The invention relates to a transmission system (10) comprising a
transmitter (12) and a receiver (14). The transmitter (12) is arranged
for transmitting a plurality of signals (13), e.g. radio and/or
television signals. The plurality of signals (13) comprise mutually
corresponding signals, e.g. analog and digital signals of the same
channel or program. Alternatively, the mutually corresponding signals may
comprise standard definition and high definition signals of the same
channel or program. The receiver (14) is arranged for receiving at least
part of said plurality of signals (13). The transmitter (12) is arranged
for transmitting information (15) identifying said mutually corresponding
signals and the receiver (14) is arranged for receiving said information
(15). The receiver (14) comprises a selector (16) for selecting on basis
of said information (15) at least one (17) of the mutually corresponding
signals. In the way, the receiver (14) can automatically select the most
appropriate signal (17), e.g. for inclusion in a list of available
channels/programs or for reproduction.
