Digital Switchover for Terrestrial broadcasts
Starting in late 2007 and ending in 2012, TV services in the UK will go completely
digital, TV region by TV region.
If you have any questions, please call Digital UK on
08456 50 50 50
or visit
www.digitaluk.co.uk
Digital Switchover will cover a period of several weeks. When it starts you will lose all
Analogue TV programmes and some Digital TV programmes will be missing.
You will need to retune your TV each time this happens to recover your digital
programmes.

Users of cable or satellite boxes should still retune the TV to continue to receive
Freeview services via their aerial. (Your Analogue programme for viewing Cable or

Due to the digital reception technologies involved, quality of the digital signals may be relatively low in some
cases, despite good reception of analogue programmes.

How to use
In all cases, it is possible to navigate the pages using buttons on the
remote control, but because the commands available must apply to all
manufacturers of digital equipment, some on screen commands may
not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.

When “”, “”, “”, “” symbol is displayed
When “back key” is displayed

Digital teletext (MHEG)
Digital teletext services
Digital teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext.
When you switch to a digital teletext service, the images you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and
controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.

Select freesat or DVB
p. 12

The availability of teletext services for a programme is indicated by “TXT” in the information banner.
Note
As soon as you switch to a digital programme with links to a teletext service,
software is downloaded in the background to enable the teletext function.
This means that when switching to a digital programme, you should wait for
approximately 5 seconds before pressing the TEXT button - this will allow
the software to download. If you press the TEXT button before download is
complete, there will be a short delay before the text screen is displayed.
While navigating digital teletext, you will nd there is a short delay when
moving between pages while the page downloads. There is often a prompt
shown somewhere on the page (for example “Loading”) to let you know that
this is happening.
