15th DTVP & DTG Plugfest and HbbTV Testing Event in Berlin

Deutsche TV-Plattform is continuing its successful Plugfest series in cooperation with DTG UK in 2024. The 15th edition will take place from 7-11 October in Berlin at Fraunhofer FOKUS. Following the Plugfest on 7-9 October, an HbbTV Testing Event hosted by the HbbTV Association’s HbbTV Testing Group will take place at the same venue from 9-11 October.

The focus of the Plugfest this time is on HbbTV, streaming, immersive audio and DVB-I, as well as traditionally on UHD-HDR tests (HDMI). As always, it is aimed at device manufacturers, broadcasters, technology providers, platform operators, research and development institutions and standardisation bodies.

The HbbTV Testing Event is an opportunity for HbbTV implementers to execute tests on their devices and log those executions as part of the evidence required to approve test cases for the Test Suite v2024-3 release. The representatives of test material providers will be available to discuss problems found with either the test material or implementation. The event participants will have temporary access to the test harness necessary for executing the test cases at the event.
