For the purposes of this Law, a mass media specializing in messages and materials of an erotic nature means a periodical publication or program that generally and systematically exploits interest in sex.

Retail sales of media products specializing in messages and materials of an erotic nature are permitted only in sealed transparent packaging and in specially designated premises, the location of which is determined by the local administration.

Until 2010, almost half of Russian residents (44%) could receive no more than four TV channels. At the same time, the possibilities for the development of analogue broadcasting were exhausted. Thanks to the introduction of digital broadcasting technologies, by the end of 2018, 98.4% of the country’s residents will be able to watch 10 TV channels of the first multiplex for free, and more than 98% of TV viewers will be able to watch 20 channels of the first and second multiplexes.

The package of digital channels RTRS-1 (the first multiplex) includes all-Russian mandatory public TV channels and radio channels. The list of these television and radio channels was determined by Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated June 24, 2009 No. 715 “On all-Russian compulsory public television channels and radio channels” and its subsequent editions: Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated April 17, 2012 No. 456, Decree of the President of the Russian Federation dated April 20, 2013 No. 367 , By Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of July 15, 2015 No. 365.

Digital TV channels are broadcast in the DVB-T2 standard.

We remind you that in accordance with the Law “On the Mass Media” as amended on July 13, 2015, television and radio channels that received the right to digital broadcasting using positions in multiplexes throughout the territory Russian Federation, are classified as mandatory public television and radio channels. Mandatory public television and radio channels are subject to distribution in all broadcast media without charging consumers (TV viewers, radio listeners) for the right to view and listen.

Since January 2019, Russia has been switching from analogue to digital television signals. This allows you not only to improve the quality of image and sound, but also to increase the number of free channels.

The mandatory transition to digital applies only to terrestrial television broadcasting. 99% of households in Moscow are connected to cable television. The transition to digital broadcasting will also not affect those who have satellite or Internet television - they already have digital broadcasting.

When will analogue broadcasting be turned off in Moscow, and from what date in 2019?

The shutdown of analogue terrestrial TV in Russia is happening in stages. It will take place in Moscow on April 15, 2019.

In this regard, those who watch TV through an antenna, in some cases need to prepare in advance to receive a digital signal. Otherwise, after turning off analogue broadcasting, their TVs will stop showing.

I want to know whether my television is analogue or digital?

Turn on the main central channels - Channel One, Russia 1, NTV, Channel Five, REN-TV, STS, TNT, Zvezda, TVC and others.

If you see the letter “A” next to the logos, then you have an analogue television, and you need to do a number of steps so that your TV can receive a digital signal.

If there is no "A" next to the logo, after April 15 you will be able to continue watching TV as before. The absence of the letter "A" means that:

  • you initially have digital television (satellite or Internet TV);
  • you have terrestrial television, but the transition to digital broadcasting has already been completed;
  • Do you have cable TV? Moscow authorities have agreed with cable television operators to preserve analogue broadcasting on cable. But if you want, you can also switch to digital broadcasting in cable.

note: If you have several TVs at home, they can receive a TV signal different ways. For example, in the living room the TV is connected to cable TV, and in the kitchen the reception is via an antenna.

How to set up digital if I watch TV through an antenna?

If you have analogue television (there is an “A” next to the central channel logos), find out whether your TV supports the DVB-T2 standard. Digital TVs released after 2012 mostly have a corresponding decoder; those released earlier may not support this format (this is especially true for older analog TVs).

You can check whether your TV supports the DVB-T2 standard in the instructions for the TV or using the “Search for information about TV” service on the website of the Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting Network (RTRS). You will need to enter the make and model of your TV.

If your TV supports DVB-T2, you just need to set up your TV using the remote control:

  1. Step 2: Connect antenna cable to the antenna input of your digital TV.
  2. Step 4. Go to the appropriate section of the TV settings menu and activate the digital tuner.
  3. Step 5. Automatically search for programs using the instruction manual. You can perform a manual channel search. In this case, you must enter the channel number or frequency.

What to do if your TV does not support digital format

If your TV does not support this format, you need to purchase additional equipment - a digital set-top box (receiver). If you have two TVs that you watch through an antenna, and you want to watch different channels on them, you need to purchase a set-top box for each of them. The digital set-top box needs to be connected to the TV and configured:

  1. Step 1: Turn off the TV's power.
  2. Step 2. Connect the antenna cable to the antenna input of the digital set-top box. Connect the video and audio cables to the appropriate jacks on your TV and set-top box. The image quality will be higher when connecting the set-top box to the TV with an HDMI cable.
  3. Step 3: Connect the power and turn on the TV.
  4. Step 4. From the menu, select the required input source: HDMI, AV, SCART and others.
  5. Step 5. Automatically search for digital TV programs using the operating instructions. You can perform a manual search. In this case, you must enter the channel number or frequency.

How can I switch my TV to digital if I have cable TV in 2019?

If you have cable TV and want to set up a digital signal, you need:

  1. Step 1. Enter the menu using special button on the remote control.
  2. Step 2. Go to the “Channel” section, which usually has a satellite dish icon.
  3. Step 3. Select "Auto search".
  4. Step 4. Select “Cable” from the proposed connection options.
  5. Step 5. Next, select “Digital” and click on “Start”.
  6. Step 6: If you want to keep the analog channels, select “Analog and Digital”.

If you have any additional questions, you can contact your operator's support team.

Please note: if you receive a TV signal through cable, but still see the letter "A" next to the center channel logos, you will need to contact your cable operator's support team and ask about how you can connect to digital TV within the current tariff .

What channels will be available to me after switching to digital TV?

If you watch television through an antenna, after switching to a digital signal, 20 mandatory TV channels of the first and second multiplexes will be available to you. Anyone with an antenna can receive a signal and watch these channels for free.

  • The first multiplex includes: Channel One, “Russia 1”, “Match TV”, NTV, “Petersburg - Channel Five”, “Culture”, “Russia 24”, “Carousel”, OTR, “TV Center - Moscow”.
  • The second multiplex includes: REN TV, Spas, STS, Domashny, TV-3, Friday!, Zvezda, Mir, TNT, Muz-TV).

After the advent of digital television a large number of users were excited about the transition to a modern format. What are the reasons? Of course, in the desire to try a new product, as well as frequent discussions that the quality of the incoming signal is much higher. Accordingly, this improves the picture quality. Ease of access also attracts new users.

Digital TV can be connected even to CRT models. To do this, you will need to use additional devices. And of course modern models TVs are capable of catching this reception.

In the Moscow region and the capital, the well-known television and radio network Ostankino offers a huge number of on-air channels in the public domain. This allows you to receive a signal without additional registration and fees for Russian television programs. Reception is available both on individual antennas located in the room and on external ones.

There are also paid channels that charge a certain amount each month. How many channels are there on digital television today 2019? What is needed to receive their signal? More on this later.

Digital signal reception methods

There are four options for connecting free and pay TV channels:

  • Cable. In this case, the signal is received via cable. The main disadvantage is the subscription fee. This method is not available everywhere.
  • Satellite. Here, the signal is transmitted via satellite and received through an installed personal dish. There is also a specific subscription fee charged here. Requires the purchase of equipment designed for satellite TV.
  • Terrestrial (DVB television). Terrestrial repeaters distribute a signal that can be received by an indoor or outdoor antenna. This connection option does not require additional financial expenses. A convenient way to watch TV programs in modern broadcast format.

The digital set-top box (Dvb T2) picks up channels differently than the previously described option. The signal level is low. It is difficult to catch it in case of bad weather, as well as its location far from the TV tower.

The lowest price is receiving digital TV using an antenna, which is installed and configured independently by the user. You can add various channels.

What are multiplexes

Multiplex is a connection in one digital package of different TV channels during digital television broadcasting, combined before transmission over the channel and separated at the final receiving element (subscriber's receiver) with the allocation of 1 or 2 TV channels.

Digital television in Russia in the DVB T2 format offers 20 TV channels, which are divided into 2 packages, this is called multiplexes. These are free to watch digital channels - there is no set subscription fee. The user only needs a TV; a set-top box with a decoder that receives the DVB T2 frequency range (if such a decoder is not available on the TV) and an antenna.

Package No. 1 is a group of information, news and development channels (Russia 1 and 2, 1 and 5 channels and others).

This package operates wherever digital television is present. If there is a working digital TV tower nearby, you will most likely receive all 10 channels. The user will be able to catch either all 10 at once, or not just one. The reason for this is that channels 1 of the multiplex are transmitted at the same frequency. Broadcasting is carried out at a frequency of 546 MHz using DVB-T2.

Quite often the composition of channels in this package changes. Competitions are held among programs, as a result of which the list may differ. Frequency 498 MHz with DVB prefix.

Package No. 3 is in development, but it will be paid. Cheaper and simple option It is considered to use cable and get more than 100 channels from 200 rubles per month.

This package will work in test mode. In it, users will also be able to find programs of maximum HD clarity.

What you need to view

To show digital television channels, special equipment is required:

  • Antenna;
  • Set-top box for digital television or TV with a DVB T2 tuner. The device must support the MPEG 4 standard and be capable of operating in Multiple PLP mode.

As for the antenna, you can opt for a standard analog one. If you have a new model TV, then it may have an integrated digital tuner. In this case, there is no need to buy a set-top box.

If you don't know if your model has a digital TV tuner, check technical certificate. Alternatively, enter the model name in the search engine.

There are two types of antenna devices:

  1. Active - when amplifiers are used, a connection is made to the source electrical energy. When using a receiver, 5-V is supplied through it. This can be done through the settings in the menu – “Antenna power”. Not always using an active device correct solution. Since if you are close to the tower, the signal may disappear completely.
  2. Passive - there are no additional amplifiers here. They are used most often in areas with a stable signal. This option is easier for connecting several TVs.


Let's look at the features of choosing a digital tuner. Anyone who encounters such a purchase for the first time most likely thinks that all consoles are identical. The main condition the right choice is to avoid making mistakes in key technical characteristics.

There are other points that can affect the further operation of the equipment and the breadth of the functional component:

  • There are no buttons on the external panel of the device - this obliges the user to work only with the remote control. This is not always practical.
  • If the tuner does not have a USB port, the device cannot be used as a media player. With the presence of such equipment, you can record TV shows, view photos and videos.

Please note that a set-top box with a separate power supply is considered a chic option. Most often, this element is built inside. Most common cause Tuner failure is considered to be a malfunction of the power supply. If this device fails, you can take it to a service center or replace the entire set-top box. But a separate unit is an opportunity to replace the component without any problems.
