Yeap, spot on.
Same technology. When the channel switched to its off-air state, the pointer to where the MHEG app should auto-boot changed from the "Maybe show the red button and wait for Red/Text to be pressed" scene to the "This channel is offair" scene.
When the channel came back on air, it would switch back.
(From memory that pointer was the DSM-CC Service Gateway object, which kinda acted like a hard disk mount point, but in the virtual carousel filesystem... Heh, those are dusty memories!)
