CEA CEA-2027-B Document Information:
Title
A User Interface Specification for Home Networks Using Web-based Protocols
Consumer Electronics Association
Publication Date:
Oct 1, 2007
Scope:
This standard addresses user control of remote A/V devices on
home networks.
It defines mechanisms that allow the A/V devices to present
status and control user interfaces on a network-attached renderer,
and specifies a method for encapsulating this UI data using Web and
Internet protocols.
User control is exerted through a browser and graphical user
interface that is contained in the rendering device. The design of
these graphical and user interfaces is determined solely by the
implementers of this standard, and may utilize any content design
up to and including the full capability of the devices and network
technology.
Annex A is normative for implementations utilizing IEEE 1394.
Future versions of this standard are expected to address other home
networking technologies in additional Annexes.
This specification describes the minimum capabilities of the
client browser and the controller/server. A compliant browser may
have additional capabilities for worldwide web surfing, E-Commerce,
or Enhanced TV applications, but that is out of scope for this
standard.
A renderer in the current version of this standard may be a DTV
or a PC, but other rendering devices are anticipated. A/V devices
may include a source of home-network content, such as a cable or
terrestrial set-top box, digital VCR, or DTV.
Warning: CEA-2027-B requirements are not a
backward compatible extension of those in the CEA-2027-A
specification.
