The technology used to distribute the Hungarian pay-DTT platform MinDig TV Extra will change from March 3.
According to its operator Antenna Hungária, the transition to DVB-T2 will take place in 10 steps between March and August, with the first phase affecting subscribers in the north east and east of the country.
The latter will see a full or partial shutdown from 07.00 to 19.00 on March 3, after which they will be required to use new receivers supplied by Antenna Hungária to receive the service.
As previously reported by Broadband TV News, Antenna Hungária was due to perform frequency swaps at all 91 digital terrestrial sites on February 4.
It first outlined its future DTT plans last November, having earlier seen its licence to operate Hungary’s terrestrial network renewed for a further 12 years.
