This channel mainly broadcasts in English (while all of its sister channels mainly broadcast in Cantonese), although programmes in other languages (including Mandarin, Japanese and Korean) are aired in non-peak hours and Traditional Chinese subtitles are available on some programmes. Since 1991, the channel has used NICAMdigital audio (and later, multiple audio tracks via digital terrestrial television) to transmit audio tracks in English and Cantonese when available. The channel began broadcasting in high definition on 28 October 2012.
The schedule of this channel relies heavily on imported programmes, including foreign drama series and movies. Original English-language news and current affairs programmes (such as News at 7:30) and original lifestyle programme Dolce Vita are also available on the channel.
This channel airs current affairs programmes, including Pearl Magazine (to replace both The Pearl Report and Money Magazine in 2018), Money Matters and Straight Talk.
According to the broadcast regulations in Hong Kong, broadcasting 2.5 hours of RTHK programmes on commercial English-language channels every week was required. Before 2017, such requirement was fulfilled by broadcasting The Pulse (news programme) and The Works (art-related programme). These two programmes were no longer aired on this channel after 2017.
Studio 930
At 9:30 PM every night, a film is broadcast on TVB Pearl with a Hong Kong English Dub or with British English Subtitles before News Roundup news programmes.
