Hathway Cable & Datacom is set to launch India's first cable digital video recorder (DVR) service with NDS XTV DVR technology.
Korea-based Humax will be the set-top box (STB) supplier. "We will be soft launching the service in July. We have signed up with NDS. The box price is not yet crystallised. The launch of NDS' XTV DVR services is part of our ongoing strategy to offer consumers in India the very best pay television services in the market," says Hathway Cable & Datacom MD & CEO K Jayaraman.
The new technology allows subscribers to pause, record, play back, rewind and fast-forward their broadcast cable TV channels for viewing when they choose. Viewers can record one program while playing another, or record both simultaneously.
