mmadhankumar said:DTV Tuner stands for Digital Television Tuner. To understand this we need to start from scratch.
there are different television standards used worldwide. they are PAL, NTSC, ATSC, SECAM, DVB, ISDB, DTMB.
in these PAL, NTSC and SECAM are analog transmission and others are digital transmission. To receive PAL, NTSC and SECAM Analog tuners are enough. But to receive the OTA signals in ATSC/DVB transmission we need Digital Tuners
In india we use only PAL and NTSC. So we need only the analog tuners. Digital telecast like DTH, Digital Cable need DTV tuners but it will be inbuilt to the STB provided by the operators of those services.
All TVs in India will have the analog tuners built in. But soon we plan to switch to Digital transmission. After the switch, we would need the DTV tuners to receive OTA digital signals. So, newer TVs are now equipped with the DTV tuners.
