How to set up channels on a Samsung Home RU TV?

Advantages of digital television

Compared to analog television, digital technology benefits from a longer list of advantages, significantly expanding the capabilities of TV users. The main advantages of digital television:

• improved sound and picture quality;
• expansion of the number of channels in the same range;
• the ability to record television programs and create archives;
• no need for powerful transmitters;
• choice of broadcast language and subtitles;
• the ability to add a radio to the multiplex;
• ability to receive EPG signals.

Digital television has very few disadvantages:

• During a thunderstorm and other adverse weather conditions, the signal may be poorly transmitted;
• if the signal weakens (often this depends on the choice of antenna), individual fragments of the image or the entire picture as a whole partially freeze.

What you need to connect digital television - necessary equipment

To watch digital channels, you need to buy a TV that supports DVB-T2, or buy additional equipment for a regular device. You will need a high-quality cable, a digital television receiver and an antenna capable of operating in the UHF range.

Choosing an antenna

Any home antenna can receive a digital signal. For residents of high-rise buildings, the best option would be to install a common antenna (CETV) for the entire house.

For private sector residents there are the following options:

• a satellite antenna for signal reception is a reliable option that works regardless of the proximity of the tower, terrain and weather conditions;
• internal antenna - a standard model, suitable if the television tower is located close to it;
• standard outdoor antenna - if the signal is not too strong, the TV tower is located far away or the terrain makes it difficult to receive the signal;
• cable television – expands the package of available channels;
• IPTV – makes it possible to simultaneously use all the advantages of digital television in combination with Internet access.

TV

An antenna alone is not enough - the TV must be able to receive a digital signal. For owners of modern equipment that was released over the past 3 years, there is no need to purchase additional equipment. Manufacturers have provided the ability to connect digital television without using a set-top box/receiver, so modern models come with built-in equipment for receiving such a signal.

When purchasing a new TV, you need to make sure that the model you choose supports digital standards. The specifications must include DVB-T2.

Console

If you are using a TV that does not support DVB-T2, you must additionally purchase a receiver - a set-top box that connects to the TV and allows you to receive a digital signal. The assortment of TV equipment stores includes set-top boxes that differ in their functionality:

For older TVs that only have an antenna input, you can use receivers with an RF modulator. Such set-top boxes are connected directly to the antenna input, and they are capable of operating in the UHF range.

If you select DVB-T and DVB-T2 during setup, the TV will simultaneously receive analogue terrestrial and digital channels.

Receiving digital television on a computer

It is possible to connect digital television on a PC or laptop, but for this you need to purchase additional equipment - a digital USB tuner. Connection and setup instructions:

1. Connect a selected digital tuner via the USB input.
2. Run the new device detection program.
3. Install software for the receiver to work correctly.
4. Wait for the channels to scan and start watching.

Connecting digital channels for viewing on a computer should only be done if the device meets the technical requirements set by the manufacturers of USB receivers.

Telephone tariffs

Landline telephone service is provided at two basic tariffs:

• “Unlimited” costs 190 rubles per month, subject to TV and Internet connection.
• “Time-based” is paid based on 20 kopecks per minute of call to landline phones, 190 rubles monthly together with TV and the Internet.

Subscribers are offered free caller ID. You can create a package of services that is beneficial for yourself by choosing preferential calls to your favorite region or country.

Errors and problems when connecting digital television

Digital technology is more complex, so it is not always possible to connect it the first time and get everything to work. There are a number of common mistakes when setting up digital television reception that you can deal with yourself.

Outdated receiver firmware

The receiver cannot operate without suitable software. If the firmware is outdated or was initially installed incorrectly, the following problems may occur:

• digital television setup error;
• some channels do not work;
• the TV does not receive the signal well;
• poor image quality.

To flash the receiver firmware, it is not necessary to take the device to a service center. If the set-top box included an installation disk with software, you need to connect via a USB cable and start installing the firmware.

If the kit does not include an installation disk, the problem can also be solved. Having basic skills in working with technology, you can reinstall the software yourself using this algorithm.

1. Find the official website of the manufacturer that released the console.
2. In the software section, find the model name of the receiver that needs to be flashed.
3. Download the archive with the software to your computer and unpack it into a separate folder.
4. Send the folder with the contents to a removable USB drive.
5. On the manufacturer's website, find step-by-step instructions for installing software for the selected model.
6. Connect the media to the set-top box and install.

Manufacturers offer firmware downloads completely free of charge. If it requires registration, payment or sending an SMS, it is most likely a scam site.

Antenna problems

If the antenna does not receive a signal the first time it is connected, there is no need to immediately run to the store and ask for it to be replaced. It is worth checking the following nuances:

• correct connection;
• frequency on the interactive map of CETV;
• serviceability of the cable and contacts.

If no problems are found, most likely the wrong antenna type was selected. If the antenna is not powerful enough to receive a high-quality signal, purchasing and installing an amplifier can help. You can also look for a more suitable type of receiving device.

If the problem cannot be solved on your own, you should contact a specialist. Perhaps the problem lies in the equipment that simply needs to be replaced or repaired under warranty.

Troubles at the TV station

In 80% of cases, problems with digital TV reception are caused by malfunctions in the user's equipment or errors made during the installation process. But there are situations when there is no point in looking for a breakdown or errors in the settings.

Since the complete transition to digital television has not yet occurred in all regions, failures often occur directly at the station. Prevention is also carried out periodically; during such periods, digital channels are also unavailable.

If there is a problem with the image or access to packet digital channels, but all equipment and settings are in order, you should call the provider’s hotline. Companies providing digital television connection services constantly inform about planned maintenance or other causes of failures, but in the event of unforeseen breakdowns, it is impossible to notify subscribers in advance.
