Pra quem gosta de filmes

Sei que não tem nada a ver, mas eu gosto e quero compartilhar. Pronto.
Pra quem gosta de filmes, assim como eu, e passa horas na frente da TV assistindo e se deleitando com imagens, enrredo, trama e sons perfeitos, a TV digital está aí; uma nova era já começou.
Como será que é o sinal de TV no Canadá? Será que é digital? Será que dá suporte para Full HD 1080i? Bem, encontrei algumas respostas, porém nada comparado aos esclarecimentos para leigos que encontramos em sites brasileiros. Se alguém puder nos ajudar com mais informações está aqui uma ótima oportunidade para nos comentários criarmos um compêndio de dados sobre o sistema canadense e qual melhor equipamento adquirir. Fiquem à vontade pra responder essas perguntas.

Sobre o Canadá vou colar aqui um trecho do artigo retirado do Wikipédia "List of Digital Television deployments by Country":

"The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) has adopted the same digital television standard for stations in Canada as the United States. The CRTC initially decided not to enforce a single date for transitioning to digital broadcasts, opting to let the economy decide when the switchover will occur. However, a later decision settled on the date of August 31, 2011.^[26]

CITY-TV was the first Canadian station to provide digital terrestrial service. As of 2007, other digital stations on-air include the CBC and Radio-Canada stations in Toronto and Montreal, as well as CTV's CFTO and CIVT, and CKXT (SUN TV). This list is not necessarily exhaustive and other station launches are completed or pending, although most are in the largest markets of Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal. Also, this does not include digital or high definition versions of specialty channels.

On November 22, 2003, CBC had their first broadcast in HD, in the form of the Heritage Classic outdoor NHL game between the Edmonton Oilers and the Montreal Canadiens. Bell TV, a Canadian satellite company, Rogers Cable and Vidéotron provide somewhat more than 21 HDTV channels to their subscribers including TSN HD, Rogers Sportsnet HD, Discovery HD(Canadian Edition),The Movie Network HD, and several U.S. stations plus some PBS feeds and a couple of pay-TV movie channels. CTV Toronto broadcast in HD along with its western counterpart, BC CTV. They were also the first to broadcast a terrestrial HD digital ATSC signal in Canada. Global joined the crowd in late 2004. Other networks are continuing to announce availability of HD signals. CHUM Limited's Citytv in Toronto was the first HDTV broadcaster in Canada; however, now most cable and satellite subscribers across Canada can access multiple channels in HDTV with major American and Canadian affiliate stations broadcasting HDTV signals with no CANCON overlay for advertising. Typically these channels are NBC HD,ABC HD, CBS HD, Fox HD, TSN HD, Sportsnet HD, CBC HD, etc., as of summer 2006. CBC HD officially launched their HDTV programming on March 5, 2005. CBC HD broadcasts the first game of their Hockey Night in Canada Saturday double header in HDTV. The 2006 Stanley Cup playoffs games have seen an increased amount of HDTV coverage as well. Shaw Direct, another Canadian satellite provider, currently offers its subscribers 14 HDTV channels at no extra cost. Shaw Cable has found limited success with HDTV implementation since the cost of a HD PVR is near the $750 CAD mark. Monthly rentals for this equipment are not available; however, they do offer financing on 36-month terms through a third-party credit company."

Achei também um outro artigo muito legal para quem quer se aprofundar no assunto: "High-definition Television", nele você encontra muita informação, inclusive técnica, sobre os sistemas mais modernos de transmissão de sinal de TV. Muito legal!

Agora, site brasileiro é que é legal mesmo!!! Achei um que é para leigo mesmo! Fala sobre o sistema instalado no BR. Fala sobre Full HD 1080, entre outros detalhes, que pra quem gosta mesmo de TV são importantíssimos! É uma propaganda de uma marca de eletrônicos, mas é muito legal, achei 10, então deem uma olhada em Os Remotos e confiram uma aulinha sobre o tema, depois escolham a melhor TV para suas salas (pode ser de outra marca tbm, não to ganhando nada por esse comercial).
