Television
Applies to vehicles: with analog TV and DVB-T
Introduction
For safety reasons, the TV picture is not available while
the vehicle is moving.
Via the MMI system you can receive either analog TV channels or
digital TV channels as well as digital radio stations 9) in the DVB-T
standard.
Your MMI system automatically displays a list of the available TV
channels. You do not even have to set up the channels. Use the
rotary pushbutton in the usual way to select the TV channels.
However, which and how many channels you can receive depends
on your location and the quality of the reception.
DVB-T channels/stations can primarily be received in big metropol-
itan areas. Reception is dependent on a number of factors, e.g. the
distance to the transmitter and the speed at which the vehicle is
travelling.
Would you like to connect additional AV devices to your MMI
system? No problem! You can connect up to two AV devices
(audio/video out port). You only have to set the appropriate AV
standard
page 79. Suitable connector cables are available from
Audi dealers or specialist retailers.
The picture is at first only shown within the inner section of the
display; however, after a few seconds it will expand to the full
screen. The volume will automatically be muted if the TV reception
becomes poor. The volume will be switched on again automatically
if the TV reception quality improves. While you are driving, the
screen will be darkened for your safety. However, you can still listen
to the audio.
Note
•The analog/digital TV reception only supports the DVB-T
standard. Other standards such as DVB via satellite (DVB-S) or
encoded programmes / Pay TV are not supported.
•Playback of multi-channel programmes in Dolby Digital 5.1
sound is not supported. These programmes are then reproduced in
stereo.
•The DVB-T network is still in the process of expanding and is
therefore not available in all areas. Please obtain information
regarding DVB-T reception in the region you live in.
•You can operate the DVB functions via the MMI if the DVB-T
receiver was fitted at the factory.
Applies to vehicles: with analog TV and DVB-T
