RTP1 HD was RTP's HDTV channel. In 2008 it broadcast the 2008 Summer Olympics in HD on ZON's cable and satellite platforms. It is also marketed as RTP1 HD, when broadcasting RTP1 programming.
The channel closed on November 28, 2017, after the test period ended and RTP1 got a proper HD simulcast. The channel reopened for a few days after technical problems arose, but was shut down after the proper HD simulcast was able to broadcast once more.
