This Recommendation defines a modular extension to [ITU-T J.202], and updated as GEM
[ETSI TS 102 819], which defines how the recording and playback of digital video (and audio)
content is integrated with the GEM [ETSI TS 102 819] platform. This Recommendation is firstly
intended to be used by entities writing terminal specifications and/or standards that extend a GEM
[ETSI TS 102 819] terminal specification with digital video (and audio) recording and playback.
Secondly, it is intended for developers of GEM [ETSI TS 102 819] applications that wish to use
digital video (and audio) recording and playback. Implementers should consult the publisher of
specifications which reference GEM [ETSI TS 102 819] regarding conformance.
NOTE – This Recommendation defines the interfaces visible to applications. Application developers should
not assume that any related interface is available unless it is specifically listed. Terminal standards or
implementations may have other interfaces present. One of the primary goals of this Recommendation is to
maximize the common aspects concerning the integration of digital video/audio recording between
MHP [ETSI ES 201 812] and the various GEM [ETSI TS 102 819] terminal specifications.
