NEW DELHI: The Union Cabinet on Thursday gave its nod for an ambitious Rs 165 crore plan to allow Doordarshan to upgrade its picture quality to high definition format (HDTV). This will pave the way for DD to telecast the Commonwealth Games 2010 in a superior format.
The proposal was moved by the I&B ministry and will enable DD to beam 16 times sharper images than standard television to Indian TV viewers.
Most of DD's 1,400 transmitters are still on analogue mode, which requires an antenna, and the public broadcaster will need to digitise its entire system.
