Insight TV has launched its linear HD channel in the Middle East on Saudi Arabian over the top streaming (OTT) service Jawwy TV, operated by Intigral.

The deal, managed by content producer and distributor SAWA Rights Management (SRM), will deliver Insight’s programming to regional viewers 24 hours a day, through either the Jawwy set-top box or the Jawwy TV app.

Programmes from the entertainment, action sports and lifestyle channel to be carried on Jawwy TV include Morbidelli Rising, THRU, Travel with a Goat, and Story of Masters. All content is filmed in 4K ultra HD.

“We’re delighted to make this double whammy announcement,” said Graeme Stanley, COO, Insight TV. “The launch of Insight TV in the MENA region and our new, non-exclusive distribution partnership with SRM will enable us to reach more viewers who are hungry for our adrenaline-fuelled content featuring action heroes, content creators, trending communities and inspirational topics.”

Ali Ajouz, CEO, SRM added: “Insight TV is an exciting prospect for viewers across the MENA region as its content is totally unique and compelling. We’re looking forward to working on future projects and making future announcements over the coming months.”
