DR1 ( DR Et ) is the flagship television channel of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) . It became Denmark 's first television station when it began broadcasting in 1951 – at first only for an hour a day three times a week.
Besides its own productions, the channel also broadcasts co-productions with other Nordic countries through Nordvision , as well as a significant amount of programmes from English-speaking countries like the United States , United Kingdom , and Australia , all in the original language with Danish subtitles . Its news programme is called TV Avisen .

Technological advances
Colour TV
Colour television test broadcasts were started in March 1967, with the first large-scale colour broadcasting occurring for the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble , France. [2] DR officially ended "test" transmissions of colour television on April 1, 1970, although it wasn't until 1978 that their last black-and-white television program ( TV Avisen ) switched to colour. [2]
Teletext
On exactly 16 May 1983 at 14:00 CEST, DR launched its first teletext information service, which is still available on all DR channels. [3]
Widescreen TV
In 2004 DR announced future plans for a complete switch from a 4:3 screen ratio to 16:9 widescreen broadcasts. The switch took place in 2006 when DR moved its production facilities from TV-Byen to DR Byen in Copenhagen. The last of DR1's own productions to switch to widescreen was the daily news programme ( TV Avisen ) in November 2006. [4]
Digital TV
At midnight on November 1, 2009 the analogue broadcasts shut down nationwide and DR switched to digital broadcasting. [5] [6]
High-definition
In January 2012, DR1 switched from 576i SD to 720p HD broadcasting. [7]
HbbTV
In April 2014, DR launched its HbbTV service on DR1, enabling on-demand streaming of DR content directly on an internet-connected television. [8]
