Bristol, England (PRWEB) October 6, 2007 -- Ocean Blue Software, the specialist digital TV software developer, has won a contract to integrate its Voyager MHEG-5 software into the next generation of TVs from Sharp.

It will also be High Definition ready and support both 50Hz and 100Hz displays with the latest motion compensation technology for a smooth, judder-free viewing experience.
