MEXICO CITY (Expansion) –
from the 27th of October, users will have to reprogram your tv to capture the order of the channels in the open service, as the Federal Institute of Telecommunications (IFT) conducted the mapping of virtual channels to avoid interference and problems of identification.
The mapping of virtual channels made it the IFT according to their identity programme, which in addition to the name and logo includes the content of each signal, said Mary Lizarraga, the head of the Unit of media and audiovisual content of the Institute.
The goal of assigning virtual channels, form part of the transition to digital television, which allows for a greater offer in the programming of the tv channels, something that is known as multiprogramación. The new signal offers higher-quality image and audio, as well as other interactive services such as subtitles and epgs, in accordance with information of the IFT.
virtual channels are accompanied by a secondary number, for example, the channel Azteca 13 is tuned in the spectrum 1.1 of the open television at the national level.
The reprogramming will take a few minutes to the user, and the main change will be that each channel will have the same number across the country (with the exception in some cities in the north), as it was previously changed in each entity.
In Tijuana, and Nuevo Laredo, the content of the channel 2 of Televisa will tune in the virtual channel 57.1, while in the rest of the country will be 2.1.
In Mexicali, Chihuahua, Saltillo, Monterrey, Hermosillo, and Ciudad Victoria, the Image content Television is tuned into channel 18.1, and at the national level will be 3.1. While Channel 5 in Tijuana you will see in 6.1 and in the rest of the country will be in the frequency 5.1
licensees and permittees were given the opportunity to apply for your change of number of virtual channel. "Aztec decided that he preferred the number one and assigned to all the signals that share programmatic content," said Lizarraga.
