The microwave definitely will. I would've thought the TV would as they use the same system as the UK. I think the digital terrestrial TV is the same system in Hungary as in the UK, but there aren't as many channels (about 8 I think). You will have no problem if using an external device connected to the TV using an HDMI input. Obviously you will need to use an adaptor or change the plugs to plug it in. I'm taking a UK TV and a microwave to Hungary when I move, so hoping they will work there too.

You will most likely have to go into the menu and select autotune or something similar. It's unlikely it will tune itself unless the TV was restored to factory settings.

I did read somewhere that the t.v visuals will work fine but the audio will not …. I did bring a t.v with me but have only used it with a dvd player … and the microwave works fine as do all the other appliances I brought over !

A UK TV will work fine - I have a small Toshiba TV from the uk and use it to watch HU digi channels on. I also was brought a HU TV for christmas (2016) which obviously works in hungary and both are still working fine. I have three TV Ariel sockets in my flat (one in the kichen, bedroom and hallway). I took the cupboards out of my hallway and converted it into a TV area/mini lounge for guests.

I think in the old days (don't ask me how I know about them ) with the analogue signal a UK tv had no sound because the sound wave was in a different frequency, but with the age of digital TV I believe it is ok now

Yes, that makes sense … I guess the article I was reading was referring to analogue broadcasts as there is no reason why digital shouldn't work !
