Television in Slovakia

Television in Slovakia

Television stations in Slovakia broadcast in PAL format. Broadcasting is mostly in the Slovak language, state owned channels have some dedicated broadcasting for ethnic minorities (always subtitled). Foreign language (with the exception of Czech) movies and shows are dubbed (rarely subtitled). Czech production is mostly broadcasted in original, with the exception of juvenile programs. Often, foreign language movies are broadcasted with Czech dubbing. Czech television channels are also rather popular in Slovakia, received either directly in border regions or carried by cable companies.

There are also some test transmissions of digital terrestrial television.
