History[edit]

This section needs expansion with: the text translated from the corresponding article in Indonesian. You can help by adding to it. (December 2023)

MNC Vision began operations on 16 January 1994 as Indovision.^[1] Indovision started its service with a five-channel C-Band Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) analog service. Using Palapa C-2 satellite for its transponder and broadcasting system, the C-Band DBS service features programming from international suppliers, such as HBO Asia, Star TV, Discovery, as well as local programming. In 1997, IndoStar-1 which is also known as Cakrawarta-1 (designed and built by Thomas van der Heyden, founder of what later became Orbital Sciences GEO division), was launched as the world's first commercial communications satellite to use S-band frequencies for broadcasting (pioneered by van der Heyden), which provided high-quality transmissions to small-diameter 80 cm antennas in regions that experience heavy rainfall such as Indonesia.

This satellite uses S-Band frequency, which is less vulnerable to atmospheric interference than other satellite frequencies, and are well suited to tropical climates such as Indonesia. Cakrawarta-1 is managed and operated by PT Media Citra Indostar (MCI), established on 22 July 1991.^[1]

By the end of 1997, the company anticipated terminating its analog service and encouraged its subscribers to switch to its digital DBS service.^[1]

In 2008, a slimmed-down suite of channels was marketed separately by Indovision as Top TV. It was discontinued at the end of 2017 in the rebranding to MNC Vision.^[2]

In May 2009, Indovision launched a satellite named Indostar-2/Cakrawarta-2/ProtoSar-2. It was later renamed to SES-7 in May 2010. It is positioned at 108.2° East longitude to avoid collisions.^[3][4][5]

Currently, MNC Vision has 5 channels in high-definition, including HBO HD, Fox Movies Premium HD, National Geographic Channel HD, Disney XD HD, and Fox Sports 3 HD.

On December 12, 2017, Indovision merged with Top TV and Okevision to form MNC Vision.^[6]

On May 12, 2023, Warner Bros. Discovery Asia-Pacific ended its contract with MNC Vision and removed its 14 channels from the platform.^[7]
