Digital broadcasting is the most advanced format of broadcasting, employing a new technology for compression of audio and video signals which allows broadcasters to transmit digital signals using existing terrestrial systems.

Due to this dramatic progress, new features of broadcasting service such as widescreen formats and higher definition provide ways to experience the full benefits of digital transmission.

Digital broadcasting overcomes problems experienced with analog TV such as ghosting, “snowy” pictures and interference. Digital TV has a dramatic effect on these problems by its very nature.

In addition, the number of channels available has dramatically increased, so that you can make the best choice among the variety of programs anytime with a clear picture.

It is also possible to transmit multiple Standard Definition TV (SDTV*) programs within the same bandwidth. Some data capacity can also be allocated to provide more effective closed captioning or multiple language soundtracks.

Your current TV can be used for its entire service life. This STB (Set Top Box) will now make this possible.

Major Features of STB

•Capable of receiving digital (ATSC*) broadcasts

•Capable of receiving Standard Definition TV (SDTV*) broadcasts

ATSC - Advanced Television Systems Committee: This group is working to establish the standards for digital TV broadcasting and digital TV equipment for both SDTV and HDTV.

SDTV - Standard Definition Television: SDTV signal formats are 480p and 480i. SDTV provides lower resolution, yet presents a very sharp, clear picture. Lower resolution allows broadcasters to transmit multiple programs per channel.

•Alternative languages for OSD (English, Spanish and French)

•Sub-channels* through a single digital channel

Sub-Channel - The compression of audio and video signals enables each digital channel to carry different programs on sub-channels. Select them by simply pressing [CH / ] or the number buttons on your remote control when available.
