The station airs community produced programming at no cost, and loans video equipment to community members and organizations, also providing production and post-production advice and support.
Belfast Community TV programs can be viewed on the local cable television system on channel 1301. The cable company currently serving the Belfast Community is Spectrum.[Click the link at the end of this page for more information.]
Many of the Belfast Community TV programs are archived at Vimeo and are available for on line, or on demand, viewing. More and more people are watching on demand from their Smart TV’s, Roku boxes, computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones.
If you are watching Belfast Community Media ON DEMAND, the picture will be in high definition. That means the picture will look sharp and clear if you are watching on a large screen, high definition TV.
When a show is broadcast at low definition, the picture may look fuzzy and out of focus on a high definition TV. Spectrum Cable broadcasts the public service channels only at low definition.
The Belfast Community Media station is primarily supported with an annual grant from the City of Belfast. It also relies upon donations from community businesses and individuals.
Insight Productions is a video production company based in Belfast, Maine. Owner, Ned Lightner, produces videos such as weddings, advertisements, documentaries, music videos and web programs.
