Some Rai and Mediaset channels are not seen: why, what happened
Are some Rai and Mediaset channels not seen? Don’t panic. From today, Wednesday 20 October 2021, a series of channels have migrated to the new digital terrestrial system Dbv-T2, with the transition from Mpeg2 encoding to the more refined Mpeg4, effectively leading the way in a transition that will involve all Italian television, the The conclusion of which is scheduled for January 1, 2023. The main Italian networks, Rai and Mediaset, have decided on a “staggered” entry of their channels into the new universe, a possibility guaranteed by the ministerial directives on the subject. The first to make the switch were above all thematic channels. Channels Rai broadcasting in Mpeg4 from today, Wednesday 20 October 2021, are Rai 4, Rai 5, Rai Movie, Rai YoYo, Rai Sport + HD, Rai Storia, Rai Gulp, Rai Premium and Rai Scuola. The Mediaset channels are TgCom 24, Mediaset Italia 2, Boing Plus, Radio 105, R101 Tv and Virgin Radio Tv. No change – but only for now – instead for the generalist channels. Rai: there will be no changes on our devices for the Rai 1, Rai 2, Rai 3 and Rainews24 channels. On the Mediaset front they will remain for now with the old standard Canale 5, Italia 1 and Rete 4.
What to do to see the channels broadcast in Mpeg4
We have seen why some Rai and Mediaset channels are not seen today, but what needs to be done to get back to seeing everything? Not all TVs can show channels that broadcast in Mpeg4. In fact, in the homes of Italians there are still hundreds of thousands of televisions that do not “hold up” the new system. They are, in particular, those purchased before 2010. Those in possession of these devices will not be able to see the programs broadcast on the channels that switch to the new coding and therefore to do so they will have to buy new devices or an ad hoc decoder.
