High Definition Television HDTV

What is HDTV?

High Definition Television (HDTV) is an improved resolution viewing standard compared with Standard Definition Television (SDTV). Put simply, there are many more pixels with HDTV providing a clearer and cleaner image.

It is important to note that HDTV and Digital TV do not refer to the same concept. Although HDTV is available for Digital TV, digital signals can be high definition or standard definition.

Although HDTV has been around for a while and was available through analogue signals, digital signals have allowed HDTV to grow in popularity

Advantages of HDTV

Viewing your favorite shows and channels in high definition allows you to create a TV experience like never before. Compared to standard definition, HDTV provides images with sharper colours, smoother motion, and richer details.

The Future

It is likely that at some point in the future all broadcasts will be high definition, although a formal date is not set in the UK. However, once the formal switch from analogue to digital signals is completed there will be even more opportunities for HDTV technology to expand .

Viewing Requirements

To get the most out of HDTV you require an “HD-ready” television, which are becoming very common in stores. Another option is to purchase an HDTV box ) that upgrades your HD-Compatible television to receive HDTV channels.

High Definition Beyond the Television Channels

Although it is very commonly thought of in conjunction with television channels, high definition is expanding to other areas of entertainment as well. For example, Video Games, HD-DVDs and Blu-ray discs provide movie-watchers with the same amazing advantages offered by HDTV.
