Preferred term

digital television  

Definition

  • Digital television (DTV) enables television to offer consumers better picture and sound quality, expanded programming choices (such as multiple channels of programs at a time), and enhanced closed captioning and interactive video options. By the early 2000s, digital television was having a growing impact on traditional television journalism by expanding the types of programming through multiplexing, changing how journalists appear on camera by modifying makeup techniques and improving news sets to hide imperfections, and modifying traditional camera angles and lighting techniques to hide flaws due to digital clarity.
