You can receive and watch digital TV channels 

using your television set (via DVB-T and DVB-C) 

– including High Definition programmes (HD). 

However, the reception of digital TV channels 

in HD is currently limited to a few countries in 

Europe.

7  

Although this television set complies with the 

current  DVB-T  and  DVB-C  standards  (status: 

August 2010), the compatibility with  future ter-

restrial DVB-T and DVB-C cable programmes 

cannot be guaranteed.

7  

Your  television  set  can  receive  and  process  

all  analogue  and  non-encrypted  digital 

TV channels. The television set is also equipped 

with digital and analogue receivers. 

7  

The electronic TV guide (for digital channels 

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.

7  

You can connect various data media, such as 

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).

GENERAL­INFORMATION

­---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7  

Using the time shift function, you can quickly 

and easily pause a programme using the re-

mote control and resume it at a later stage. 

The  programme  is  recorded  in  an  external 

data medium.

7  

You can record any digital TV channels you 

choose.

 

  

The TV channels are converted by the televi-

sion and saved on an external data medium 

which is connected to the USB socket.

 

  

The saved programmes can be called up and 

played from the archive on the external data 

medium at any time.

 

  

You  can  also  play  a  programme  from  the 

archive while recording another.

TV programmes can be found on page  24.
