High Definition TV

It’s television as you’ve never seen it before. With Hawaiian Telcom’s High Definition (HD), you’ll experience true widescreen picture quality that’s 10 times better than standard television. 5.1 Dolby® Digital sound provides theatre-quality viewing in the comfort of your home. All Hawaiian Telcom Set Top Boxes are HD-ready.

In the guide, HD programs are identified by an HD icon after the program title.

Managing Live TV Feeds

Hawaiian Telcom TV supports up to 8 TVs and delivers 4 live TV feeds to your household. A TV feed can be a live TV show, a Video On Demand (VOD) program or a Pay Per View (PPV) event. If you have a DVR, you can watch or record 4 live TV programs simultaneously among the TVs in your household. For example, you can do one of the following:

• Watch or Record 4 different live TV programs
• Record 1 live program on your DVR and watch 3 other live programs

You can also watch up to 3 of the 4 available live TV programs in HD and the rest in standard definition (SD). And if you have 2 or more TVs tuned to the same live TV program you’ll only be using 1 live TV feed.

If you receive your TV service over fiber you’ll have additional streaming capabilities.
