A complementary study was made between 26 March and 9 April 1991 by two experts from TDF to install transmitters in the sites recommended by the ITU, not only for television, but also for FM radio.
France also supplied TVR with technical equipment and the possibility of joint Franco-Rwandan co-productions, as well as French programming provided by CFI.
The joint goals set up that 60% (40% in the initial phase) of the output was produced in Rwanda with the rest coming from overseas.
At launch time, 70% of its programming was local, with the remaining output coming from foreign sources (films, football matches, international news offered from CFI and DW).
The main studio, still under construction before the Hutu-Tutsi war started, had finished, but putting the Mount Jari station operational had to be rebuilt, at a cost of US$3 million.
American support also helped fill in the void in the technical sector, as the station had lost its resources due to the war.

In addition, RTV announced an outreach plan for the World Cup, enabling its broadcast to 10,000 viewers in fourteen large screens across Rwanda.
