Note: DVB-T/T2 digital TV is NOT digital cable TV or digital satellite TV. The WinTV-HVR-935HD cannot receive digital satellite TV directly. You can bring TV from your satellite box through the WinTV-HVR-935-HD's A/V inputs.

DVB-C digital cable TV channels are digital cable channels which can be watched on a TV set without requiring a cable TV set top box. Many cable operators transmit the local high definition DVB-T/T2 channels using DVB-C. Some cable operators transmit additional non-premium TV programs using DVB-C.

DVB-C channels range from standard definition to the highest 1080i definition.

You’re prepared for the future. If you live in an area where you can’t currently receive DVB-T/T2 digital TV, the WinTV-HVR-935HD can still be used to watch and record analog TV from cable TV or a TV antenna if it is still broadcasting in your region. But you're prepared for the future! When DVB-T/T2/C digital TV comes to your area, WinTV-HVR-935HD will also receive the new digital TV channels.
