https://help.abc.net.au/hc/en-us/articl ... HD-in-JuneFrom June the ABC will start broadcasting the ABC NEWS Channel and ABC Entertains in High Definition (HD), providing a better viewing experience for audiences.
These channels will no longer be available in Standard Definition (SD). The ABC will continue to broadcast the main ABC TV channel in both SD and HD. The ABC Kids/Family channel will also remain on SD.
All TVs sold since 2014, and many sold since 2008, should be HD (MPEG-4) compatible and set up to receive the full range of HD programming and TV multi-channels that are available in your area. TV’s that can tune to all the local free-to-air services available in your region do support HD. The changes should automatically appear in the channel list. If not, you will need to retune your TV.
The ABC plans to implement a staged rollout of the HD upgrade as follows:
Wednesday 11 June – Tasmania and South Australia
Tuesday 17 June – Western Australia and Northern Territory
Thursday 19 June – Queensland
Tuesday 24 June - NSW and ACT
Thursday 26 June - Victoria
