White Paper V600

The use of SMIL in a product allows the user to create and transmit PowerPoint-style presentations on the mobile device. Using a media editor, users can incorporate text, audio, images, video clips and animations to assemble full multimedia presenta- tions. Apart from the media editor in the phone, multimedia presentations can be created in a media editor on a computer by using MMS Home Studio that can be found on the CD that comes with the phone. The user can decide in which order the image and text will be displayed, as well as for how long the images and text lines are to be shown on the display.

Media types

There are certain media formats that support continuous media (speech, audio and video). The following media types are supported for SMIL:

AMR narrow band speech codec MIME media typeMPEG-4 AAC audio codec MIME media typeMPEG-4 video codec MIME media typeH.263 video codec MIME media type

The media types for JPEG and GIF can be used both in the 'content-type' field in HTTP and in the “type” attribute in SMIL 2.0. The following media types are to be used:

All these media are pointed out by MIME (Multipur- pose Internet Mail Extensions) types.

Messaging

Messenger

The Messenger function offers more options when messaging. It is easy to create a list of favourite contacts from the Messenger server. It is possible to see which contacts are online and what mood they are in. To see contacts online, users have to be connected to the Messenger server. It is also possible to send and receive instant messages and join community chats.

Log in to the Messenger server

Users can select to log in to their Messenger server each time they want to send or receive instant messages, or they can be logged in automatically when they turn on their phone.

List of contacts

It is easy to create a list of contacts - people to send messages to on a regular basis. It is possible to add names from the Messenger server. You can also create nicknames for the contacts in a list that are connected to the Messenger server.

Status

Users can view the status of their contacts and choose to show their own status to others. They can also change their own status.

Chatroom

A chatroom can be started by a service provider or by an individual Messenger user. Chatrooms can be saved either by saving a chat invitation or by searching for a specific chatroom.

Strangers

A stranger is someone that is not in the list of con- tacts. An icon indicates a message from a stranger. Users can add a stranger to their list of contacts, or block a stranger. If they do not perform any actions, strangers disappear when the user logs out from the Messenger server.
