History
Origins
Digital broadcasting proposals in the 1990s always envisioned
a high-definition service for each network, and to that end,
Nine Network was allocated its own entire
DVB-T multiplex. However, late amendments to the ''
Broadcasting Services Act 1992
The ''Broadcasting Services Act 1992'' (Cth) is an Act of the Parliament of Australia, which broadly covers issues relating to content regulation and media ownership in Australia. The law stipulates what is political advertising and the sp ...

standard definition
Standard-definition television (SDTV, SD, often shortened to standard definition) is a television system which uses a resolution that is not considered to be either high or enhanced definition. "Standard" refers to it being the prevailing sp ...

From the launch of digital TV on 01/01/01, the

analogue services, was heavily simulcasting Nine's standard definition content

Network Ten.
2002 saw the first revenue-generating broadcast in native HD in Australia, with the drama
Judging Amy.
Nine increased its native HD output in the lead-up to the commencement of the HD quota on July 1, 2003, from which point it broadcast a minimum of 1,040 hours of native HD content per year. The largest portion of this was

All 9HD breakaway programming ceased transmission on Sunday 2 August 2009

London Olympics). This removed the HD simulcast of Channel Nine entirely to allow a third channel to fit on Nine's
DVB-T multiplex (due to technical and regulatory limitations). As a result, Nine lost the majority of its youth, news and comedy content in HD, but also screened female, crime and lifestyle content on its only HD facility.
For the purposes of some sport such as cricket, GEM was still used on an occasional basis to broadcast HD under the
Wide World of Sports brand, though not necessarily as a simulcast with Nine. As such, this was generally limited to events outside of

Identity
Originally the logo was only displayed in place of the standard
Nine Network logo when native HD programming replaced
upscaled material, and switched from "HDTV" to "HIGH DEFINITION" in 2003. When the network dropped the dots from their logo, a more custom design was deployed. When 9HD's breakaway service was launched in 2008, the logo became a permanent fixture even on upscaled material, and used the Nine Network's nine dot logo with "HD" in a circle beside the numeral 9. The on-air look featured a dark look inside one of the 3D discs used in the 2008 logo. The slogan accompanying 9HD promotions was ''"You're Watching 9HD"'', which was replaced by ''" Choose Nine"'' and ''"Welcome Home"'', the same slogan as the primary channel, after breakaway programming ceased on 2 August 2009. An updated logo introduced when broadcast recommenced on 26 November 2015, accompanied by the slogan ''"Crystal Clear"''.
