▼What is digital satellite (DSAT) TV?

Digital satellite (DSAT) TV is the latest stage in the evolution of TV, giving you not only digital

quality pictures and stereo sound, but also the opportunity to receive many more channels and

services.

▼

▼▼

▼Your iDTV

Your decoder receives the digital information via the satellite, decodes it and displays it on

your iDTV. As well as watching satellite TV, you can control your viewing preferences through

the on-screen Sky Guide.

Welcome to digital satellite (DSAT) TV!

▼

▼▼

▼What is SkyGuide?

services. It is designed for people who want to get the most out of watching television.

♦select the programmes you want to watch for the next seven days and set reminders for

them

As digital television develops and as more features become available, Sky may occasionally

update the Sky Guide software by loading it into your iDTV directly from the satellite. These

software updates can be received if your IDTV is in use or is left in standby mode. You will find

this information on the Sky Customer Channel 999, and Sky Welcome 998.
