 Guide to Digital TV

What is Digital Television?

Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set.
Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround
oudio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same

TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital

broadcast.

Digital Television Services

Digital Picture Quality

DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television
(SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).

SDTV

program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video.
480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p
format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen
and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.

HDTV

program formats include 1080-line Interlaced (10801) and 720-line progressive (720p).
Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than
SDTV.

Dolby Surround Sound

With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digitol audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to

Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now
broadcast with DD5.1 soundtracks.

Q&A

1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?

Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well
with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than
analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHP (channels
2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.

If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna

may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF

and UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts.
You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet

web sites such as www.titantv.com,www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.

2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your

location is to the tronsmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV
receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.

Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio
data is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast.
This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy
audio.

3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment,

condominium, or apartment?

The Federal Communications Commission's OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of

1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to
put up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not
located in common areas and are no more than 12' in height.

Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use

indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex

can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.

4. Can I connect my DTV set-fop receiver to my cable TV service?

Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently

incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or
indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.

The good news is that you won't have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV
and HDTV programs. They're free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium coble TV. All you

need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and
high-quality audio.

There are many types of digital audio systems on the market today.
A simplified illustration of an audio system is shown below.

For more information, see your audio system owner's manuol.

If your audio system has an
optical digital audio input,
connect to the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack

NOTES

• OPTICAL: converts the electric
signal into an optical light
signal, and transmits it through
glass fibers.

• When a Digital audio system is
connected to the Digital Audio
Out (Optical) terminal:
Decrease the gain (volume) of
the TV, and adjust the volume
level with the audio system's

Checking the Digital-Signal Strength I Digital

Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from "snowy" to clear, digital (HDTV)
channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog
channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel.
You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.
