The opening match, both semi-finals and the final can be viewed at the RAI in Ultra HD quality. The matches are broadcast encrypted. This requires a registered TivùSat smart card to view it. TivùSat is a satellite platform for Italians who pay viewing and listening fees in that country. After purchasing a smart card in combination with a satellite receiver or CI module, you can watch the channel offering at no additional cost. However, in the Netherlands there are points of sale that offer working TivùSat smart cards. To watch the European Football Championship in Ultra HD via RAI, in addition to a working smart card and suitable CI module, a suitable Ultra HD television with satellite reception is also required.
