DESCRIPTION:
Great Book! I bought this book for a friend who bought a new HD TV and became interested in how and why digital broadcasting works the way it does. He is a techno-nerd, so I would suggest this book only if you have a good basic understanding of electronics. He said it was the best book he could have gotten to begin his exploration of the subject. I would highly recommend this for someone who has a lively curiousity about digital broadcasting and wants to introduce it properly into the home.. "Not very interesting." according to Marshall B. Kerr. I made the switch. Bite me Comcast! I went satellite!!I did not know what I was getting into, but I knew that I was going to switch to satellite. From what research I did on my own as well as experienced opinions of personal friends, I knew that it was probably the better option for our home. I purchased the book "Digital Television blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah the-Air" hoping for an upbeat introduction to the new technology and maybe some tips on useful accessories etc.Blah.The book totally does not hold my attention.Dudek i. "Easy to understand with lots of information" according to Ioannis Rekleitis. This is a great book that comes to cover a void between too technical books that are addressed to experts and too simple books that have almost zero content. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone that is curious about their home entertainment unit, and also to anyone that is interested in improving their experience using all the available options.All in all a great book
It also looks closely at the DVB and ATSC video protocols and how they are used in satellite, cable and over-the-air TV broadcasting. The most detailed chapters, however, provide enough detail to satisfy even a technically sophisticated audience. It even provides enough detail for the computer hobbyist or home theater specialist to get involved in building or modifying a digital video system of his or her own.. How digital television works, and how to get the most out of it. In accessible language, it describes how to upgrade an existing home entertainment system to digital television, how satellite and cable TV works, and it describes the core technologies involved. This book is basic enough so that no previous background is needed
