GENERAL INFORMATION

Special features of your
television set
You can receive and watch digital TV chan-
7
nels using your television set (via DVB-S, DVB-T
and DVB-C) – including High Definition pro-
grammes (HD). However, the reception of digi-
tal TV channels in HD is currently limited to a
few countries in Europe.
Although this television set complies with the
7
current DVB-S, DVB-T and DVB-C standards
(status: August 2010), the compatibility with
future DVB-S satellite transmissions as well
as terrestrial DVB-T and DVB-C cable pro-
grammes cannot be guaranteed.
Your television set can receive and process
7
all analogue and non-encrypted digital
TV channels. The television set is also equipped
with digital and analogue receivers.
The electronic TV guide (for digital channels
7
only) informs you about any schedule changes
at short notice, and provides an overview of
all the broadcasters' schedules for the next few
days. Detailed information on the individual
television programmes are – when provided
by the broadcasting station – are also avail-
able in the electronic TV guide.
You can connect various data media, such as
7
an external hard drive, a USB memory stick or
a digital camera, to the USB socket. Using the
file browser, you can then select and play the
file formats of your choice (for example, MP4,
MP3 or JPEG data).

Receiving digital channels

You require a satellite antenna to receive
7
digital satellite channels (DVB-S).
Your TV supports SCR system (Satellite Chan-
nel Router). If your antenna installation is
equipped with an Single Cable Distribution
multiswitch, all television sets which are con-
nected on this antenna can receive the televi-
sion channels stand-alone.
You require a digital roof antenna or indoor
7
antenna (passive or active indoor antenna
with its own power supply) to receive digital
television channels (DVB-T).
If you wish to receive digital television chan-
7
nels via your cable system (DVB-C), the an-
tenna cable for your cable operator must be
connected to the television set.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every
7
channel has its own transmission frequency.
Instead, several channels are grouped into
what are known as bouquets on a regional or
national level. You can find the current trans-
mission information on teletext from various
broadcasters, or by consulting a current TV
guide or the Internet.
Various digital television channels from private
7
broadcasters are encrypted (DVB-S, DVB-T
and DVB-C). Watching these channels and
the recording and playback functions are only
possible with the appropriate CI module and
a SmartCard. Ask your specialist dealer.
The range of channels available from the pub-
lic broadcasting institutions (ARD with EinsEx-
tra, EinsFestival or ZDF with ZDF Info and all
third party broadcasters) are not encrypted
and can be received without a SmartCard.
