Washington — The Open Mobile Video Coalition (OMVC) released a report on Wednesday detailing new levels of services using non-real-time content broadcasters can deploy over the Mobile TV system.

A standard for delivery of non-real-time content, recently finalized by the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC), broadens the scope of Mobile TV by allowing viewers to preload favorite shows into the memory of a mobile device for playback later, among other uses.
