Digital Video Broadcasting Project (DVB) is a global standard for the delivery of digital television and data services. 
The scope of the DVB has been widened to build a content environment that combines the stability and interoperability of the world of broadcast with the vigor, innovation and multiplicity of services of the world of the Internet. 
The core of DVB’s new mission is to provide the tools and mechanisms to facilitate interoperability and interworking between different networks, devices and systems to allow content and content based services to be passed through the value chain to the consumer.

Updated Standard

Latest technology has produced the DVB-S2 standard designed to satisfy not only the needs of consumer direct-to-home broadcasters but also sets the stage for a paradigm shift in the delivery of broadband interactive services via satellite.
