Digital Switchover

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.

•

To retune your TV “Auto Setup” in “Tuning Menu” (p. 32 and p. 33)

Cable or Satellite users should still retune the TV to continue to receive Freeview

services via their aerial. (Your Analogue programme for viewing Cable or Satellite

services will change to a new position.)

•

Due to the digital reception technologies involved, quality of the DTV 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 DVB equipment, some on screen commands may

not correspond exactly to the remote control buttons.

For example:

•

When “select” or “go” is displayed

•

When “”, “”, “”, “” symbol is displayed

•

When the key words are displayed on colour bar

You can enjoy news, weather forecasts and subtitles, etc. (depending on the broadcaster)

Note

•

As soon as you switch to a DVB 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 DVB 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 DVB 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.

DVB teletext services

DVB teletext services differ greatly from analogue teletext.

When you switch to a DVB teletext service, the images

you see can contain graphics and text, laid out and

controlled in a manner decided by the broadcaster.
