Enjoy HbbTV
What you can do
Some broadcasters of digital channels offer
interactive HbbTV (Hybrid Broadcast
Broadband TV).
With HbbTV, broadcasters combine their
normal TV programme with all kinds of
information or entertainment. You can
browse this information interactively. You
can respond to a programme or vote, do
online shopping or pay for a video-on-
demand programme.
To fully enjoy HbbTV, you need to connect
your TV to the Internet. Read more about
connecting the TV to the Internet in
Connect your TV > Computers and the
Internet (Page 52).
Note: You cannot download files to your TV
with this feature.

HbbTV, the interactive pages will open
automatically or, at some point, you will be
invited to open them.
Depending on the broadcaster, you might
need to press the red button or OK on the
remote control to access the page.
To exit the HbbTV pages, select the relevant
button on screen and press OK.

(stop) buttons.
HbbTV text
Some broadcasters offer HbbTV Text, a
new version of Text. Depending on the
broadcaster, you might need an Internet

You can use the same remote control
buttons to navigate HbbTV Text as you did
