities are becoming crucial once users are already familiarized with the interaction on the web. Although digital television standards provide ways to interact with the content, more complex manipulations can be accomplished using the MPEG-J specification, which is part of the MPEG-4 standard. In this paper, we present a technique that aims at the generation of dynamic and interactive content from interactive sources like the web, enabling users, despite their limited interactivity with the content of TV, have access to fresh dynamic content that is generated in real time during the video's compilation. Although we have not explored the full potential of MPEG-J, we think that this work is the first step for more contributions in the area of digital and interactive television.
