  • Media Nations 2019
    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • Eine Anleitung Finden Sie Hier
    Durch die Umstellung des TV-Signals von Vodafon Kabel auf Privat Kabel ändert sich auch die Reihenfolge Ihrer Programme. Führen Sie deshalb bitte nach der Umstellung einen Sendersuchlauf durch, um alle Sender wie gewohnt empfangen zu können. Jedes TV-Geräte und jeder Receiver sind anders aufgebaut. Die wesentlichen Schritte sind aber auf allen Geräten ähnlich. Wenn Sie zum ersten Mal den Sendersuchlauf auf Ihrem Gerät starten, empfehlen wir die Bedienungsanleitung zur Hand zu nehmen. Die folgende Anleitung ist daher allgemein gehalten. Folgende Schritte sind immer zu beachten: Öffnen Sie über die Fernbedienung das Menü des Fernsehers oder des SAT-Receivers Bitte beachten Sie: Die Begriffe können sich von Gerät zu Gerät unterscheiden. Rufen Sie "Menü" oder "Home" auf Ihrem Fernseher oder Receiver auf Wählen Sie den Menüpunkt "Einstellungen" oder "Setup" Wählen Sie "Senderempfang" oder "Sendersuche". Die gängigsten Begriffe finden Sie hier. Wählen Sie „Automatischer Sendersuchlauf“ Wählen Sie nun die richtigen Einstellungen: Quelle: Kabel, Cable oder DVB-C Sendertyp: Digital, DTV Suchlaufmodus: Voll Suchbereich: Alle Sender Falls die gewünschten Sender nach dem Sendersuchlauf nicht erscheinen, auf die Werkseinstellungen zurücksetzen. Bei einem Werksreset werden Sie vielleicht nach einem PIN gefragt – häufig lautet dieser 0000. Der Sendersuchlauf bzw. Werksreset kann einige Zeit dauern, 15 Min und länger. Sortieren Sie bei Bedarf an- schließend Ihre Lieblingssender wieder an den gewohnten Platz. Einige Anlagen haben zusätzlich einen Satelliten-Direkt-Empfang von Astra 19,2 Grad und Eutelsat 13 Grad (Hotbird). Wenn Sie diese Programme auch empfangen möchten, prüfen Sie ob Ihr Fernseher ein Triple Tuner hat (DVB-T2, DVB-C und DVB-S) und starten erneut den Sendersuchlauf mit geänderter Quelle jetzt DVB-S.

  • BBC Trust’S Review of BBC Services for Younger Audiences
    Channel 4 submission to the BBC Trust’s review of BBC services for younger audiences 1. Channel 4 welcomes the opportunity to provide its views to the BBC Trust’s review of BBC services for younger audiences. Channel 4 is a publicly-owned, commercially-funded public service broadcaster. Its core public service channel, Channel 4, is a free-to-air service funded predominantly by advertising. Unlike the other commercially-funded public service broadcasters, Channel 4 is not shareholder owned: commercial revenue is only a means to delivering Channel 4’s public purpose end and any surplus revenues are reinvested in the delivery of its public service remit. 2. In recent years, Channel 4 has broadened its portfolio to offer a range of digital services, including the free-to-air, commercially-funded digital television channels Channel 4+1, E4, E4+1, Film4, More4 and 4Music. Channel 4 also offers a video on demand service, 4oD, and it is expanding its range of services at channel4.com. In addition, Channel 4 offers a range of online education projects for 14 to 19 year olds and has launched an innovation pilot fund, 4iP, which seeks to stimulate whole new digital media services across a range of areas, including video games, the arts, democracy and sport. 3. These innovations have allowed Channel 4 to stay in touch with audiences— especially younger viewers—who are rapidly migrating to digital media. Ever since its launch in 1982, Channel 4’s brand has resonated particularly strongly with teenagers and younger adults, and the organisation speaks with an authenticity of voice which is not easily replicated by other public institutions.
