Five new channels were added to the Boxer DTT network on the 1st December when Swedens new 6th Multiplex came into operation. The channels are Showtime, Star, 7, BBC World, and Disney XD.
The new multiplex covers 60% of Swedish households, mainly in the central part of Sweden and uses MPEG-4, H.264 AVC coding for the first time instead of the current MPEG-2. Gradually the transmission network will be expanded to reach the entire country.
