A new DTH platform known as Flix TV has made its debut in the Czech Republic.
The service is initially offering viewers a choice of four packages, known as Dobrá, Lepsi, Aktívni and HBO MaxPak. Dobrá consists of 57 channels, 15 of which are in HD, and costs CZK299 (€11) a month, while Lepsi builds on Dobrá with an additional 25 channels, eight of which are in HD, and costs CZK399 a month. HBO MaxPak offers five channels, three of which are in HD, for CZK279 a month, and Aktívni six channels, four of which are in HD, for CZK199 a month.
As previously reported in Broadband TV News, Flix.TV was awarded a licence for the Czech regular RRTV for the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary last November.
The new platform is employing the services of Telekom Austria Group on Eutelsat 16A at 16 degrees East.
