The second technical working group tasked to pick a Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) technology standard for the Philippines has recommended the adoption of Europe’s Digital Video Broadcast Handheld or DVB-H platform. This reiterates the recommendation made by the first working group - whose members include the Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster ng Pilipinas, Philippine Information Agency and 48 broadcasting firms - in 2006. That group also said the European standard should be adopted for Philippine use.

I’m sceptical about that DVB-H standard. There are already DVB-T cellphones on the market. When is DVB-H supposed to reach a critical audience, in 2011? In 2012? Its resolution will be too low for new handhelds by then.
