2024.09.06
We are pleased to announce that we have partnered with Fetch TV on the design, production, and launch of the new Fetch Mini G5 set-top box. Now available in Australia via leading Internet Service Providers and retailers, the device is small, measuring just 10cm square x 2.3cm high, but feature-packed.
It includes a DVB-T2 tuner for broadcast TV, 4GB RAM, and a powerful Amlogic S905X4 chip, making it a high-performance entertainment aggregation device delivering a seamless user experience.
As part of the development, Fetch TV worked with Amlogic and Consult Red to make the Mini G5 the world’s first Hybrid RDK-Android Opensource operating system, presented within high-quality hardware manufactured by Skyworth.
The development is the first platform implementation of the innovative AndApps™ solution from Consult Red and enables Fetch to easily add Android apps into the RDK ecosystem to enhance the content choice, value, and user experience for Fetch customers, whilst maintaining the operator benefits of data security, UX monetization and transaction management.
