A Guide to Digital TV

• What is Digital Television?Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set.Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surroundaudio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the sameTV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digitalbroadcast.

Digital Television Services

• Digital Picture Quality DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television(SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).

• SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video.480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480pformat offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreenand are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.

• HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p).Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality thanSDTV.

• Dolby Surround SoundWith DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 toDolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now

broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

Q&A

1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works wellwith many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different thananalog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.

If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antennamay work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHFand UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts.

You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet

web sites such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close yourlocation is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TVreceivers to produce high-quality images and sound.

Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audiodata is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast.This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchyaudio.

3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment,condominium, or apartment?The Federal Communications Commission’s OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations toput up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are notlocated in common areas and are no more than 12’ in height.

Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to useindoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complexcan provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.

4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?

Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currentlyincompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor orindoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.

The good news is that you won’t have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTVand HDTV programs. They’re free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All youneed is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images andhigh-quality audio.

To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxialcables (which you can buy from your Samsung dealer or any electronics store).

1Find and disconnect thecable that is connected tothe ANTENNA IN terminalof your Splitter.This terminal might belabeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”or simply, “IN”. Connect thiscable to a two-way splitter.

2Connect a coaxial cablebetween an OUT terminalof the splitter and the INterminal of the Cable box.

RF (A/B) switch.

4Connect another cablebetween the other OUTterminal on the splitter andthe A–IN terminal on theRF (A/B) switch.

5Connect the last coaxialcable between the OUTterminal of the RF (A/B)switch and the ANT 1 IN(CABLE) on the TV.

After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing.Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switchto “B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable box's output channel, which is usuallychannel 3 or 4.)

2 Press the … or † button to select“Signal Strength”, then press theENTER button.

If the signal strength meter indicatesthat the signal is weak, physicallyadjust your antenna to increase thesignal strength. Continue to adjustthe antenna until you find the bestposition with the strongest signal.

Select “Return” by pressing the … or † button, then press theENTER button to return to the previous menu.
