Something I read in that ultimate reference to Digital TV (Zoo Magazine).
It's talking about the Sony Bravia W4000 TV, and it states blah blah to the effect that when 'Terrestrial TV pulls its finger out and starts transmitting HD' this amazing TV will be able to cope 'seamlessly' Anyone know if this is true??!? -- Regards, Chris. (Remove Elvis's shoes to email me) |

No it's not true for terrestrial broadcasts in the UK - see the spec that Sony released last week: http://www.sony.co.uk/view/ShowProdu...Sony+BRAVIA+TV According to Ofcom, the first STB/receivers capable of decoding the DVB-T2 HD transmission standard to be used in the UK are unlikely to appear before the end of 2009. UK HD terrestrial transmissions are expected to begin late next year, starting with the Granada region after their digital switchover. |
