Welcome to Star Choice Digital Television
Star Choice was Canada's first launched direct-to-home satellite television service provider.
Star Choice uses the Digicipher II digital transmission standard, initially designed for use in the cable television industry. Digicipher II was developed by General Instruments, one of the most respected manufacturer of television distribution systems in the world. Digicipher II delivers unmatched video and CD quality sound, perfect for home theater systems.
Digicipher II is the standard of choice, for the television industry across North America. Star Choice is also the only DTH service in Canada to use true Dolby Digital technology. Today's Star Choice receivers are also ready for High Definition Television (HDTV) and Star Choice offers 2 HDTV channels to viewers equiped with the HDD201 decoder.
Through the use of Digicipher II technology, Star Choice allows consumers to receive "first generation signals" for many of its stations, which means unmatched picture quality for you, the viewer:
A "first generation signal" is a signal being received as it was intended to be received when it left the studio where it was initially encoded. A "second generation signal" is a signal that was decoded and re-encoded, before being sent over to your receiver.
First generation signals come from the broadcaster, straight to your home.
Second generation signals are decoded and re-encoded before they get to you, resulting in a slight signal degradation.
