FCC to Make Technical Clarification on DTV Rules
May 27, 2008
Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin Martin says the FCC plans on making a technical correction to its DTV conversion rules that will make broadcasters happy. He has scheduled a vote for June 12 to clarify that broadcasters do not have to provide real-time updates to the producers of electronic program guides when their shows run over their allotted time. The Association For Maximum Service Television had asked for the clarification, pointing out that it was not clear whether or not it was mandatory.
