Rollout of DTT
DTT is intended to replace the existing analogue services provided by RTÉ, TV3 and TG4, by the year 2012. DTT services are likely to commence on a phased basis between autumn 2009 and autumn 2012.
When DTT services are available TV viewers will have greater choice in how to receive TV services:


Buy a set top box and use this in conjunction with our existing television – just like the current situation with those using MMDS, digital cable or satellite, or
Buy an MPEG 4 digital television, or
Pay a subscription to a commercial TV service provider. Commercial TV service providers currently exist and offer services to 70% of TV viewers over cable, MMDS, IPTV or satellite.

The new commercial DTT service is expected to launch in 2009.
The analogue free to air services currently providing RTÉ, TG4 and TV3 will continue to operate until they are switched off. This will not be before 2012.

Hi Conorg087.

as far as I'm aware you can buy the mpeg2 to mpeg4 cam and this will allow you to view the picture. The cam is around €60. Goldwafers dont appear to have it on their site as the UK currenlty uses mpeg2 for SD freeview broadcasts but you can buy the cam elsewhere (or Goldwafers may be able to special order one for you). If you google "MPEG4 to MPEG2 Viaccess CAM" you will get more information.
