Digital Tv Group Dtg

To make digital TV work in the UK today and into the future, you need all the right people around the table. The Digital TV Group is uniquely positioned to make that happen. Our members come from all the key sectors of digital TV. And for over two decades they have collaborated with our technical experts to create the best experience for viewers across the UK. The DTG is the UK’s unique, self-funding centre for innovation in digital media technology. Since 1995, it has been central to the distribution of TV in the UK – digital TV, interactive TV, the digital TV switchover, on-demand TV, HDTV and UHD TV. The DTG underpins the free-to-air platforms Freeview, Freesat and YouView, and supports the development of pay-TV and other platforms. We’re now working towards the future of television – embracing the convergence of content and networks to efficiently deliver video to all screens, in all formats. Our members tell us that the thing they value most about the Digital TV Group is the unique opportunity it gives them to collaborate with their wider industry network. At our roundtables and working groups, members from all the key sectors in digital media technology work closely with our technical experts. We also host regular plugfests for testing and an annual summit that celebrates landmarks in progress and looks ahead at what’s next. The DTG isn’t just a centre of innovation for UK digital TV. DTG Testing is a vital resource for the TV and IP industries and a trusted partner to the regulators. The team works daily to maintain standards across digital TV platforms so retailers and broadcasters know they are working with certified manufacturers and devices they can trust. Each year our technical experts produce real-world test reports, white papers, best practice guidelines and the d-Book, the definitive list of specifications for UK digital TV. The Zoo at DTG Testing is the UK’s only comprehensive testing and accreditation centre for digital TV devices and services.
