equal citizens," }, { "start": 144, "end": 145, "text": " they're all just inputs, right?" }, { "start": 145, "end": 151, "text": " So you can switch between Netflix or your HDMI 1 or your Xbox on HDMI 3 or whatever it is." }, { "start": 151, "end": 158, "text": " But the TV input is a really complicated one, because there's cable boxes," }, { "start": 158, "end": 163, "text": " and they've got their own UI for navigating channels, there's live TV, there's DVRs." }, { "start": 163, "end": 169, "text": " So, it makes really good sense for understanding how I'm going to switch across that line," }, { "start": 169, "end": 173, "text": " past, present, and future, between Netflix and Hulu." }, { "start": 173, "end": 178, "text": " But I'm wondering, that simple line, if you guys are trying to make it very simple," }, { "start": 178, "end": 184, "text": " how are you dealing with the very complex world of everything else that's happening with channels on TV?" }, { "start": 184, "end": 185, "text": " Sure thing." }, { "start": 185, "end": 187, "text": " So let me give some thoughts there." }, { "start": 187, "end": 189, "text": " There's really three things we need to solve." }, { "start": 189, "end": 193, "text": " First is control, then discovery, then integration." }, { "start": 193, "end": 195, "text": " So let me talk about each one." }, { "start": 195, "end": 199, "text": " So, obviously if you have a TV set-top box or something like that, you need ways to control it." }, { "start": 199, "end": 203, "text": " And a metric remote control actually comes with an IR blaster built in." }, { "start": 203, "end": 207, "text": " And so, as you set up our TV and we recognize your set-top box, or you tell us what set-top box you have," }, { "start": 207, "end": 211, "text": " we actually have a way to make sure that you're using one remote control to control your set-top boxes," }, { "start": 211, "end": 213, "text": " so you're not swapping remotes." }, { "start": 213, "end": 215, "text": " Right, but you are swapping UIs, right?" }, { "start": 215, "end": 221, "text": " So you've got the WebOS UI, which is the beautiful, well-designed interface that I want to use," }, { "start": 221, "end": 223, "text": " which is beautiful in all design." }, { "start": 223, "end": 225, "text": " And then you've got your cable blocks, which is awful." }, { "start": 225, "end": 228, "text": " And you're using the same remote to control both of them." }, { "start": 228, "end": 232, "text": " Did you guys think about that stuff, or did you say, look, that problem is too hard," }, { "start": 232, "end": 235, "text": " let's do the best job of solving the problems we can?" }, { "start": 235, "end": 238, "text": " So how we're solving that is through the discovery component." }, { "start": 238, "end": 241, "text": " So you really have a lot of content you can watch." }, { "start": 241, "end": 244, "text": " That's across your over-the-top content as well as your live TV." }, { "start": 244, "end": 247, "text": " And we come up with various ways to harmonize this." }, { "start": 247, "end": 252, "text": " So if you look at our Today menu, for example, you can actually discover content across live TV" }, { "start": 252, "end": 254, "text": " and your streaming content." }, { "start": 254, "end": 259, "text": " So you could, of course, choose to go to your set-top box and to the EPG to find out this data," }, { "start": 259, "end": 264, "text": " but we're trying to integrate this and to help users out with the discovery aspect as well" }, { "start": 264, "end": 268, "text": " by making sure that from a metadata standpoint, we have this complete set of metadata," }, { "start": 268, "end": 275, "text": " and for modeling this metadata to various user experiences, which help users break down the barriers" }, { "start": 275, "end": 278, "text": " between what you can watch on live TV and what you can stream." }, { "start": 278, "end": 282, "text": " So we're outlining the challenges that need to be solved." }, { "start": 282, "end": 286, "text": " And the question I've always had since LG purchased WebOS was," }, { "start": 286, "end": 289, "text": " why do you need WebOS to solve these problems?" }, { "start": 289, "end": 293, "text": " Because every TV manufacturer here knows these challenges, right?" }, { "start": 293, "end": 297, "text": " There's discovery, there's so much content now, there's so many sources of the content," }, { "start": 297, "end": 300, "text": " the content's different, like Netflix and Hulu have different things," }, { "start": 300, "end": 303, "text": " then there's the cable box and there's DVR you can't even talk to." }, { "start": 303, "end": 305, "text": " But what is it about WebOS that makes it different?" }, { "start": 305, "end": 306, "text": " So we said one thing was it's about switching." }, { "start": 306, "end": 309, "text": " Switching is super cool, and you can see that we're sub one second right now." }, { "start": 309, "end": 314, "text": " You can switch between things, and that's great, and it feels great, and it feels right." }, { "start": 314, "end": 320, "text": " But WebOS is a philosophy more than anything else." }, { "start": 320, "end": 324, "text": " It is an operating system, but it's a feeling." }, { "start": 324, "end": 326, "text": " It's mostly a thought." }, { "start": 326, "end": 328, "text": " You know what I mean." }, { "start": 328, "end": 332, "text": " Well, actually, when people think of WebOS, they think of that card interface, right?" }, { "start": 332, "end": 335, "text": " So translating that is weird." }, { "start": 335, "end": 340, "text": " I mean, on TV, it's not about apps. It's about content." }, { "start": 340, "end": 346, "text": " And what we as LG want to make sure is that content is available to everybody," }, { "start": 346, "end": 347, "text": " not in closed gardens." }, { "start": 347, "end": 350, "text": " Closed gardens, I buy it here, I can't watch it there." }, { "start": 350, "end": 353, "text": " I want everything to be available on the web all the time." }, { "start": 353, "end": 356, "text": " And in that respect, WebOS is the best thing for that." }, { "start": 356, "end": 358, "text": " We want everybody to build HTML5 apps." }, { "start": 358, "end": 363, "text": " We want to make sure that HTML is a first-class citizen in all the devices." }, { "start": 363, "end": 368, "text": " And once all our partners build things for the web, they're available everywhere." }, { "start": 368, "end": 373, "text": " And that's the right path for this industry, and that's what LG wanted to do." }, { "start": 373, "end": 381, "text": " They really wanted to make sure that they have the ability to continue innovating as a hardware-based company" }, { "start": 381, "end": 386, "text": " and making sure that software and the web are available for everybody." }, { "start": 386, "end": 388, "text": " That way, you push content to everybody." }, { "start": 388, "end": 389, "text": " Here's a really weird question." }, { "start": 389, "end": 391, "text": " Do you have a browser on this TV?" }, { "start": 391, "end": 392, "text": " Yep." }, { "start": 392, "end": 393, "text": " A web browser?" }, { "start": 393, "end": 397, "text": " So that has never, as far as I can tell, that has never truly worked on a television, right?" }, { "start": 397, "end": 401, "text": " It's almost like you have a browser because you're betting so big on HTML5" }, { "start": 401, "end": 404, "text": " that you can just have one because it's going to be there, right?" }, { "start": 404, "end": 407, "text": " What is it about the browser on the television that's never worked?" }, { "start": 407, "end": 410, "text": " But then, what is it about HTML5 that works so well?" }, { "start": 410, "end": 416, "text": " It's a strange question because Google bets so big on the browser with Google TV, right?" }, { "start": 416, "end": 420, "text": " It fell down completely for them because nobody wants a browser on their TV." }, { "start": 420, "end": 424, "text": " But I see the bet on HTML5 as an app platform for television as being really smart." }, { "start": 424, "end": 425, "text": " I can't quite figure out why." }, { "start": 425, "end": 427, "text": " Do you guys think about this stuff?" }, { "start": 427, "end": 428, "text": " Yeah." }, { "start": 428, "end": 431, "text": " So I can start, and then Colin has some other thoughts." }, { "start": 431, "end": 435, "text": " So what's the usage scene here?" }, { "start": 435, "end": 440, "text": " So you come home, you click and then browse and CNN." }, { "start": 440, "end": 441, "text": " You don't want to go through the..." }, { "start": 441, "end": 443, "text": " It's not the same thing as a browser." }, { "start": 443, "end": 451, "text": " And we have browsers on TV today because there is some sort of segment of people that actually want to do that," }, { "start": 451, "end": 452, "text": " but it's not the core." }, { "start": 452, "end": 456, "text": " You'll see we're not promoting that." }, { "start": 456, "end": 459, "text": " The difference is that apps can be optimized for the TV," }, { "start": 459, "end": 465, "text": " and they can be placed at a different, so much more accessible place in the browser" }, { "start": 465, "end": 468, "text": " where you have to go and start typing and going through all that." }, { "start": 468, "end": 470, "text": " Essentially, WebOS is the browser." }, { "start": 470, "end": 471, "text": " That is the browser." }, { "start": 471, "end": 473, "text": " That is the chrome of a browser." }, { "start": 473, "end": 476, "text": " It allows you to switch between tabs, cards, call them whatever you want." }, { "start": 476, "end": 477, "text": " It's the same thing." }, {

Absolutely." }, { "start": 501, "end": 505, "text": " TV is still a cable box or a satellite box for most people, right?" }, { "start": 505, "end": 506, "text": " True." }, { "start": 506, "end": 507,

to me is the challenge of making a television you own," }, { "start": 514, "end": 518, "text": " is that somebody else owns a big chunk of it and you have no way to get at it." }, { "start": 518, "end": 521, "text": " How do you fight that with something like WebOS," }, { "start": 521, "end": 522, "text": " which is..." }, { "start": 522, "end": 524, "text": " You basically bolted a smartphone to the back of a TV" }, { "start": 524, "end": 527, "text": " and made it run a world-class mobile operating system." }, { "start": 527, "end": 529, "text": " That's effectively what you've done, right?" }, { "start": 529, "end": 531, "text": " No, I think that we've actually done something very different from that." }, { "start": 531, "end": 532, "text": " Really?" }, { "start": 532, "end": 533, "text": " Yeah." }, { "start": 533, "end": 537, "text": " We've actually figured out what the right experiences on the TV powered by this mobile operating system," }, { "start": 537, "end": 539,

554, "end": 556, "text": " and we have some ways to control the cable box." }, { "start": 556, "end": 558, "text": " But I do think, as we've seen, for example," }, { "start": 558, "end": 561, "text": " Reed Hastings' announcement in our LG Press conference," }, { "start": 561, "end": 566, "text": " that 4K content now is available as the first pipe to the Internet." }, { "start": 566, "end": 571,

584, "text": " We think people like whatever has content." }, { "start": 584, "end": 587, "text": " So right now, it comes from their great service from the cable companies." }, { "start": 587, "end":

that..." }, { "start": 598, "end": 599, "text": " Absolutely." }, { "start": 599, "end": 601, "text": " Because they announce it first, so you never know." }, { "start": 601, "end": 604, "text": " At CES, it's always like when a partner announces something first" }, { "start": 604, "end": 606, "text": " and then you make the big announcement, it's always like," }, { "start": 606, "end": 607,

using HTML to make apps for TV seems to make really good sense," }, { "start": 614, "end": 616, "text": " and you guys have got a really nice interface," }, { "start": 616, "end": 619, "text": " and we've already tried to talk about the challenge" }, { "start": 619, "end": 621, "text": " of the horrible interface from the cable box." }, { "start": 621, "end": 623, "text": " But one of the other problems with smart TVs" }, { "start": 623, "end": 626, "text": " is everybody's making their own apps in HTML5 or wherever," }, { "start": 626, "end": 628, "text": " and they look and feel very different," }, { "start": 628, "end": 630, "text": " and you kind of lose your way to navigate it." }, { "start": 630, "end": 633, "text": " And is this going to pop over?

lock down UI elements you're going to have?" }, { "start": 661, "end": 667, "text": " You know a lot about NEO and our heritage there," }, { "start": 667, "end": 669, "text": " and we're continuing and taking that forward." }, { "start": 669, "end": 671, "text": " It's not locked down." }, { "start": 671, "end": 674, "text": " So you're not going to provide UI parameters to people?" }, { "start": 674, "end": 676, "text": " No, we are." }, { "start": 676, "end": 679, "text": " But I think it's really more about education." }, { "start": 679, "end": 682, "text": " So if you take a page from history and you look at the mobile web," }, { "start": 682, "end": 685, "text": " the mobile web kind of had different kinds of design patterns and all," }, { "start": 685, "end": 689, "text": "

693, "text": " The back idea." }, { "start": 693, "end": 695, "text": " Yeah, the idea of back and stuff like that." }, { "start": 695, "end": 697, "text": " And I think that's what we're trying to do here," }, { "start": 697, "end": 699, "text": " which is we're not here to enforce something." }, { "start": 699, "end": 701, "text": " We really respect openness and we believe in it." }, { "start":

"text": " I'll give you an example." }, { "start": 706, "end": 708, "text": " So a lot of what we're seeing is people do," }, { "start": 708, "end": 711, "text": " they translate their interface from a tablet." }, { "start": 711, "end": 714, "text": " So they put some options here, you click an option," }, { "start": 714, "end": 715, "text": " you click something else," }, { "start": 715, "end": 719, "text": " and then you get finally to some piece of content and you click it" }, { "start": 719, "end": 720, "text": " and then it plays." }, { "start": 720, "end": 723, "text": " Then if you want to bring up the UI, you take away the content," }, { "start": 723, "end": 726, "text": " and again, it puts it full screen." }, { "start": 726, "end": 727, "text": " It's probably not the right way to go." }, { "start": 727, "end": 730, "text": " So we're really trying to explain to people, okay," }, { "start": 730, "end": 732, "text": " you can actually have the content running in the
