The technology rides on Mediacorp’s Digital TV (DVB-T2) network and seamlessly combines broadcast with broadband TV. The service is delivered via HbbTV-enabled Smart TVs that are certified for the Toggle Red Button service, and available on selected models by major TV manufacturers.
Key features of the service include direct access to Toggle’s catalogue of more than 12,000 hours of Mediacorp TV shows and Toggle Original content as well as an Electronic Program Guide (EPG), which provides program information, synopses, and schedules.
