HD Suisse joins Hotbird 8
Switzerland’s public broadcaster has launched its high-definition version on Eutelsat’s Hotbird 8 satellite.
Broadcast as part of SRG SSR’s digital platform, channel HD Suisse is available on DTH and by cable. The satellite signal is encrypted in Viaccess, with reception restricted to Switzerland.
Launched by SRG SSR’s idée suisse, HD suisse is a 24-hour channel broadcasting films, concerts, operas, documentaries, series and children’s programmes in the country’s four national languages.
Priority is given to HD coverage of live events, mostly sport, with upcoming highlights to include live coverage of the Uefa Euro 2008 football tournament in June.
HD suisse broadcasts in-house and co-productions from SRG SSR’s four broadcasters, TSR, SF, TSI and TvR, with international HD content completing the mix. HD Suisse viewers need an HDTV receiver and an HD Ready display to watch the channel.
The channel gives Switzerland’s public broadcaster a showcase for premium content, and a platform to prepare for production of all programmes in HD. From 2012, SRG SSR plans to broadcast all seven national channels in HD.
