Hello,
We have just been given a Haier LET LET32C800H television. The label features the symbol "DVB T/C", which we understand (not very well...) to mean that the digital terrestrial television receiver is already built into the TV. We bought an Analog/Digital TV antenna thinking it would allow us to receive the TNT network.
The problem is that we can't seem to set it up... In the automatic search, we are asked to choose between DVB-T and DVB-C, and already we don't know which one to pick. Whichever option we choose, we then have to select a country from a list, and we have no idea which one to choose!
If any of you have information about this, it would be greatly appreciated!!

DTT is the Digital Terrestrial Television according to the DVB-T standard (T=Terrestrial) received through an individual or collective UHF rooftop antenna (indoor antennas without guarantee) connected to a television with at least one integrated MPEG 4 DTT tuner and generally also a tuner for DVB-C = Cable, but cable networks primarily use the DVB-T standard for channels via DTT.
(Some televisions have a triple tuner, including the DVB-S2 standard = Satellite via satellite dish). -
Hello,
I have no doubt that digital terrestrial television is accessible across the entire territory, but given the size of "the Rock," it’s better to check if your neighbors can receive it.
Furthermore, my trials, while being 500 m from a transmitter in the Paris region, have led me to give up on amplified indoor antennas (powered by mains electricity) in favor of a simple passive recovery antenna or the only current equipment I’ve found, Captimax (www.antengrin.com), which can be used indoors or outdoors.
Don’t hesitate to try your TV on a neighbor’s antenna line to check the reception and buy the same type of aerial if necessary.

So if I understand correctly, the fact that the TV label mentions DVB-T means that the TNT receiver is indeed integrated, right?
Then we actually connected an individual outdoor antenna. We finally managed to do a procedure without having to select a country; the search was different because it displayed scrambled screens instead of the usual black screen. The TV then said "Congratulations, installation complete," but when we try to tune to a channel, it still says "no information."
What should we do now? Should we try moving the antenna to find a spot where it receives a signal? How will we know if that is the case?
Thank you for your response.
