Digital sub-channels

A digital TV signal transmits more data than an analog signal. This increase in data provides a better picture and sound with less static and interference. The increased data capacity also lets broadcasters fit several channels into the same bandwidth as an analog signal. Broadcasters may use these sub-channels to transmit a variety of information, such as weather forecasts, foreign languages, and commercials. A digital sub-channel is indicated by the main channel number, followed by a dot, then the sub-channel number. For example, 5.1 indicates sub-channel 1 of main channel 5.

Adjusting the volume

Press VOL+ or VOL– to increase or decrease the volume. A bar indicator and volume number shows you the change.
