A 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 audio, 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).

SDTVprogram 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 (1080i) 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 digital 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 DD 5.1 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 VHF (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 transmission 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-top 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 settop 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 cable TV. All you need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Connections

Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas

If your antenna has a set of leads that look like this, see “Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin

Leads” below.

If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see “Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads”.

If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and UHF Antennas”.

Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin Leads

If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or “rabbit ears”) that has 300 Ω twin flat leads, follow the directions below.

1 Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on a 300-75 Ω adapter (not supplied). Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.

2 Plug the adaptor into the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the side of the TV.

Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads

1 Plug the antenna lead into the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the side of the TV.

Separate VHF and UHF Antennas

If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).

1 Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.

2 Plug the combiner into the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the bottom of the side panel.

Connecting a DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (Set-Top Box) via HDMI

HDMI offers the best video quality. This connection can only be made if there is an HDMI Output jack on the external device.

1Connect an HDMI Cable between the HDMI IN 1 (or HDMI IN 2 ) on the TV and the HDMI OUT jack on the DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (Set-Top Box).

What is HDMI?

TV Rear Panel

DVD Player/Set-Top Box

1 HDMI Cable(Not supplied)

HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, enables the transmission of the digital audio and video signals using a single cable.

“Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of digital audio (5.1 channels). The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi-channel digital audio.

Each DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (Set-Top Box) has a different back panel configuration.

When connecting a DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (Set-Top Box), match the color of the connection terminal to the cable.

When connecting via HDMI, you do not need to connect Audio Cables. You only need to connect Audio cables when connecting via HDMI/DVI.

The TV may not output sound when DVD Players/Cable Boxes/Satellite receivers that support older HDMI versions than 1.3 are connected. If you connect an older version HDMI cable and do not hear sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI3/DVI IN jack and audio cables to DVI IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on TV’s back panel.

HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.

Connecting a DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (Set-Top Box) via DVI

This connection can only be made if there is a DVI Output jack on the external device.

1Connect a HDMI/DVI Cable or DVI-HDMI Adapter between the HDMI3/DVI IN jack on the TV and the DVI OUT jack on the DVD Player/Cable/Satellite Box (SetTop Box).

When a Digital Audio System is connected to the DIGITAL

AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) terminal: Decrease the volume of the TV, and adjust the volume level with the audio system’s volume control.

TV Rear Panel

Digital Audio System

1 Optical Cable (Not supplied)

Each Digital Audio System has a different back panel configuration.

5.1CH audio is possible when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1CH.

What is OPTICAL?

Converts the electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits it through glass fibers. S/PDIF is a transmission system of digital audio in the form of a light wave that uses a glass conductor.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) RF (Digital/Analog), AV, S-Video Sound is output

When a DVD player or Cable/Satellite box is connected to the COMPONENT or HDMI IN jacks on the TV, the Optical jack outputs 2.1 channel audio only. If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITALAUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the player or box directly to the Digital Audio System, not the TV.

● Some cable boxes and satellite receivers have their own set of screen sizes, which may differ from the ones above.

Only 16:9 and 4:3 are available in DTV, Component (720p, 1080i) and HDMI (720p, 1080i) modes.

In COMPONENT(720p, 1080i) or HDMI(720p, 1080i) mode, 16:9, 4:3 and Wide Fit can be selected.

You can select the 16:9, 4:3, Wide Fit and Just Scan screen sizes in the Component (1080i, 1080p), HDMI (1080i, 1080p), or DTV (1080i, 1080p) mode.

Each adjusted setting will be stored separately according to its input mode.

When watching an HD(High Definition 720p,1080i,1080p) signal, you can use Wide Fit. Wide Fit sets the optimum picture format by expanding it both horizontally and vertically.

For example, you can reset the picture in 4:3 format to 16:9. Wide Fit does not support all external devices (DVD, VCR etc.).
