Via Licensing removes MHP royalty for FTA broadcasters

13 June 2008

A letter sent by Via Licensing president Jean-Michel Bourdon to the DVB Project on June 12th, 2008 states that the members of the MHP patent pool have decided to remove the requirement for free-to-air broadcasters to pay MHP patent license fees.

The Via Licensing website (www.vialicensing.com) will be updated to reflect this change in the coming days.

More information about MHP deployments and advice for those wishing to implement the specifications can be found on the official MHP and GEM website: www.mhp.org
