HDTV Guide

After the transition, you need a television or set-top box with an HD tuner to receive TV broadcasts. Most Finns have an HD-compatible device. However, you can check from the attached link whether your device is compatible with high-definition broadcasts. In addition, the page offers instructions for, among other things, the purchase of a new television or set-top box, as well as for recycling an old television.

High-definition broadcasts will become part of all households from the spring of 2025 with the transition to HD. On these pages, you can get information about the transition and the actions required by it.

Our FAQ page gives you answers to frequently asked questions, such as how you can find out whether your TV is part of an antenna or cable network or in which areas HD channels are available.

In the HD glossary you will find all the terms and abbreviations you may encounter during the transition. What does DVB-T2 mean? Or pairing ID? What about UHDTV?
