About Qvest HbbTV Emulator
The Qvest HbbTV Emulator lets you run and navigate HbbTV applications directly in Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge (to use it in Microsoft Edge, simply install the emulator from the Chrome Web Store). It emulates a real TV environment, including video playback, broadcast simulation, and StreamEvent handling.
Features:
- NEW: MPEG-DASH playback for HbbTV 1.5 (OIPF) and HbbTV 2.x (HTML5)
- NEW: DRM support for PlayReady (MS Edge only) and Widevine
- NEW: User Agent Manager — add, manage, and switch between custom HbbTV user agents. Use the autodetect feature to extract the device brand, type, year, and HbbTV version from any HbbTV user-agent string and use it as a label
- NEW: Channel Manager — set up a list of emulated TV broadcast channels with all the necessary parameters and custom channel images/videos, then switch between channels just as you would with a TV remote control
- Run and test HbbTV web apps and pages
- Set a custom user agent
- Check safe-area alignment
- Simulate TV broadcast channels using demo or custom image and video files (.jpg, .png, and .mp4)

Ideal for developers who want to validate and debug HbbTV applications quickly and efficiently.
