[QUOTE="Cliff Cargeege, post: 22105, member: 577"] The requirement for a TV / display to be "HD Ready" is the following: 1) Display minimum of 720 lines vertically 2) Wide Screen format 3) Digital Input - HDMi, DVI etc 4) Component Video input - Scart or 3 RCA Interestingly France has just banned manufacturers from using the HD Ready logo on products that dont have an integrated MPEG4 Digital tuner. In terms of SA The DMO (digital migration office) and DOC (department of communication) were meant to release the digital broadcast white paper last year alreay. However this has still not happened. The SABC has said that they aim to have their first DVBT (digital broadcast) service running by Nov 2008, with full analogue switch off happening in 2011. At present it looks like SA will adopt the H264 Mpeg4 format that France are using, however still no confirmation on this. I believe there are plans to free issue 1 million+ digital receiver set-top boxes prior to switching off the analogue service. [/QUOTE]
