Select-TV

Select-TV's development was based on Intel's x86 platform initially using Via Technologies's chipset and when Intel Atom became available, the company switched to the latter. Future hardware for Select-TV's set-top boxes are being planned with Intel CE4100 for its video decoding capabilities. ==Awards ==

In 2006, the company won the Prime Minister's "Best of the Best" award from MSC Malaysia APICTA (Asia Pacific Information Technology Award), awarded by the then Prime Minister of Malaysia, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. ==Investors ==

Select-TV has raised venture capital funds from Intel Capital Corporation and Malaysian Venture Capital Berhad in 2010. In January 2011, the company announced that it was going to invest MYR30 million under the Economic Transformation Programme to set up its IPTV system, initiated by the Malaysian government's Performance Management and Delivery Unit (PEMANDU). The project stipulates that the company set up its CXS in hotels in the South East Asia, and beam Malaysian content into these hotels in order to promote Malaysia-made content to neighboring countries. ==Developments==

Below are the phases of development that Select-TV has gone through up to today: ==Home Market==

Select-TV launched EMAGINE for the home market in July 2011. Select-TV's EMAGINE over-the-top media centre's idea is to bring a better experience to consumers. Transforming the TV screen into a platform for content delivery and interactive services, EMAGINE allows operators to create new businesses or leverage on existing market base to increase revenue per user (ARPU). Unlike AppleTV, EMAGINE is designed and built to support internet standards such as JAVA and Adobe Flash to ensure users abilities to adapt the solution to their business needs faster than any other common set top boxes in the market. EMAGINE is able to support formats such as MPEG2, MPEG4, H.264, AVI, MKV, etc. in high definition 1080P. For music, it is able to support formats such as MP3, WAV and OGG. The concept for EMAGINE by Select-TV is that it is VAS enabled to allow Value added services such as eCommerce. Hence, to telcos it is not just a media player but allowing interactivity between the service provider and consumers. Units for its first version comes with HDMI input / output, 3 USB port, 1 slot for SD card reader, 1 GB DDR3 memory. Consumers can opt for built in Hard Disc Drive if they purchase online. On January 31, 2012, the UF Group announced that in partnering with Select-TV, they are deploying 90,000 of the EMAGINE boxes to homes around the world with India being the initial target market. ==See also ==
