  6. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  7. &lt;i&gt;Digital Broadcast Vendor News&lt;/i&gt; notes yet another move by a subscription channel, Mumbai-based, &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="https://hotstar.com/channels/star-utsav" target="_blank"&gt;Star Utsav&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt; from June 10, 2020 has 'without pay' distribution on &lt;i&gt;Door Darshan&lt;/i&gt;'s &lt;b&gt;DD Free Dish platform&lt;/b&gt;. Its Hindi language offerings cover the gambit of drama genres in prime time.&amp;nbsp; Anchoring the evening is &lt;b&gt;Kasautii Zindagii Kay&lt;/b&gt; at 1900hrs, &lt;b&gt;Mahabharat&lt;/b&gt; at 2000hrs and &lt;b&gt;Nazar&lt;/b&gt; at 2300.&lt;/div&gt;
  8. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  9. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  10. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  11. Star Utsav believes in specialising in dramas covering themes such as&amp;nbsp; mythology, romance, and fantasy. Such dramas are aimed for family friendly viewing.&lt;/div&gt;
  12. &lt;br /&gt;
  13. &lt;i&gt;Just a heads up that Star Utsav is part of the old Fox/Star stable now under the 'Walt Disney Company India' banner.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
  14. &lt;br /&gt;
  15. &lt;h4 style="text-align: left;"&gt;
  16. Star Utsav Channel's &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Utsav" target="_blank"&gt;history&lt;/a&gt; at a glance&lt;/h4&gt;
  17. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  18. Star Utsav was riginally launched in June 2004. The Star Utsav channel was converted into a Pay TV channel in August 2015. A foray into the UK market 2016-2018 proved unsuccessful after a dismal ratings performance.

  26. &lt;i&gt;Digital Broadcast Vendor News&lt;/i&gt; received from &lt;b&gt;Bango plc&lt;/b&gt;, the major mobile commerce player of Cambridge, England&amp;nbsp; that it had launched its Direct Carrier Billing Platform on &lt;b&gt;SUN Mobile in Hong Kong&lt;/b&gt; (May 22, 2020). The strength of &lt;a href="https://bangoinvestor.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Bango&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;is its data processing that typically increases revenue by 20-40 percent, with some established operators achieving growth of more than 70 percent. It is not only in Hong Kong, but the Bango roll out has also been ain two other diverse mobile operators and locations, Entel in Peru and MTN in South Africa - all in a short space of time.&amp;nbsp; This means that those phone companies' subscribers can now pay for a massive array of content and services in &lt;i&gt;Google Play&lt;/i&gt; and charging the cost to their phone bill, all powered by the &lt;i&gt;Bango Platform &lt;/i&gt;a very proud British venture.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  27. &lt;br /&gt;

  29. What makes Bango a market leader in Direct Carrier Billing?&lt;/h4&gt;
  30. &lt;br /&gt;
  31. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  32. Pre and post-paid subscribers simply click-to-buy using carrier billing for instant access to their favorite games, music, movies and more. Interesting fact mentioned on tango.com - 80% of the highest spenders in &lt;b&gt;Taiwan &lt;/b&gt;(lookalike audience) made in-app payment for the products and services in which they were engaging.&lt;/div&gt;

  42. &lt;blockquote class="tr_bq"&gt;
  43. "Ever more operators across the world standardize on the Bango platform to bring mobile commerce experiences to their customers."&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  44. &lt;br /&gt;
  45. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  46. Mr Larbey says: "In addition to activating payments in Google Play and other app stores, Bango technology enables operators to offer third-party products bundled with their customer plans or marketed directly to their customers through Facebook and other platforms."&lt;/div&gt;
  47. &lt;br /&gt;
  48. To ensure continuous revenue growth from carrier billing across these new routes, Bango technology will be applied to increase payment success, user acquisition and engagement.&lt;br /&gt;
  49. &lt;br /&gt;
  50. &lt;br /&gt;
  51. &lt;br /&gt;
  52. &lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  53. Google Play is not the only collaborator with Bango. Netflix in Mexico already has a massive project with Bango in Mexico. The British company, established in 1999 is publicly listed on the London AIM exchange. The company is firmly entrenched with global merchant players including Amazon, Google and Microsoft. Bango was chosen by Youtube in November 2019 to handle the billing for YT's subscription based monthly &lt;i&gt;TV package&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;

We have worked extensively to understand the needs of our consumers and have sharpened our insights based on what will appeal to them.

  116. ShemarooTV joins approximately 155 other FTA channels on the iCAS set top box satellite reception system that include approx 88 MPEG-2 channels, 17 MPEG-4/HD channels, and 50 educational TV channels. Broken down, there are 80 SD MPEG-2 TV channels and 18 SD MPEG-4 channels apart from 40 radio channels.&lt;/div&gt;

  120. Backgrounder: &lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;Doordarshan's DD Free Dish is simply a Direct to Home (DTH) free of subscription service. Controlling licensing authority, Prasar Bharati (PB) approved Indian manufacturers to produce new Indian Conditional access system (iCAS) encrypted set-top boxes specifically for DD Freedish. PB stresses that all channels on the platform have to be free to air and free of subscription fees. Impressive was the 2003 move by the then national government to make DD Sports channel available to the whole country that broke a subscription monopoly holding the rights to Indian Cricket. DD Sports is freely available on DD Freedish. The satellite used in Ku-Band configuration is INSAT-4B.&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

  153. &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;helveticaneue&amp;quot;; font-size: 12px;"&gt;According to CEO Katial the ZEE5 app on the OTT platform has become a 'super app’ by delivering content in 12 Indian languages to being available across the spectrum of devices to launching new product offerings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;helveticaneue&amp;quot;;"&gt;The languages: English, Hindi, Bengali, Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, Bhojpuri, Gujarati, Odia and Punjabi.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  159. &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;helveticaneue&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Dhal has a hard act to follow in Taranjeet Singh who played a key role in setting up the advertising revenue stream and played an instrumental role in framing the architecture of the industry’s first Ad Stack. During his tenure, he helped build and drive the sales and sales support teams of ZEE5 India according to Katial.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  165. &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;helveticaneue&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Rajeev Dhal has a 20 year career under his belt&amp;nbsp; and has worked in the leadership position across a wide range of media and consumer internet companies. He came from a similar role at SHAREit having established teams and revenue across India, South East Asia, Middle East and Africa. In his tenure at ShareIt, he claims there was never a need for ShareIt to advertise as the brand fulfilled an online need to deliver Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for brands &amp;amp; advertisers that are way beyond branding &amp;amp; engagement across a universe of an Indian 400 million user base.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  183. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
  184. &lt;/i&gt; &lt;i&gt;e-broadcastnewsasia&lt;/i&gt; has learnt that &lt;b&gt;Yang Sung-dong&lt;/b&gt; was officially appointed as Chief Executive of the Korean national broadcaster, #&lt;b&gt;KBS&lt;/b&gt; - the Korean Broadcasting System in Seoul on April 6, 2018.&lt;br /&gt;
  185. &lt;br /&gt;
  186. While the CEO’s role has traditionally been under strong political direction, Mr Yang however, was the first recommendation under a newly formed &lt;i&gt;Ad Hoc Public Advisory Group&lt;/i&gt;, set up for the purpose of selecting KBS Presidents and CEOs.&lt;br /&gt;
  187. &lt;br /&gt;
  188. The Ad Hoc Group consists solely of 142 members of the public (essentially KBS viewers). They thoroughly reviewed Yang’s vision for public broadcasting. These included scrutinising the future KBS strategies being planned.&lt;br /&gt;
  189. &lt;br /&gt;
  190. The Group handled the process through a series of presentations, panel discussions and question and answer periods held by the group.&lt;br /&gt;
  191. &lt;br /&gt;
  192. At Mr Yang’s formal inauguration event on April 9, 2018, he re-asserted key points of his team’s direction:&lt;br /&gt;
  193. 1. It would bring commitment to recreating KBS as the most trusted media organization in the country.&lt;br /&gt;
  194. 2. It would bring capable young KBS staff members into the decision making process.&lt;br /&gt;
  195. 3. As team head, Mr Yang affirmed to maintain KBS’ reputation of full editorial independence, and to remain free from political influence.&lt;br /&gt;
  196. &lt;br /&gt;
  197. If Yang Sung-dong upholds his pledges under a Korean peninsula possibly about to be unified, this will be regarded as masterful leadership.&lt;br /&gt;
  198. &lt;br /&gt;
  199. So, if you know Mr Yang, let him know of your support in his appointment in his powerful role.&lt;br /&gt;

  204. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  205. &lt;i&gt;Digital Broadcast | Vendor News Asia&lt;/i&gt; points to the highlights of a new market report "&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;Broadcast Equipment Market to 2021&lt;/b&gt;" &amp;nbsp;that indicates HD transition is a driving force across multi-screen devices and support equipment. The report was issued on December 12, 2016 by SBWire on behalf of&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="http://www.persistencemarketresearch.com/toc/3547"&gt;&lt;span class="s1"&gt;persistencemarketresearch.com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  206. &lt;div class="p1"&gt;
  207. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  208. &lt;div class="p1"&gt;
  209. &lt;span style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Summary Highlights as follows:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  210. &lt;blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: left;"&gt;
  211. &lt;i&gt;"Asia Pacific is expected to represent a new growth area in the year to come due emerging economies, increasing awareness among the people about internet browsing and higher use of electronic items such as television, smartphones and tablets. Moreover, Asian countries such as India and China are highly fragmented by content type, region type and size of broadcasters."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  212. &lt;div class="p2"&gt;
  213. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  214. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  215. &lt;i&gt;The &lt;a href="http://www.persistencemarketresearch.com/market-research/broadcasting-equipment-market.asp"&gt;&lt;span class="s1"&gt;broadcast equipment market&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is driven by various factors such as transition from analog to digital broadcasting, increasing focus on production automation, growing acceptance of HD worldwide and rising number of digital channels. Moreover, content requirement at many places, increasing use of broadcasting equipment in sports broadcasting, worship places, news production and corporate conferences are also the factors driving the growth of broadcasting equipment at some extent.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  216. &lt;div class="p2" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  217. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  218. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  219. &lt;i&gt;One of the key factors contributing to the market growth is the increasing the demand for HD programming and new ways to circulate the content such as internet protocol television (IPTV) and mobile TV are quickly developing and deploying. Moreover, the broadcasting equipment market has also been witnessing the rising inclination of the people towards multi-screen services. Enforcement of government regulations regarding digitalization is also expected to drive the market.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  220. &lt;div class="p2" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  221. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  222. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  223. &lt;i&gt;In addition with the huge growth in the number of smartphones and tablets, the growth opportunities of video services have increased considerably in recent years. This is due to the fact that in recent times, there is an increasing habit among the customer for viewing movie, shows and sports through their mobile phones without compromising about the quality of the services.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  224. &lt;div class="p2" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  225. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  226. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  227. &lt;i&gt;However inconsistency in content distribution, higher price of broadcasting equipment such as cameras, cables, audio video mixers huge capital cost needed while installing new broadcast facility and lack of standardized method in content distribution are some of the factors which are restraining the broadcasting equipment market. Also competition among the vendors in the global broadcasting equipment market has increased considerably. This is due to the fall in price and entry of new players in the market which is further restraining the growth of the broadcasting equipment market.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  228. &lt;div class="p2" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  229. &lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  230. &lt;div class="p1" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;
  231. &lt;i&gt;There is a worldwide inclination towards the software based solutions, which are high on speed and can be IP connected so that upgrading may be possible with little hardware replacement. North America and Europe are expected to continue leading the market owing to the adoption of upgraded technology and more of the company's involvement in research and development programs to keep peace with rivals. Asia Pacific is expected to represent a new growth area in the year to come due emerging economies, increasing awareness among the people about internet browsing and higher use of electronic items such as television, smartphones and tablets. Moreover, Asian countries such as India and China are highly fragmented by content type, region type and size of broadcasters.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The latter has now enhanced its content by adding a focus on soccer, Thai's favourite sport by far for both men and women.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

The significance of the deal is that Saraish Radio serves Uzbek speaking audiences in the &lt;i&gt;Jowzjan&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Sar-e Pol&lt;/i&gt; provinces in north-western Afghanistan. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

It is also &lt;/span&gt;the single most important &lt;u&gt;Uzbek&amp;nbsp;&lt;/u&gt;dominated city in all of Afghanistan. The city and region's inhabitants reflect the Silk Road '&lt;i&gt;Arab&lt;/i&gt;' heritage yet where most of the region is multi-lingual in the &lt;i&gt;Persian&lt;/i&gt; languages. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

  413. &lt;br /&gt;
  414. "Taiwan officially completed its transition to
  415. &lt;i&gt;digital TV&lt;/i&gt; broadcasting on June 30, 2012, switching off its analog signals for
  416. the last time.&lt;br /&gt;
  417. &lt;div style="margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px;"&gt;
  418. &lt;div class="divlistdiv" id="divlist0"&gt;
  419. &lt;br /&gt;
  420. It was the final step in a four-phase
  421. process that began on May 7. Northern Taiwan was the last area to make
  422. the transition from analog to fully digital wireless TV broadcasting.&lt;br /&gt;
  423. &lt;br /&gt;
  424. At
  425. a ceremony in Taipei, Taiwan's Premier &lt;b&gt;Sean Chen&lt;/b&gt; said &lt;b&gt;the era of digital and
  426. high-definition TV had come.&lt;/b&gt; He also said the next step would be to
  427. develop content for digital TV.&lt;br /&gt;
  428. &lt;br /&gt;
  429. Chairwoman of the National
  430. Communications Committee, Ms Su Herng, was also present at the ceremony.
  431. She said turning to digital TV is a global trend, adding that European
  432. countries including Switzerland and Germany have already completed the
  433. transition. She also said the analog spectrum can now be used to improve
  434. Taiwan's broadband Internet services."&lt;br /&gt;
  435. &lt;br /&gt;
  436. There are high hopes for greater creativity from the three commercial broadcasters, TTV, CTV and CTS.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;

  446. - Move to Benefit Audio and Video Equipment Manufacturers&lt;/span&gt;
  447. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;
  448. Digital Broadcast Vendor News Asia (DBVNA)&lt;/span&gt; has been following India's development of its terrestrial digital broadcasting under the country's 11th Five Year Plan (2007-2012).  On April 8, 2010 the Cabinet Committee on Infrastructure (CCI) approved proposals from the Ministry of Broadcasting for Doordarshan (TV) and Akashvani (All India Radio) to digitise its transmitter networks, and studio output.
  449.  
  450. The move costing Rs 1,540 crore (nearly US$350 million) is to help maintain the state radio and TV broadcasters leading role in light of increasing challenges from the private broadcasters. This move will likely prove a true bonanza for digital broadcast equipment manufacturers.
  451. The &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Minister for Information and Broadcasting Minister, Ms Ambika Soni&lt;/span&gt; said that the expansion program was to bring people in the remotest regions of the country more program choice and highest quality of transmission, including HDTV.  Some 60 per cent of the budget would go to AIR and the rest to DD. DD would see 40 new digital transmitters installed linked by satellite that would increase the choice from eight DD channels to 10 for most viewers.
  452.  
  453. The liberalization of commercial radio has reached Phase III - bringing radio to towns with populations of around 100,000 population. Digital Broadcast Vendor News Asia notes that Minister Ambika sees Radio Phase III as posing a serious challenge to the current role of AIR in these areas/markets.  This has prompted more urgent development of the Akashvani radio network to face head on the new market circumstances. The spending under the 11th Plan will involve replacement of Medium Wave transmitters with digital transmitters, digitalisation of studio operations and network links, establishment of regional digital archives and further newsroom automation.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/3345391901216995788/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2010/04/india-11th-plan-spends-us350m-on-radio.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/3345391901216995788" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/3345391901216995788" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2010/04/india-11th-plan-spends-us350m-on-radio.html" rel="alternate" title="India:: 11th Plan Spends US$350m on Radio and TV Networks" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-1621112853585202612</id><published>2010-04-08T12:41:00.002+08:00</published><updated>2010-04-08T12:42:57.469+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dbvna"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="HD"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="high definition"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="IMS Research"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="IPTV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="last mile IP"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="People's Republic of China"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="PRC"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="SD"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="set-top boxes"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="standard definition"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="STB"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="video networks"/><title type="text">PRC Research on Cable Platform Shows IP Driven Growth in Domestic Demand</title><content type="html">&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (DBVNA&lt;/span&gt;) has learnt that latest IP research in the People's Republic of China (PRC) shows that demand for new TV services on its cable platform is driving increased replacement of standard definition (SD) &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;"1-way set-top boxes"&lt;/span&gt; with high definition (HD) &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;"cable+IP 2-way set-top boxes".&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br&gt;
  454.  
  455. Authors of an upcoming report, &lt;a href="http://www.imsresearch.com/"&gt;IMS Research&lt;/a&gt;  predicts that more than half of cable set-top boxes  (STB's) produced for  the Chinese PRC domestic market by the end of 2011 will be in HD as a result of government initiatives and increased competition with other platforms.&lt;br&gt;  
  456. Recent directives by the Beijing Central Government for cable TV operators to converge voice and video networks has resulted in a boom for cable operators with the IP upgrades.&lt;br&gt;
  457.  
  458. The IMS Research news release to Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (DBVNA) stated that in some urban areas, 2-way  cable networks utilize last mile IP and use cable set-top boxes with an IP back channel.
  459.  
  460. In general, in major urban areas such as Shanghai and Beijing, cable operators compete with IPTV services where the current business model lacks HD content and high bandwidth, and it is hoped that greater availability of HD content and a “catch-up TV” mentality will encourage further digitization and customer retention.
  461. “Conversion of China’s cable infrastructure to 2-way, IP-based, HD-capable networks will occur gradually over many years,” emphasizes analyst IMS Research, Anna Maxbauer, co-author of an upcoming report: &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;The World Market for Digital Set-top Boxes &amp; iDTVs – 2010 Edition. &lt;/span&gt;
  462.  
  463. Ms Maxbauer noted that the costs of infrastructure and equipment upgrades will likely fall to operators and the government. Why? Because: "most consumers are interested in new features but are unwilling to pay extra for them,”   she says.
  464. DBVNA does not have a business connection nor paid by IMS Research, which is a UK-based research house and a consultancy for a wide range of global electronics markets with offices in  Austin, Texas and Shanghai, China.  The PRC research above was issued from IMS Research in Austin, Texas.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/1621112853585202612/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2010/04/prc-research-on-cable-platform-shows-ip.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/1621112853585202612" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/1621112853585202612" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2010/04/prc-research-on-cable-platform-shows-ip.html" rel="alternate" title="PRC Research on Cable Platform Shows IP Driven Growth in Domestic Demand" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-2449150677586932430</id><published>2009-12-27T22:18:00.007+08:00</published><updated>2009-12-27T22:30:50.139+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="caput"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcasters"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="India Ministry of Information and Broadcasting"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Indian"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="satellite radio"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="subscribers"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Vendor News"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="WorldSpace India"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="WorldSpace receivers"/><title type="text">Satellite Radio : WorldSpace India Caput Finished Dec31</title><content type="html">&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;WorldSpace India: Caput Finished December 31&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
  465.  
  466. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia&lt;/span&gt; has learned that the final nail in the WorldSpace coffin may have been hammered home in India. There the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (I&amp;B) ministry is unlikely to proceed with a satellite radio policy. Why? Because &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Worldspace India&lt;/span&gt; has announced that it is to close its operations in the country from December 31.
  467.  
  468. India was the bright spot in the worldwide network of the pioneer of satellite radio with its own network of satellites.  WorldSpace, which started its service in India in the year 2000,  was operating with a wink and a nod from the Indian authorities.  Some  4.5 Lakh in subscribers (450,000) in India will be affected by the abrupt announcement.
  469.  
  470. Worldspace India, representing 95 per cent of WorldSpace's worldwide subscriber base was financed by its United States parent company WorldSpace Inc which has been under bankruptcy protection since October 2008.
  471.  
  472. I am not sure whether the India announcement is a legal move prior to its operations being taken over by another broadcast outfit - thought to be Liberty Media Corporation which is thought to be buying many of the worldwide assets of WorldSpace Inc (but not India)  for just US$18 million. Such a deal is likely to include the WorldSpace satellites and their support equipment.
  473.  
  474. Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia notes that there are three obviously negative outcomes from WorldSpace India's decision.
  475.  
  476. - 1. Some 300 local employees located in Bangalore have lost their jobs.&lt;br&gt;
  477. - 2. The customized WorldSpace receivers may well go to waste. And,&lt;br&gt;
  478. - 3. No subscription refunds. In the WorldSpace main website, there is the announcement that says that the investor buying WorldSpace assets is not including India operations. The notice advises subscribers in India that they may have recourse to get a refund from US bankruptcy proceedings. Details....&lt;a href="http://www.worldspace.com/index_wsmsg.html"&gt;http://www.worldspace.com/index_wsmsg.html&lt;/a&gt; say that subscription money paid by Indian customers is not being refunded. The sums involved are likely to be too small to begin with to make it worthwhile for subscribers to follow up in another jurisdiction half way around the world.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/2449150677586932430/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2009/12/satellite-radio-worldspace-india-caput.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/2449150677586932430" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/2449150677586932430" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2009/12/satellite-radio-worldspace-india-caput.html" rel="alternate" title="Satellite Radio : WorldSpace India Caput Finished Dec31" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-7947693899755472788</id><published>2009-12-13T19:11:00.007+08:00</published><updated>2009-12-13T19:42:43.226+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcasters"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="IT"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="News"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="radio"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Radio and Electronics Association of Vietnam"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="research"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="REV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Telecommunications"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vendor"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Vietnam"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="VOV"/><title type="text">Vietnam :: REV Boosts IT Growth At Voice of Vietnam</title><content type="html">&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHrpIfELfUjzzVfrcWprhSeFWYO61O5ZuuVExGD7bWYHPFxbfbCgMEIQHNnWDCltz3NxETJY_S5ReZxCsDX_xuHWGWiEaTo_Ej6_18D_WCOe3KWgG-t72lHdQXMzdthrzNhVexBg/s1600-h/revlogo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 193px; height: 193px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHrpIfELfUjzzVfrcWprhSeFWYO61O5ZuuVExGD7bWYHPFxbfbCgMEIQHNnWDCltz3NxETJY_S5ReZxCsDX_xuHWGWiEaTo_Ej6_18D_WCOe3KWgG-t72lHdQXMzdthrzNhVexBg/s320/revlogo.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5414683788285339618" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
  479. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Digital Broadcasters Vendor News&lt;/span&gt; can report that as a result of deliberations at the fifth congress of the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Radio and Electronics Association of Vietnam (REV)&lt;/span&gt; a Five Year program of advancement in IT and telecommunications has been formulated. The program is to widen the scope and effectiveness into new technology research to include more universities across Vietnam and at the grass roots level. This move is presumably to tap into bright young talent across the whole spectrum of new technologies to the benefit of the IT and broadcast infrastructure. Two specific moves bode well for the future in tightly structured Vietnam. These are: to improve the quality of training  and increase international co-operation.  The current chairman of the Radio and Electronics Association of Vietnam (REV) is Nguyen Van Ngo. At the congress, the deputy general director of Radio the Voice of Vietnam (VOV), &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Ms Hoang Minh Nguyet&lt;/span&gt;, acknowledged the active contribution by professors and doctors who help VOV research and apply advanced technologies. The REV/VOV developments should be positive news if you have related business with Vietnam and &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Voice of Vietnam Radio and TV&lt;/span&gt; and state telecoms.

At a special ceremony at the &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Digital Media Fair 2009&lt;/span&gt; in COEX, Seoul on December 10, contributors to the development of new media were awarded prizes. Agreements were signed also on the standardization of IPTV service and for the provision of traffic information to the Seoul Metropolitan Government.

The media and IPTV industry specialists were at the event.
  487.  
  488. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Diary Date :&lt;/span&gt;It is worthwhile noting the Korea Communications Commission  plans to hold exhibitions and conferences each year around the anniversary of the launch of the IPTV service to chart the present and future course of digital media, including IPTV in South Korea.

The deal was co-ordinated through Head of BBC Central Asia and Caucasus Service, &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Hamid Ismailov&lt;/span&gt; and Business Development Manager, West Asia, BBC World Service, &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Gemma Hayman&lt;/span&gt;. Kyrgyz politics keep the BBC team on its toes, as it sways between the West and Russian influences. It was of course a republic in the days of the old Soviet Union. BBC Kyrgyz has a 15 year track record with KNTR, with programming output being broadcast over KNTR FM radio: 103.7 FM (Bishkek); 102.2 FM (Batken) and 106.3 FM (Kerben); and nationwide on Kyrgyz State Radio's Channel 1.

  495. UK's &lt;a href="http://www.solid-state-logic.com/"&gt;Solid State Logic&lt;/a&gt; (SSL) has informed Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (DBVNA) that the Middle East's &lt;a href="http://www.alarabiya.net/english.html"&gt;Al-Arabiya satellite TV news channel&lt;/a&gt; in Dubai has installed the SSL C200 HD digital sound console in the technical upgrade from analog to digital audio. Al-Arabiya part of the &lt;a href="http://www.mbc.net/english/"&gt;MBC Group of companies&lt;/a&gt;.
  496.  
  497. The C200 HD console will substantially increase the number of input channels in Al-Arabiya's main news gallery. According to an SSL news release, Basheer Saad, News Channel Audio Supervisor at the MBC Group liked the C200 HD console for its analog style layout providing nearly instantaneous access to multiple controls, important for live-on-air mixing which allows audio engineers to focus on the mix rather than staring at a waveform on a screen.
  498. &lt;a href="http://www.solid-state-logic.com"&gt;Solid State Logic&lt;/a&gt; Area Sales Manager, Paul Lindsay, said that in the C200 HD, Al-Arabiya had chosen a  robust broadcast console appropriate to their needs.
  499. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;
  500. Al-Arabiya satellite TV channel&lt;/span&gt; continues to be one of dominant free-to-air, pan-Arab, news and entertainment broadcasters, reaching more than 150 million viewers in the Arabic Diaspora worldwide.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/3940963292081251339/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2009/01/digital-broadcast-al-arabiya-installs.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/3940963292081251339" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/3940963292081251339" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2009/01/digital-broadcast-al-arabiya-installs.html" rel="alternate" title="Digital Broadcast | Al-Arabiya Installs SSL C200 Audio Console" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEiaoccD03PGhgpVr5nOWwOwjIEYcFfk65NPeb_Guu1CSI5w0pwZC6fDbSC0lNM1xv5kQh3XngqGKIzNX-z-hCDgp2u799omHekBifqB3OcHSQ3XCEFioEXq2IonqWnyqkxvOB9A/s72-c/mbcnet_logo.gif" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-4464579863850285795</id><published>2008-10-19T11:33:00.006+08:00</published><updated>2008-10-19T12:23:26.476+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="2010"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Asia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcasters"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FIFA"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Freeview"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="new zealand"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="News"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="pay-TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Prime TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sbs"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="SKY"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Sky NZ"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="tvnz"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vendor"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="World Cup Soccer"/><title type="text">World Cup 2010 | TVNZ and Sky Confirm Sports TV Deal</title><content type="html">Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (DBVNA) e-mail inbox on October 10 received the official notice that the two New Zealand rivals,  pay-TV operator, &lt;a href="http://www.skytv.co.nz"&gt;SKY Television&lt;/a&gt; and national broadcaster, &lt;a href="http://www.tvnz.co.nz"&gt;TVNZ&lt;/a&gt; are linking up for the third time over World Cup Soccer, this time  in 2010.  This will be under a programming sub-contract agreement with Australasian rights holder, SBS.
  501.  
  502. The deal is split thus: SKY NZ will provide full LIVE coverage from hosts, South Africa. The coverage includes also all the FIFA events leading up to the 2010 World Cup, including the Women's Under 17 World Cup which is being hosted in New Zealand later this month (October 2008) with SKY as the "host broadcaster" for the event. Every match in the Women's Under 17s will screen live on SKY with TVNZ showing the NZ games and the final delayed.
  503.  
  504. Further events include the Women's Under 20 World Cup upcoming in November (including the NZ Under 20 team), and the Men's Under 17 and Under 20 World Cup events, along with the Confederations Cup through 2009, and the Women's Under 17 and Under 20 events in 2010.
  505.  
  506. The SKY NZ/TVNZ rivals trumpet the World Cup deal as ensuring comprehensive (nigh on complete) coverage for New Zealand TV viewers.
  507.  
  508. TVNZ's part of the programming pie will include eleven LIVE matches on TV ONE during the 2010 World Cup, plus daily highlights from all other games.  
  509.  
  510. The prized 11 live games will be The Opening Match, then 4 matches from Round 2, 2 of the 4  quarter finals, both Semi's, the Final and the runner up 3rd and 4th Place event.
  511.  
  512. TVNZ coverage does not end there. The 11 Games above will be re-run on the TVNZ Sport Extra channel on the Freeview platform, as well as LIVE coverage of an additional eleven games and highlights packages from all other matches.  
  513.  
  514. DBVNA can't believe it. In the world of political niceties, FIFA Secretary General Jérôme Valcke positively 'enthused' over the New Zealand deal describing TVNZ and SKY NZ as "absolute leading broadcasters in New Zealand". Actually, who else could take on World Cup in the country? The two are the only TV players anyway with the resources (Sky also owns Prime TV) in the relatively small NZ market.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/4464579863850285795/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/10/world-cup-2010-tvnz-and-sky-confirm.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/4464579863850285795" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/4464579863850285795" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/10/world-cup-2010-tvnz-and-sky-confirm.html" rel="alternate" title="World Cup 2010 | TVNZ and Sky Confirm Sports TV Deal" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-2698960315056172161</id><published>2008-09-01T06:11:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-09-01T06:27:25.038+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term=") Lebanon"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Al Aan"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Arabsat"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dbvna"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcaster"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dubai"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Dubai Media City"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Imad Jomaa"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Ipsos"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Jordan"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Nilesat"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Promo Media"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="satellite"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Syria"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Zoya Sakr"/><title type="text">Digital TV | Promo Media Helps Al Aan Dubai in Pan Arab Expansion</title><content type="html">&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5ndUchtBndgLY4bFu9bAoFz34oWeLec8jxFBSZPa-RJmP5uW0VOVvMKl28rBHfpLkTwphhdNSp4GQfavMMgro7czntuUuOIOTf3bCs3nD1WE8hLSVVMSZDWJLl1-zfQU-9PHiIg/s1600-h/Zoya+Sakr.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5ndUchtBndgLY4bFu9bAoFz34oWeLec8jxFBSZPa-RJmP5uW0VOVvMKl28rBHfpLkTwphhdNSp4GQfavMMgro7czntuUuOIOTf3bCs3nD1WE8hLSVVMSZDWJLl1-zfQU-9PHiIg/s320/Zoya+Sakr.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5240809106694913618" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
  515. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Zoya Sakr,&lt;/span&gt; Head of Sales and Marketing at &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Al Aan TV,&lt;/span&gt; Dubai &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;(left)&lt;/span&gt;has informed Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;(DBVNA)&lt;/span&gt; that  &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Promo Media&lt;/span&gt; of Beirut has been appointed Al Aan's on-air advertising and marketing representative for &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Lebanon, Syria and Jordan.&lt;/span&gt; Sakr see this as a pan-Arab springboard in the fast growing satellite TV arena. Awareness levels of the Al Aan TV channel have increased remarkably in the region since its establishment in 2006. &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Imad Jomaa,&lt;/span&gt; Chairman of Promo Media said “viewers showed a markedly high preference for Al Aan TV content, with programs offering original programming presented in an innovative infotainment format. We are confident of representing the channel as this will lead certainly to mutual success”.
  516. Al Aan's content is based on constant research to identify and respond to the changing desires of the regional audience.  The unique infotainment format is a first for the region. It means the viewer can benefit from the daily contact with the channel resulting in a pleasurable viewing experience.
  517. A recent study by Market Research firm, &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Ipsos&lt;/span&gt; showed that viewership of the channel has increased 80% from last year.  
  518. DBVNA notes that Al Aan TV is a pan-Arab satellite TV broadcaster based in  &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Dubai Media City.&lt;/span&gt; Distribution is by &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Arabsat or Nilesat.&lt;/span&gt;  Al Aan targets the needs and aspirations of a young, dynamic and modern family audience &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;with emphasis on the female viewer segment&lt;/span&gt; which shows strong support to the channel's programming approach. Al Aan TV website is in Arabic &lt;a href="http://www.alaan.tv/sub.aspx?ID=270&amp;MID=113"&gt;with a boiler plate page in English.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/2698960315056172161/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/09/digital-tv-promo-media-helps-al-aan.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/2698960315056172161" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/2698960315056172161" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/09/digital-tv-promo-media-helps-al-aan.html" rel="alternate" title="Digital TV | Promo Media Helps Al Aan Dubai in Pan Arab Expansion" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" height="72" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5ndUchtBndgLY4bFu9bAoFz34oWeLec8jxFBSZPa-RJmP5uW0VOVvMKl28rBHfpLkTwphhdNSp4GQfavMMgro7czntuUuOIOTf3bCs3nD1WE8hLSVVMSZDWJLl1-zfQU-9PHiIg/s72-c/Zoya+Sakr.JPG" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-7815878566454685094</id><published>2008-09-01T05:42:00.004+08:00</published><updated>2008-09-01T06:00:16.783+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Arab Media Group"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Arabian Radio Network"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Arabsat"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Asia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Badr 4"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcasters"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FM 93.9"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="free-to-air"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="MTV Arabia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="News"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Noor Dubai"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Ramadan"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="satellite"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV channel"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="UAE"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="vendor"/><title type="text">Digital Broadcast | Noor Dubai TV | Launches Sept 1</title><content type="html">Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;DBVNA&lt;/span&gt;) can tell you that the &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;United Arab Emirates'&lt;/span&gt; largest cross platform publisher, the &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Arab Media Group&lt;/span&gt; (AMG) is launching &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;'Noor Dubai'&lt;/span&gt; a new free-to-air satellite TV channel broadcasting locally-originating programs. &lt;a href="http://www.arabmediagrouponline.com/"&gt;AMG&lt;/a&gt; has chosen today, September 1, the auspicious first day of the Holy Month of &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Ramadan&lt;/span&gt;.
  519.  
  520. "Noor Dubai"  TV channel is a natural extension  of AMG's  popular &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Noor Dubai radio station on FM 93.9 MHz&lt;/span&gt;. Like its radio counterpart, the TV channel aims to embody the social and cultural values of the UAE Noor's  unique style of presenting daily life in the country.
  521.  
  522. &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;Nahla Al Fahad&lt;/span&gt;, Head of Radio Television Projects, commented: "Noor Dubai has always been a popular radio station that clearly speaks to the residents of UAE, both nationals and non-nationals alike, and reflects their thoughts and concerns. We wanted to expand the base of the Noor phenomenon by bringing it to television, to give the special Noor 'feel' a face and a visual identity."
  523. DBVNA notes that Noor Dubai distribution is on &lt;a href="http://www.arabsat.com/ArabSat/English/TheFleet/In-OrbitSatellites/26°+East/Bader-4slashFSS.htm"&gt;Arabsat Badr 4 satellite&lt;/a&gt;, transponder frequency 12169 Mhz.
  524.  
  525. Aside from publishing, the Arab Media Group owns and operates the FM-based, Arabian Radio Network (ARN) across the UAE, including Dubai Eye 103.8, Dubai 92, Pulse 95.3, City 1016, Hit 96.7, Noor Dubai 93.9, Al Khaleejiya 100.9 and Al Arabiya 99. Virgin Dubai, a branch of Sir Richard Branson’s Virgin International brand, was added in March 2008.
  526.  
  527. The &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabian_Television_Network"&gt;Arabian Television Network (ATN)&lt;/a&gt;,  AMG's TV subsidiary operates MTV Arabia and Nickelodeon, and now  Noor Dubai TV from September 1, 2008.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/7815878566454685094/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/09/digital-broadcast-noor-dubai-tv.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/7815878566454685094" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/7815878566454685094" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/09/digital-broadcast-noor-dubai-tv.html" rel="alternate" title="Digital Broadcast | Noor Dubai TV | Launches Sept 1" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-4668004683618960507</id><published>2008-08-27T18:54:00.003+08:00</published><updated>2008-08-27T19:08:57.305+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Anwar Ibrahim"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Bernama TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="channel"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Internet news"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="live-feed"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Malaysia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="UMNO"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="website"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="youth"/><title type="text">Bernama TV Starts Internet News Feeds</title><content type="html">Digital Broadcasters Vendor News Asia (DBVNA) can report that &lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;Bernama TV&lt;/span&gt;, the Internet based network of Malaysia's state run news agency will launch its first live-feed Internet news channel on Sept 3, 2008.  
  528.  
  529. Bernama TV's Internet online feed will operate on a time delay of 2 - 3 minutes after broadcast on Bernama's news output on Astro Channel 502.
  530.  
  531. The intention behind this latest addition to &lt;a href="http://www.bernama.com.my"&gt;Bernama's website&lt;/a&gt; is to reach the Malaysian Diaspora around the world, especially the youth segment of the audience that is IT savvy. More importantly online users want news immediately as events unfold without delay.
  532.  
  533. An official dry run for this new service was the debate recently between Malaysian Information Minister Datuk Ahmad Shabery Cheek and Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. A huge audience of Internet users in 44 countries accessed the Bernama server to watch the televised "live" debate.  Online users were located in Norway, China, South America and western countries.  
  534.  
  535. Bernama says that the new service is free. It will be supplemented by video-on-demand feeds for individual news stories and will be advertiser supported.  
  536.  
  537. DBVNA believes that Malaysia's ruling party, UMNO, is working hard to stem the loss of support from the mainstream Malay population as witnessed by the recent by-election win of Anwar Ibrahim in Penang. UMNO through Bernama TV, belatedly is recognising the reach and power of the Internet with young Malaysians.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Note: All logos/Trademarks are the sole property of the channel/company of the respective owners&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/feeds/4668004683618960507/comments/default" rel="replies" title="Post Comments" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/08/bernama-tv-starts-internet-news-feeds.html#comment-form" rel="replies" title="0 Comments" type="text/html"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/4668004683618960507" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/21989391/posts/default/4668004683618960507" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://e-broadcastnewsasia.blogspot.com/2008/08/bernama-tv-starts-internet-news-feeds.html" rel="alternate" title="Bernama TV Starts Internet News Feeds" type="text/html"/><author><name>Gerald Brown</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/18213113861430559160</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="32" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGRNrXBJPIU0o5pWf1mWdNJeySZsrt-Ts22WJkAkxZjqdVD24BOs3xjbYtv1jol5LvzkeSHGFrdwacU_QlkELxg395qhykJWA_JbczHVqKAfP0SasOeMM2ZWTF36qhEwA/s113/deckchairs-square-format-small.png" width="32"/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21989391.post-348032498385974220</id><published>2008-06-15T15:44:00.005+08:00</published><updated>2008-12-10T08:43:02.448+08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Aditya Jain"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Antennas"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Asia"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Asia-Pacific"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="broadcastasia2008"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Digital Broadcast"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="DVB"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="India"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Jampro"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="multi-frequency"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="New Delhi"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="RF"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="SLRC"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Sri Lanka  Rupavahini"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Vendor News"/><title type="text">Digital Vendor | Jampro Antennas in New Delhi Move</title><content type="html">&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWr6WAniAoqoHX3tPoSajvVIhgenHSdTVH2WY3l2Y1A8E8nCZk9QF4C9814DIDUBTOFEir62CWxg3yTPJtJCihTMAxhBTIMSTJGv0GjMC3W4ScmdEt_rjvangEJm0ydIctPrLREg/s1600-h/clip_image002.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWr6WAniAoqoHX3tPoSajvVIhgenHSdTVH2WY3l2Y1A8E8nCZk9QF4C9814DIDUBTOFEir62CWxg3yTPJtJCihTMAxhBTIMSTJGv0GjMC3W4ScmdEt_rjvangEJm0ydIctPrLREg/s320/clip_image002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212011616442139458" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
