What is High Deffination TV?


Answers: What is High Definition television?

High Definition Television (HDTV) is a new way to watch television. HDTV displays a picture with 5 times the clarity of traditional TV along with Dolby digital sound. The pictures are sharper, wider, and free of interference. An HDTV picture closely resembles what you see in movie theaters. The sound can be better than CD quality and can be in Surround Sound for a real home theater experience. HDTV is the best possible form of digital television. HDTV can deliver sharper pictures than you can get from a regular DVD.
What is the difference between Digital TV and HDTV?

Digital TV (DTV) describes the method television stations use to transmit (send) pictures to your home.

HDTV describes a picture as being in High Definition (a very clear picture).

Just because someone is transmitting a digital signal does not mean that the picture you see is in High Definition. It could be an SDTV (Standard Definition TV) picture. This holds true for “digital cable” and “digital satellite”. “Digital” is the method used to get the picture to your set. “HDTV” is one of several different quality pictures that can be broadcast by a digital television station.



What is the difference between High Definition and Standard Definition?
Standard Definition TV (SDTV) is a term used to define any picture that is not true High Definition TV. SDTV could be an analog picture converted to digital, or it could be a “low resolution” digital picture. The picture from a normal DVD is SDTV; it isn’t even close to true HDTV. The traditional “analog” picture is made up of 480 active picture lines. High definition TV scans more than twice as many lines, delivering a vivid display with incredible detail.
High-definition television (HDTV) is a television broadcasting system with a significantly higher resolution than traditional formats (NTSC, SECAM, PAL) allow.
