Digital TV
Hong Kong will soon enter into the Digital era. Viewers will enjoy better television reception, clearer pictures, better sound quality etc. The new technology also enables new applications such as high-definition TV (HDTV) and interactive TV services. In order to enjoy all these benefits, viewers have to equip themselves with the necessary devices (e.g., upgrading their antennae system, purchase of set-top boxes or integrated TV sets etc). It is anticipated that Digital TV broadcasting will replace the existing analogue TV broadcasting eventually. For details, please refer to the Government's website http://www.digitaltv.gov.hk/. |
