iRiver - DAB Slideshow

Posted on Wednesday, January 24th, 2007 at 5:57pm. #

DAB Digital Radio Slideshow

Launched by selected commercial radio stations today in the UK. Full-colour pictures on a DAB Digital Radio - using the WorldDMB standard for DAB Slideshow, and displaying pictures on any DAB Slideshow capable device, like this pre-production iRiver. Nice.

Demo at www.future-of-radio.co.uk if you don’t have one of these devices for yourself.

Participating stations are Capital Radio, Heart 106.2, Magic 105.4, Kiss, Xfm and Virgin Radio Xtreme.

Update: Replaced simulated picture with actual.
