Suite Features Latest Components, Espial Escape 5.0 and Espial Espresso 5.0, and Broader Support for Native and Java Platforms
IBC, Amsterdam,(PRWEB) Sept. 17, 2003 — Espial, the leaders in TV application software today announced the availability of the latest version of Espial Suite for TV. Having gained a strong market position for Java platforms, Espial Suite for TV is now available for native platforms, and features further advancement of the Espial Escape and Espial Espresso components towards reducing time to market for revenue generating TV applications.
The latest version of Espial Suite for TV features advancements in three key areas:
· Support for Native Platforms enables Espial TV applications to be run side-by-side with native applications on any consumer electronics platform
· More scalability allows TV applications to be configured to meet the needs of the design, for example Espial Escape can be scaled from a tiny 125k broadcast XLET to a full Internet browser
· New features exclusive to the TV market such as UI components for developing program guides and DOM extensions to improve walled-garden browsing
This flexible configuration is an absolute requirement for TV designs, as set-top box OEMs must meet the demands of a diverse user population with unique functionality requirements. With the Espial Suite, applications can be configured for different features, then customized to meet look & feel requirements. For example, with no programming changes, the same core Espial Escape browser can be configured as a tiny broadcast XLET or to provide high-end browsing functionality including HTML 4.0, JavaScript, DOM, CSS, XML, and multimedia capabilities for other more powerful devices.
“Considerable time and engineering talent were assigned to assure the latest version of Espial Suite for TV met and exceeded the quickly progressing TV world,” said Dr. Neale Foster, director of TV at Espial. “Working closely with our customers who have deployed previous versions of the software in millions of devices, we have been able to build the new features and functionality they need to remain competitive into the latest Suite.”
