Singapore's StarHub picks up MediaCorp HD5

by Darren Murph, posted Jun 20th 2008 at 4:02AM


Time to celebrate, Singapore. Your HD starved lineup on StarHub will soon be getting a tiny bit bigger, as MediaCorp's HD Channel 5 makes its debut on the service. Thanks to a recent agreement signed by the carrier and network, subscribers to StarHub's HD service will begin seeing HD5 sometime next month, which will reportedly air popular programs such as Lost, movies like Lord of the Rings and even the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Best of all, the newcomer will be provided to HD customers gratis. Doesn't get much better than free, huh?

JVC's Everio GZ-HD5 / GZ-HD6 HD camcorders do 1080i with ease

Mmm, you can almost smell all those pixels from your cubical chair, now can't you? JVC's getting our minds in a tizzy today with two new HD camcorders that are compact for carrying and big on resolution. Both the GZ-HD5 (available in black and silver) and the GZ-HD6 (just silver) each capture video at 1,920 x 1,080 and feature Genessa technology, HDMI, component, i.LINK and mini-USB connectors, an SDHC slot and audio in / out to boot. The only major difference between the two is the internal hard drive: with the HD5, you'll get 60GB to store all sorts of antics on, while you can double that with the extra capacious HD6. As predicted, each device is touting that elusive open offer price tag for now, but considering that we've only a fortnight before they hit the streets, we suppose we'll know soon enough.

Southeast Asia's first HD channel, HD5 launches Nov 11

Southeast Asia is finally ready to officially launch its first HD channel, when MediaCorp rolls out HD5 in 1080i on November 11. The channel will be a simulcast of Singapore's existing channel 5, and will only be in HD about 30% of the time to start. MediaCorp has already made deals with Voom and others for HD content, and plans to increase that number to 50% during prime time over the next 18 months. About 10,000 homes are already testing HDTV via SingTel's IPTV service, along with the 1,000 households previously testing the service.
