Whether the number of channels in MPEG-2 / SD significantly reduced in 2020 year? I ask this question the other day Polish edition satkurier.pl. New standards for satellite broadcasting DVB-S2 signal, MPEG-4 and HD have long become common not only among broadcasters, but also among the viewers themselves. In Poland, almost nobody uses common SD-receivers, and multiplex DVB-S popular orbital position of Eutelsat Hot Bird (13 degrees East longitude) It becomes more free space.
channels, broadcasted in MPEG-2 / SD becomes, in turn, Less and less, and this applies to all telecommunications satellites, to some extent, recalling the end of analogue satellite television stories. As at 13 November 2019 year transponders DVB-S / QPSK, who work with the group of satellites Eutelsat Hot Bird 13B / 13C / 13E, broadcast 154 channel MPEG-2 / sd. For comparison, over the same period 10 years ago it was available about 420-440 channel MPEG-2 / SD! Owners of HD-receivers can view more 197 open channels, including 93 high-definition television standard (HD).
Currently, out of 102 transponder satellite group Eutelsat Hot Bird forty remain in DVB-S, (a) 58 They operate in a more modern standard DVB-S2. Remaining 4 transponder is not involved. 10 years ago, in the same month, in DVB-S2 broadcast only 13 transponders, and HD-channels are considered premium content and additional paid subscribers. For a long time the only open-HD channel was the Franco-German ARTE.
Most of channels in DVB-S / MPEG-2 / SD providers is airing MX1, GlobeCast, MB Satellite, Telespazio, Eutelsat, iKOMG, M-Three satcom and Arabsat for individual broadcasters and their open (FTA) channels. Some channels broadcast for the Italian market for RAI platforms, TivùSat и Sky Italia.
