From Rediffusion to ATV

ATV World's English channel, Rediffusion Television, began as a cable-operated and subscription-based TV service on May 29, 1957. known on-air as Rediffusion Television, and on September 30, 1963, the channel were renamed Rediffusion Television Cantonese Channel and Rediffusion Television English Channel. On February 1, 1967, the channels were renamed RTV-1 and RTV-2 respectively. On June 1, 1973, Rediffusion was granted a free-to-air television broadcasting license for its two television channels. On September 24, 1982, Rediffusion was bought out by the new ATV, and consequently the Cantonese and English-language channel was renamed ATV Gold and ATV Diamond. The channel was again renamed on February 13, 1989, as ATV Home and ATV World.

ATV World broadcasts 24-hour channel with multi-lingual programmes, transmitted in NICAM in analogue version, and multiple AC-3 streams in digital version. While most of programmes are broadcast in English, a few are in either Standard Mandarin, Korean or Japanese without English. It is less popular than English-language rival station rival TVB Pearl, though by a far smaller margin than ATV Home's loss to Cantonese-language rival TVB Jade.
