Technicolor has won a further contract from Astro, Malaysia’s leading integrated cross-media group. Already an established supplier of MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 STBs for standard definition broadcasting, Technicolor is now to supply HD MPEG-4 STBs with local recording capability to support Astro’s move to offer more technology-adapting services and products to its near 3 million customer base. The STB to be supplied by Technicolor includes the ability to record to an external disk or disks, allowing subscribers the convenience and flexibility to tailor their recording capability to meet their own requirements.
