All about digital broadcasting

By 2012, Kenya would have shifted from analogue to digital broadcasting ahead of the 2015 global deadline.

Experts have , however, warned consumers to be on the look out for crooks, who could flood the market with fake digital products.

But just how do you tell genuine from fake products.
Digital TV broadcasting provides high picture resolution and allows multi-channel digital surround sound including Dolby Digital 5.1. A broadcaster can use its DTV signal to provide video and data services. It also enables several programme streams in one broadcast signal.

What does the shift mean?

Broadcasters will now focus on providing quality content and starting a (broadcast) station will not be as expensive as it is.
