In the new media era, TDM has extended its services by developing multimedia platforms, including the official website (tdm.com.mo), mobile app (TDM App), social media and content-sharing platforms, allowing local and international audience instant access to information about Macau.

TDM transmits eight television channels from mainland China locally, including CCTV-1, CCTV-13, CGTN, CGTN Documentary, Strait Television, Hunan TV World, Southeast Television, and GDTV World.

This section has been translated from the article 澳門廣播電視股份有限公司 in the Chinese Wikipedia, and requires proofreading. (August 2022)

TDM was founded by the colonial Portuguese government in 1982, and as a public company, would first begin evening television broadcasts on May 13, 1984, offering a mix of Portuguese and Cantonese programming between 18:00 and 23:00. It was the first television company to be founded in Macau, with news only being reported via radio broadcasts on stations such as Rádio Macau before they were absorbed into TDM.

The company was sold for 50 million patacas into a public-private partnership in 1988 following corruption scandals and major financial losses of up to 90 to 100 million patacas a year. In 1990, the Portuguese and Cantonese television operations were split into separate channels.^[2]

TDM ceased analogue transmission from 00:00 on 30 June 2023.^[3]
