History

The Eska TV channel began its test broadcast on the Internet on August 8, 2008. Since May 28, 2009, Eska TV has been available via satellite and cable to a wider audience, at the same time the channel joined the digital platform n in the Style Moda Muzyka package.[5] On October 5, 2009, the program was decoded from the Hot Bird satellite for owners of HDTV satellite receivers that receive transmissions in the DVB-S2 standard, even though the channel broadcasts its program in SD, not HD. Initially, the channel was supposed to be uncoded for only a few weeks, but after that period it was not coded.[6] Since September 1, 2010, the program has been available on all FTA receivers thanks to broadcasting on the second transponder in the DVB-S system. The DVB-S2 broadcast was switched off on September 2, 2010. Since the beginning of the station's existence, new songs have been broadcast, from genres such as pop-rock, R&B, pop, disco, Hip-Hop, electronic dance music (club music), mainly dance (epic house, euro house, vocal trance), house (including hard house, electro house) and trance. In 2015, Polish-language dance music and disco polo music were also broadcast.[7][8]

On June 25, 2011, the graphics were refreshed and a new logo and graphic design were introduced. In April 2014, a refreshed station logo appeared, and over the following days, a new design was gradually introduced. On October 1, 2014, a new graphic design was introduced with the current on-screen logo. The bars with the song name had the appropriate color scheme for the program being broadcast (i.e. in the 2011-April 2014 design). After the introduction of the 'cartoon' design in 2015, the bars in all programs had the same color scheme. On July 10, 2015, the HD version of the channel was launched.[9][10][11]

Due to falling viewership, the station owner applied in April 2016 for a change of the license from music to entertainment and music and for a change of the station's name to 8TV.[2] The National Broadcasting Council approved the change of the license in May 2016, and on June 28, 2016, granted a second license to broadcast the Eska TV station in cable networks and via satellite.[12] On September 28, the station was replaced in the first multiplex of digital terrestrial television and via satellite by the music and entertainment station 8TV.[13] The next change of the setting was on October 10, 2016. A setting with dancers was introduced. The beams remained unchanged. On January 2, 2017, the station returned to DVB-T, this time being included in the multiplexes of local stations NTL Radomsko, TVT, Echo 24 and TV Łużyce, covering Silesia and partly the Łódź province.[4] On August 30, 2018, new bars were introduced with the name of the artist and the title of the song. On May 20, 2019, new graphics were introduced.

On May 28, 2019, the station celebrated its 10th anniversary.

On August 8, 2022, the station began broadcasting in HD quality via satellite, replacing the SD version.[14]

Terrestrial broadcasting

Eska TV entered the competition for a place in the MUX-1 of Terrestrial Digital Television.[15] On April 26, 2011, the National Broadcasting Council granted Eska TV a license for terrestrial broadcasting within the NTC.[12][13] The channel was in the first multiplex next to the three main TVP channels (TVP 1 HD, TVP 2 HD and regional television) and three selected in the same competition. From December 19, 2011 to September 28, 2016, Eska TV broadcast terrestrially. On September 28, 2016, it was replaced by the 8TV station.[16] On June 16, 2017, Eska TV returned to the first multiplex, replacing the 8TV channel. The previous place of the Eska TV channel was taken by the Eska TV Extra station.[17] Since March 28, 2022, with the introduction of the DVB-T2 broadcasting standard in the Lower Silesian and Lubuskie Voivodeships, the station has been broadcasting in HD quality.[18] Since June 27, 2022, (only) the HD version is available throughout Poland.
