      Qube and Scrabble bring electronic delivery to cinema theatres in Middle East

      Qube and Scrabble bring electronic delivery to cinema theatres in Middle East
      ShareTweetPostEmail

      With WireTAP installations at theatres across 14 countries, 75% of the region’s deliveries will go electronic by the end of 2020.

      Qube Cinema and digital cinema solutions provider Scrabble Entertainment have brought electronic delivery to cinema theatres in the Middle East with the installation of Qube’s WireTAP. The WireTAP is a cloud-connected, in-theatre appliance that allows automated delivery of DCPs and KDMs directly over the internet.

      Exhibitors currently connected to the network include VOX Cinemas, Cinema City, Flix Cinemas, Roxy Cinemas, Mukta A2, Reel Cinemas, Cine Royal Cinemas, Oscar Cinemas, Empire Cinemas, CineCo, Star Cinemas, Cinepolis, Muvi Cinemas and other Independents. Over 60% of theatres in the region are already equipped with WireTAPs, with the remaining locations including Novo Cinemas expected to be covered in the coming months.

      Most of the region was shut down due to the Covid-19 pandemic in the first half of the year, but distributors have used the network to deliver big tentpoles and library titles across the region as theatres have reopened. Now, more than ever, distributors and exhibitors appreciate that electronic delivery is automatic and contact-free with a significantly reduced carbon footprint.

      Qube and Scrabble have introduced the electronic delivery of films in Saudi Arabia as well. Qube Wire has helped enable rapid modernisation and expansion of cinemas in the KSA. Currently, 75% of KSA theatres are connected to Qube Wire, as well as the country’s censor board, the General Commission on Audiovisual Media (GCAM).

      Qube Wire allows distributors to book and monitor content delivery in real-time. Qube Wire electronically delivers movies to most locations in under eight hours and certified, regional hard drive partners can deliver hard drives to locations that are not yet connected to our electronic network.

      Speaking of the service, Cameron Mitchell, CEO of Majid Al Futtaim Cinemas and Majid Al Futtaim Leisure & Entertainment said: “Majid Al Futtaim has always remained at the forefront of innovation regionally, continually embracing new technologies to allow VOX Cinemas to deliver an exceptional customer experience. Qube WireTAP is a revolutionary technology for the distribution of digital cinema packages (DCPs) and, VOX Cinemas has successfully integrated the platform across four of our markets. We see the electronic delivery system as having numerous benefits to allow seamless movie distribution to our theatres regionally.”

      Nigel Dennis, Senior Vice President of Sales at Qube Cinema remarked: “We have tried to take advantage of the time that the pandemic has given us to work on ways to bring about a real change in the way content is moved. So far, studios and distributors of all sizes have been really happy with our service, and we’ll continue soliciting their feedback to improve how we work together in future.”
