The “giant” TVs: here’s how to choose them

It is an analysis carried out by MediaWorld to reveal which were the 5 trends that have characterized purchases of our compatriots over the past year. And among the small appliances related to the sector of food – such as coffee machines or deep fryers – and rechargeable brooms that would have been chosen by many Italians, on the podium we find the smart televisions which are placed in second position between devices for smart workers and those dedicated to sanitation.

Speaking of TV, in fact, from today, March 8, the national broadcasters will carry out the switch to MPEG-4 encoding therefore the channels transmitted with the new coding can only be viewed on televisions and decoders compatible with high definition. For many therefore, it may be necessary to replace the TV with a newer model: but how to check if the one in possession will continue to work?

The answer is the Nuova Digital TV site of the Ministry of Economic Development: “You can check that your device is compatible with HD trying to see the channels that are currently already available in high quality: for example, channel 501 for RAIUNO HD, 505 for Canale 5 HD and 507 for LA7 HD. Not all channels in HD need to be visible – if at least one of these channels is visible, then the TV is compatible and will allow viewing of the programs that will be gradually transmitted with the MPEG-4 encoding ».

However, those who intend to change the television in their possession because it is incompatible or unable to connect to the internet to access streaming services such as Netflix or Amazon Prime Video, could choose to buy a “giant” one to transform the living room into a cinema room.
