History
[edit]Before the launch of the channel, Hungary, Romania and Moldova received the Polish feed of Cartoon Network on 30 September 2002, broadcasting in Polish, Hungarian, Romanian and English.
On 4 January 2008, the channel started broadcasting 24 hours a day in Romania.[4] Initially only TV provider Dolce offered the 24h feed. A CEE feed specifically for Romania and Hungary was launched, replacing Cartoon Network Poland on 1 October 2008.
On 1 April 2015, the channel started broadcasting 24 hours a day in Hungary.
Czechia and Slovakia used to receive this feed in English. However, on 20 September 2017, a Czech audio track was added to the channel in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.[5] That same year, on 20 October, Cartoon Network started broadcasting 24 hours a day.
On 26 February 2018, the channel launched a high-definition feed.[6] Later, on 15 October, Cartoon Network changed its aspect ratio from 4:3 to 16:9.[citation needed]
