NRJ Hits TV

NRJ Hits TV is Belgium's first and only television channel broadcasting non-stop video clips from French, Belgian and international artists 24/7. It was launched in 2014 as an internet channel, but went on cable/satellite on 29 March 2016. The promise is "Hit Music Only".

In fact, on the plan, Marco Leulier, the channel's program director, found that it was not necessary to broadcast all day, every day music videos only. Formerly, there was a plan of creating an MyNRJ-style block on NRJ Hits TV, but this was later removed.

The channel has three fundamentals:
* 100% Music: A strong promise of musical exclusively programming. This isn't the playlist on the NRJ radio station. The sequences of the clips are mixed to ensure viewers have the best listening experience.
* 100% Hits: A program schedule largely emphasizes on hit music with a focus on recently released songs.
* Big events: NRJ Hits TV covers every NRJ-produced musical events across the world.

Here is a list of programmes broadcast on the channel until 24 August 2017:
* ''Morning Hit'': Daily 7–9am.
