The Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) ensures that the migration of analog TV to digital TV will continue.So, you should check whether the TV only supports analog broadcasts or can be used to watch digital TV broadcasts.If the TV already supports digital TV broadcasts, you don't need to add another device to be able to watch the broadcast.But if it doesn't support it, you need to add a DVB-T2 set top box (STB) tool to be able to watch digital TV broadcasts.To check whether the TV already supports Digital TV broadcasting, you can check the following method.The position may vary by brand, but usually for TVs that support digital TV broadcasts there will be a sticker that says ATSC, DTV, Digital Ready, HD Ready, HDTV, Digital Tuner, built-in Digital Tuner, Integrated Digital Tuner, or Digital Receiver .If there is an inscription, it means that the TV already supports digital broadcasting.If you can't find a sticker, you can look for information on TV specifications, either online or from the manual.For TVs that support digital TV broadcasts there is usually DVB-T2 written in the specifications.Digital broadcasts usually have sub-channels, such as channel A-1, and channel A-2.For example, TVRI has several sub-channels: National TVRI, TVRI 3 Budaya, and TVRI Sport HD.If you find a sub-channel like that, it means that the TV already supports digital broadcasting.Go to the device certification page via the following link (it will look like in the screenshot below).Then in the category column, select the "Television" option.After that, fill in the brand and model that suits your TV.Kominfo has so far stated that on November 2, 2022, TV broadcasts will completely switch to digital TV.
