A reception apparatus, comprising:
- a memory that stores a television receiver application and a native application;
- a processor configured to:
- send, by the native application to the television receiver application, a query command regarding a number of services available for display,
- receive, by the native application from the television receiver application in response to the query command, a query response message including at least a first parameter that specifies a number of associated services available for display, and
- provide, by the native application, a video surface for each service indicated in the first parameter,
- wherein the query response message further includes a second parameter that specifies a display format and a third parameter that specifies a location of content corresponding to the associated services available for display, and
- wherein the display format is one of a JPEG format, a Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) format, and a TV format.
A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein, which when executed by a processor in a reception apparatus causes the processor to execute a method comprising:
- sending, by a native application to a television receiver application, a query command regarding a number of services available for display,
- receiving, by the native application from the television receiver application in response to the query command, a query response message including at least a first parameter that specifies a number of associated services available for display, and
- providing, by the native application, a video surface for each service indicated in the first parameter,
- wherein the query response message further includes a second parameter that specifies a display format and a third parameter that specifies a location of content corresponding to the associated services available for display, and
