Video conferencing will be big for C-Cube when the pipes are fat enough to carry quality video. They have a small presence in the industry today. DSL and cable modems could change that. Divi installs an Asian office, on the same day Signapore award a trial licence. Interesting.................................................. Digital TV lead for Singapore South China Morning Post Wed, Mar 11 1998 Singapore's broadcasting watchdog has granted a trial licence to an independent company to set up Asia's first digital terrestrial service. The Singapore Broadcasting Authority (SBA) granted Advent Television permission to trial its service, which aims to offer a sharper picture and sound quality than the analogue signals used by terrestrial services like TVB and ATV. Advent plans a full commercial service by next year, although it is still negotiating with the Singapore Government for a full licence. Digital TV has been limited to transmissions from satellites either to cable TV operators for distribution, or directly to homes. Advent will take programming from the Television Corp of Singapore (TCS), which will connect a fibre optic cable to the company's broadcast centre to deliver TCS' digital programming. Among the services on offer by Advent will be educational and training programming, infotainment and news from Singapore. Hong Kong and Singapore had been in the running to be the first Asian market to offer digital terrestrial TV. However Singapore's national programme to tap into the multimedia revolution which is led from the highest levels of government, has streamlined the approval process for new technologies more than has been the case in Hong Kong. The SAR is inviting submissions from interested parties as it prepares for a wide-ranging review of broadcasting that also will cover related issues like the Internet, providing telephony and TV services along the same cables, and digital terrestrial TV.
