Aren't all Dth providers supposed to offer all channels...................like star, zee etc. Ir-respective of wether you are with dd-direct, dish tv or the soon to be coming Tata-Star's sky tv??

aadipa · 28-05-2005, 05:18 PM

In India, DTH is currently provided by DD and Zee only.

And since, Sony and Star groups are not on DTH, you cannot receive those channels (Sony, SET MAX, Star Plus, Star News, etc) till they are available on DTH.

But once they are available, you can get them by paying to those DTH provider providing those channels, irrespective of your current DTH provider.

You just pay for the packages. But you can only pay if they are there to sell

Tata group is on the way to launch their DTH service soon

mr_356 · 29-05-2005, 01:07 AM

i have not fix number of channels.
ones (when i setup) there were 35 and than after there were 38 with zee trendz and alpha gujarati
and know there are only 34

any one know reason behind this?

expertno.1 · 29-05-2005, 05:20 AM

i will explain it
for dth broadcasting there are two ways of broadcasting

1) - Encrypted format which can only be understood by a card similar to the computers encryption with password . such as conex
this protection is favoured by paid dth services like
Dish Tv

2) - Unecryped- Any settop box without any suitable card can view as you can view an unencrypted or unhidden folder in windows explorer

thirdly ,

all the dth services in India are on the Satellite
NSS6

both dd direct+ and Dishtv both are on NSS 6

they broadcast from there

so sometimes these encryptions are temporarily
disabled by the satellite and then it becomes unencrypted and you can view the channel

but when the satellite works fine the channel is no longer seen due to encryption

i have seen even the paid channels like Zee Tv ,
Premier and Action Cinema , CT network,ETC music

which worked only for 10-15 minutes and after that gone !

so betetr look at your tv and u may find some pay channels which can be viewed for 10 minutes

this dd dth is good in the sense that it's free...u only pay for the hardware and the installation charges(if any)..plu u also get alot of free channels...for free stuff it good u can get to watch 1 to 3 movies per day which isn't bad...no recurring expenses dude..got one myself a few back..no regrets...good reception in my area(dvd quality)there aren't many choice for buying the different companys setup boxes..but the one i got is good
