The DTC Digital TV Transition Group
The DTC Digital TV Transition Group provides planning, education, research, and technical design of analog to digital TV transitions for governments, broadcasters and other DTV stakeholders around the world. Our team of experts has worked in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, the Caribbean and North America to aid countries in completing complicated transitions.
Every member of the team has been directly involved in analog to digital terrestrial TV transitions around the world by evaluating technical standards and specifications, overseeing transmission infrastructure installations, helping government agencies and retailers with consumer receiver procurement, managing government programs for receiver distribution, and assisting consumers through the transition.
The Transition Group’s experience ranges from involvement in managing the world’s largest analog TV shut-off to advising the government and local broadcasters of an island nation with 142,000 residents.
Because no two transitions are alike, the DTV Transition Group responds to the unique culture, economics, and goals to tailor a DTV Transition to specific country conditions. We take a holistic approach to a transition, having assembled a team with expertise in government relations, retailer and consumer education, market conditions and equipment suppliers, and technology. A Transition is not about moving from one technology to another. It is about transforming an entire communications system to improve communications for citizens and governments.
The DTC Digital TV Transition Group’s only agenda is to help countries make the entire transition in a smooth, timely, and cost-effective manner. The Transition Group has no allegiance to any one transmission standard, technology, or manufacturer, and we fully understand how high the stakes are when planning and implementing an analog TV shut-off.
