History

The station began operations in 1996. In June 1999, channel 5 Cotabato upgraded as an originating station when it began producing its local TV Patrol newscast for the city, which later expanded to the Central Mindanao market.

ABS-CBN Cotabato and its Central Mindanao relays became part of the wider South Central Mindanao super region since 2010, combining its resources with Soccsksargen originating station DXZT-TV General Santos. Their partnership resulted to its pan-regional breakfast show Magandang Umaga South Central Mindanao. For the next eight years, the station continued to run as a separate regional market for Central Mindanao with local newscasts and advertising.

However, on June 29, 2018, as part of cost-cutting measures to ABS-CBN Regional, to align its digitization of facilities with the network's flagship station in Manila, DXAI-TV was closed down as an originating station.[1] Afterwards, the Cotabato station and its Central Mindanao transmitters were downgraded to General Santos relays, merging its news departments into a single pan-regional TV Patrol newscast produced in the latter for the entire South Central Mindanao super region.
