SES-Astra is to launch the new Entavio pay TV service during the consumer electronics show IFA in Berlin on September 1. About 80 Entavio enabled satellite receivers will be on show in Berlin and in the shops over the next few months. The company expects no problems with the German monopoly commission (Bundeskartelamt) as Entavio will only offer new pay-TV chnanels. Premiere Star is the first customer signed to the new service.

In a related development Premiere Star announced that the Hypo Vereinsbank will take a 10% share in the company. According to CEO Wolfram Winter the new pay-TV platform expects to win 400,000 DTH subscribers within the next two years and reach a turnover of €200 million.

AKaj pa množica nemških FTA kanalov, je kodiranje le teh padlo v vodo?

Ja, ex-Premiere Sky, po novem Premiere Star bo postal del družbe Entavio. Ne ve se pa kakšna bo kompatibilnost Entavio sprejemnikov z Premiere sprejemniki. To informacijo še nisem nikjer zasledil kako bo s tem. Kar se pa ostalih znanih "za zdaj prostih" kanalov tiče pa jih večina gre v ProsiebenSat1 Media AG koncern, kateri je 29.junija kupil SBS Boradcasting Group in to za extremnih 3.3 miljarde EUR.

Entavio kanal že oddaja na frekvenci 11.434 GHz V, Symbol Rate 22000, kjer je viden pod imenom APS.Test 2. Prvi APS Test je pa kodiran v Nagravision2 sitemu (CAID 1801 and CAID 1830).
Kmalu kodirani kanali bodo postali RTL, Super RTL, RTL 2, VOX, MTV, Nick in Comedy Central, vendar bodo še nekaj časa dosegljivi tudi FTA. Z ostalimi programi se Entavio še dogovarja.
Zaenkrat je pa jasno da se kanali ZDF, ARD, ProSiebenSat.1 in Tele5 ne pridružujejo paketu in bodo ostali odprti do nadaljnega.
