All Media Baltics signs TV broadcast services agreement with Encompass
As of
November 1, Encompass has taken over MTG Broadcasting Services, which used to
provide broadcast services to MTG.
“This has ensured the continuity of AM
Baltics channels’ broadcasts, and additionally, the new partner will also
improve the TV channel’s technical quality,” the AM Latvia representative said.
Encompass will be
providing a broad range of content delivery services to ensure the broadcast
of AM Baltics-owned TV channels, including TV program monitoring and provision of
various delivery formats for broadcasts on various platforms. The services will
be provided by an Encompass division in Riga.
Encompass will ensure
the broadcasting of all AM Baltics TV channels in all three Baltic states,
including the broadcasting of TV3, TV6, 3+, LNT and Kanals2 in Latvia. The
company will provide subtitling and dubbing of AM Baltics video and audio content
and provide services to video on demand (VOD) platforms tvplay.lv and
viaplay.lv.
In October, Swedish media holding Modern Times Group (MTG) sold its Baltic
business to international assets manager Providence Equity Partners (Providence), and the new company, combining all its businesses in the Baltic states,
was named All Media Baltics.
