How to View Digital Television
There are three ways to watch DTV The first is to use an integrated digital TV; one with
a blJilt-in digital television timer. The second is to connect an external DTV set-top
receiver to a DTVlready television or monitor. This type of TV or monitor will have
wideband component video and stereo andio inpnts. Yon can also watch DTV signals
with personal complltei" (PC) tllner cards and complltei" monitors.
1. Integrated TVs versus DTV-ready TVs and monitors
The advantage of an integrated DTV set is that it can time both analog and digital TV
channels at the same time. All yon'll need to do is add an external antenna and yon are
ready to watch DTV
However, integrated DTV sets are not as common as DTVhready TVs and monitors.
If yon already own a DTV-ready TV with comt3onent video inputs, you can eI_joy DTV
broadcasts by simply adding a low-cost DTV set-top receiver and antenna.
2. Using a personal computer and monitor
There are phlg-in cards available that will receive and display DTV broadcasts on yollr
cornplltei" monitor. In addition, many complltei" monitors will display one or more of
the DTV program formats directly< The most compatible format is 480p, which is similar
to the VGA (640x480 pixel) compnter display standard. Yon may be able to watch DTV
broadcasts by connecting a completer monitor to the 15-pin jack on the rear of the set-
top DTV receiver.
