Based in Mildura, Victoria, Australia, it is a digital-only Network 10 affiliate run under the company name Mildura Digital Television Pty Ltd, and began broadcasting on 1 January 2006. On 1 July 2016, due to WIN Television becoming the Network Ten affiliate in the region, MDV switched its affiliation to the Nine Network and remained there until 2021.[1] On 1 July 2021, due to WIN Television becoming the Nine Network affiliate in the region, MDV switched back its affiliation to Network 10.
