Astro To Add More 4K UHD To Its Channels, Malaysia’s Favourite Awards Show Included

Astro is pleased to announce that it has reached a new milestone with Malaysia’s first local live production and hugely popular awards show, Anugerah MeleTOP ERA 2020 (AME 2020) produced in 4K UHD. In its seventh year, AME2020 is expected to attract 4 million fans who will be treated to seeing their favorite Malaysian celebrities in brilliant 4K UHD during the live final show on 12 April.

The AME2020 in 4K UHD will be a testament to Astro’s production capability as conversion to the 4K UHD format entails a significant step up in terms of the technology required including a Native 4K Mobile Production Control unit, which in turn has provided the technical production staff the opportunity to further enhance their skillset, keeping Astro at the forefront as an industry leader in this space within Malaysia and the wider region.

Astro claims that 4K UHD will take your viewing experience to the next level and offers stunning definition color television experience and 4X more clarity. With 4K UHD, viewers will experience the most vibrant color television experience possible, 4 times the resolution of HDTV including sharper detail, smoother lines, and a richer color palette.

With AME broadcasted in 8 million pixels packed in stunning format, the detail will be so rich that you might even see every little expression from the winners that night.
