Spanish public broadcaster RTVE will launch two HD versions of its international satellite channels TVE International and Canal 24 Horas on satellite on January 15.
The broadcaster has also applied for a license to transmit the channels on the nation’s digital terrestrial network, but no firm decision has been made.
All Spanish broadcasters are required to turn to HD on the DTT platform by January 1, 2023. At the moment, some channels are simulcast in SD and HD, but some are still only available iN SD.
