HDTV (High Definition Television) is already not a new name in china. Advertisements of HDTV ready Television appeared at all kinds of medias every day. T hey flaunt oneself can display the standard HDTV. Compatible television (plasma or LCD) “720P”(progressive Scan with 1280×720 pixels) or the “1080i” (interface d with 1920×1080 pixels). In fact, in Japan and South Korea these two countries that close to China have early transmitting HDTV programs via satellite s, and we can receive their programs by using bigger size antenna in some location in china.
The first pay HDTV channel in china is called CCTV-HD ( www.tv.cn), it uses three different encrypting systems: IRDETO 、 NDS and Novel-TongFang .

You need to purchase a Top-Set-Box for DVB-C HDTV to enjoy the program if your local Cable TV Station is transmitting the signal, not only the HDTV but also some SDTV programs. If your local Cable TV Station don't transmit the HDTV signal, then you have to buy a receiver for DVB-S HDTV and a C-band antenna.
