Why Digital TV? Digital Television is the TV of the future. Building on your existing five channels, digital television offers many extra free channels including BBC Choice, ITV2, BBC Knowledge and BBC News 24, with others on the way.
Digital terrestrial television (DTT) is a robust, all-digital system, unlike the current analogue PAL TV system. For the first time, studio quality television can be viewed on your desktop.
WinTV-NOVA, your Personal Digital VCR: WinTV-NOVA can record your digital TV programs to disk. And with WinTV Scheduler, you can schedule your TV recordings. Recorded programmes take approximately 1.6GB of hard disk space per hour.
You can also burn your TV recordings onto a CD or DVD-ROM. A CD-ROM will hold about 30 minutes of digital TV, while a recordable DVD will store about 2 1/2 hours of digital TV.
Note: we recommend a rooftop aerial to receive digital terrestrial television.
