This Recommendation describes the functionalities of the scalable vector graphics (SVG) for IPTV services. SVG, as one of those standard multimedia application frameworks described in [ITU-T H.760], provides interoperable use of IPTV services. IPTV terminal devices supporting SVG can provide functionalities of a variety of content and its interactivity, such as audio, video, graphics and text. Expected services include additional data such as text, animation to enrich TV programmes, and two-way portal pages.

This Recommendation describes the profiles, which is a subset of W3C SVG [W3C SVG Tiny], classified into 2 levels to be implemented by IPTV TD Basic model [ITU-T H.721], Mobile model [ITU-T H.723] and Full-fledged model [ITU-T H.722] with different service capabilities. It describes the use of IP-based protocols for transport of SVG and IPTV-related services.
