Until May 2014, WRBU transmitted its primary digital channel in [[480i]] [[standard definition]], making it one of the few network-affiliated stations in the United States that did not transmit an HD feed through its digital signal (internal promotions for the station's website and [[Facebook]] page that were produced during its MyNetworkTV affiliation were downconverted from [[16:9]] to a [[letterboxed]] [[4:3]] format when aired on the station). On March 10, 2014, exactly one month after the Chapman/Ion trust took ownership of the station, WRBU began carrying all five subchannel services carried by Ion Media on its Ion Television owned-and-operated stations; it also resulted in WRBU reuniting with HSN's over-the-air service, which Ion has carried on the DT5 feed of its stations since November 2013. On May 1, 2014, WRBU began transmitting its main feed in [[high-definition television|high definition]] in the network's standard [[720p]] format.

===Analog-to-digital conversion===
WRBU shut down its analog signal, over [[UHF]] channel 46, on January 21, 2009. The station's digital signal continued to broadcasts on its pre-transition UHF channel 47,<ref>{{cite web|title=DTV Tentative Channel Designations for the First and Second Rounds|url=http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf|publisher=[[Federal Communications Commission]]|access-date=March 24, 2012|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130829004251/http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/DA-06-1082A2.pdf|archive-date=August 29, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=List of Broadcast Stations (A-I) Going Digital On February 17, 2009|url=http://tv.about.com/od/hdtv/a/DTVstationlist_2.htm|website=[[About.com]]|access-date=March 24, 2012}}</ref> using [[virtual channel]] 46.
