I've been working on an OpenMHP (a free MHP implementation) plugin for VDR. I'm not quite ready to release the software yet, but from a suggestion of the people working with OpenMHP, I wrote an introduction page for it, and thought I'd post the address here as well:

Wow Mikko, that looks fantastic! :))
Could you perhaps explain how MHEG-5 relates to MHP? I ask because all of the UK DVB-T 'interactive content' is using MHEG-5 and it would be great to think that your plugin would be able to run this content since the UK is still some time away from moving to a full MHP implementation :)
Cheers, Gavin.

Nope, sorry. I know shamefully little of the actual standards involved, I'm just plugging things together :)

Now that looks just amazing, big thanks for your work :)

Some of you know there is that other MHP plugin which is suffering from lack of time, low motivation and some other problems for quite some time now. I'd like to point out that there is not much duplicated work between these plugins because of fundamental architectures/design decisions. A short list of features/advantages, incomplete for the OpenMHP plugin because I only read the introductory web page:
OpenMHP: -working ;-) -display on OSD -uses SUN's VM and standard AWT -based on OpenMHP MHP implementation -run in different process, connected by means of inter-process communication
vdr-mhp: -based on DirectFB, custom AWT -trying to avoid SUN software -tightly integrated in the VDR unix process, started by JNI -AIT parsing and DSMCC implementation
I am open to any kind of code-sharing. And I am interested in these Finnish xlets as a testcase, if they run offline.
