Abu Dhabi to Launch HD
Channel in October

The channel called Abu Dhabi HD, offers cinematic visual clarity on a television screen.

It will feature a wide range of programming including sporting events such as English Premiership football, documentaries from National Geographic Abu Dhabi, dramas
and movies.

Abu Dhabi HD will be accessible, through E-Vision, to viewers in the UAE with compatible HD television sets and set-top boxes, which are available from leading electronics retailers.

HD television features picture quality that is up to four times higher than standard television channels, which translates into sharper, brighter and more vibrant images and sound, allowing viewers an unparalleled home entertainment experience.

The launch of Abu Dhabi HD is a significant milestone for ADMC,” said Edward Borgerding, Chief Executive Officer, Abu Dhabi Media Company.

“HD is the future of television, both broadcast and Internet Protocol TV (IPTV), and it is essential that ADMC offers its viewers the opportunity to experience the latest most modern advances in television quality.”

Abu Dhabi HD will be available through E-Vision, and will deliver rich, outstanding content to viewers equipped with easy-to-install HD TVs and set-top boxes.

The Personal Video Recorder (PVR) function, will allow viewers to pause, rewind and record while watching the latest films, dramas, documentaries from National Geographic Abu Dhabi or sporting action from the
English Premier League, said ADMEDIA. —
