Western media firms such as Viacom Inc, News Corp and Time Warner Inc have been courting Chinese officials for years in efforts to gain footholds in the Chinese market, the largest in the world by viewers. Viacom unveiled with much fanfare in March a joint venture to produce TV shows in Shanghai. The venture, in which Viacom took a minority stake, was said to be the first of its kind. The cartoon and pay TV sectors specifically allow foreign investment,” vice minister of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television (SARFT), Hu Zhanfan, was quoted as saying. Officials from SARFT were not immediately available for comment. The newspaper did not offer details, but analysts said the statement showed a further relaxing of controls on two relatively innocuous segments of the broadcast media sector. China jealously guards what its 1. Programmes with sexual, religious and political themes are under tight leash. At a meeting where representatives of the information and broadcasting ministry, the Intelligence Bureau and the departments of space and telecommunications were present, DTH was largely given a clean chit. An official said the same arguments had been looked at in the past and DTH has been found to be “cleaner”. To get pornography on DTH, one has to buy the relevant “card” for the X- rated channel and re- wire the DTH apparatus to get it. In comparison, it is easier to get smut on the normal C- band. All one has to do is buy a dish and aim it at the right channel, is the argument. Besides, if one really wants to access porn, there is the Internet or VCDs and video cassettes that are widely available at any big market in a city. These are much easier options than re- jigging the DTH platform. Finally, two DTH systems — belonging to Zee and Doordarshan — have launched telecasts and there is no pornography on them. If there is, there are enough laws to make sure the channel is swiftly banned. The other issue relates to national security. While DTH could theoretically be used, there are easier options, including the Internet. Sorry about the recent server outages.

Ten years ago, the Chinese Long March rockets launched Optus B3 and blazed a fiery trail into the night skies. One year later, the Optus Aurora platform for remote area broadcasters (RAB) was launched using B3's transponder capacity. This marked the beginning of Optus B3's contribution to Optus' success in becoming Australia's leading satellite provider for all 1. RAB licensees throughout Australia. Subsequently, a Foxtel contract was signed in December 1. Optus B3 the 'Hotbird' that ensured high quality and reliable distribution satellite platform for Australia. In July 2. 00. 3, Optus B3 was replaced by Optus C1 and moved to 1. East. With just one year at its new orbit location, Optus B3 is over half full with services. Today, Optus B3 provides Australia and New Zealand with narrowcast Pay- TV, Aurora closed user group customers (Sky Channel, and business TV), Business Satellite services (VSAT services), Remote Area Broadcasting Services (RABS), and Globecast services. Over the past 1. 0 years, Optus B3 has achieved an impressive and unprecedented success of utilisation rate of its transponder capacity for Australia and New Zealand coverage. Today, Optus B3 is standing proudly in orbit as Optus' shining star.(Craigs comment, Late birthday wishes to B3)CHINA: Free set- top box offer to help pay- TV promotion. From http: //www. Official says government will have new way to connect with the masses. Free set- top converter boxes will be offered on the mainland to promote pay- TV and speed up the move to digital broadcasting, officials said yesterday. Zhang Haitao , vice- minister of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, said the move would connect millions of households to interactive government, education and shopping services, along with providing entertaining and informative programming. He told a cable TV executive management conference that the government would be given a new way of connecting with the masses. Mr Zhang said the administration had given its approval to four media groups, in addition to China Central Television, to operate pay- TV networks. The announcement of the free set- top boxes comes after the landmark decision to allow satellite broadcasting of pay- TV programming from August 1. Sun Yusheng , president of China Central Digital Television, said this was a major break for pay- TV operators as it would make it easier to connect far- flung areas. Satellite transmission would also break down barriers put up by local governments that had invested in cable TV rollouts and resented the inroads being made by national pay- TV operators, industry sources noted. The new pay- TV service will be officially rolled out on September 1. CCTV is offering a six- channel package for 5. Mr Sun admitted that despite the central government's support, the pay- TV industry still faced many obstacles including technical ignorance about encoding and decoding, plus unfamiliarity with pricing and packaging. Although mainlanders have more than 5. Mr Sun said he believed there was still significant demand for pay- TV given the size of the market. In Germany, where the airwaves are saturated with free- to- air channels, pay- TV had only penetrated just above 7 per cent of households. But Mr Sun said the population of Germany was equal to that of a large mainland province and if just 7 per cent of the mainland's 1. TV users signed on for digital pay- TV, this would amount to seven million subscribers. The key was not to fragment into regional pay- TV franchises, but to build a national mass market, Mr Sun emphasised. Apart from competition from free- to- air TV, Mr Sun said rampant piracy of films and foreign satellite channels were other hurdles that had to be addressed. Mr Sun noted that digital TV was the way of the future with the dawn of high- definition TV, exclusive content and interactivity, which would justify the extra cost. CCTV is planning to launch high- definition TV next year. China launches satellite. From http: //www. V sr 3. 00. 00 Fec 2/3 . Star Sports of course is the very popular channel off Asiasat 3.

UBI Have a card up on B3 warning people not to be taken in by scammers.(NO COMMENT, cough cough). Please be advised NOT to purchase any equipment and that there are NO U. B. I. Announcements will be made when the services become available to subscribers. From My Emails & ICQFrom Mondo RG'day Craig,In April this year Tarbs contacted me to do signal measurements of transponders on Optus B3 here in Derby WA. I asked why and was told could I please measure them and don't ask questions and I would be paid accordingly. I declined as their attitude always bothered me. Seeing a few of the Public Servants here are married to Filipino women when ABS CBN put up a web site and offered decoders, at a price, to do their new services for Australia on Panamsat 8 a few sent away for them. Now they have the IRDs it turns out the IRDs are useless. One of the recipients brought one to my shop and trying everything I could not get it going. He then rang ABS CBN from my office and eventually getting through was told it worked when it left the Filipines and must be his fault it does not work now.
