Bobbles launches two new Humax receivers

July 11, 2017 08.54 Europe/London By Robert Briel

Pan-European satellite-plus-OTT entertainment service Bobbles.tv launches two new Humax consumer devices to enable more expat viewers to watch TV content from home.

The two net boxes are the Humax B1 HEVC compliant digital set-top box for satellite reception and Humax H3 OTT media player for OTT online viewing.

The Humax B1 HEVC compliant digital set-top box will deliver bobbles programming from Asia to European subscribers via SES’ 19.2 degrees East Astra satellite position, using HEVC, also known as H.265. The Humax B1 STB will deliver SD picture and sound quality for bobbles’ satellite viewers.

The Android-based Humax H3 media player for OTT viewing delivers wireless, multi-room TV enabling bobbles online subscribers to watch their content anywhere in the home or office.

Bobbles.tv is the pioneering multicultural satellite and OTT entertainment service for international expat communities living in Europe. Launched in August 2016, bobbles.tv delivers popular programming to Chinese and Korean communities across Europe, while the most recently launched bobbles package delivers India’s most popular TV channels to viewers in mainland Europe.
