Disney Junior testing & more

According to reports it seems that Disney Junior is now testing on channel number 55. We are not sure whether this is the Indian feed or Asian feed as yet. Also Siyatha TV & Varnam TV were added to all packages even old ones that are not promoted by Dialog TV anymore. This is good since they have been taking some heat over the last few days for with holding the channels from those packages.

It seems that gradually the advertised CNBC, etc will be coming on board. The movie channel with content similar to Star Movies is missing yet. Hopefully it's Fox Movies Premium but nothing is certain. 

Also Dialog should not waste this valuable transponder space on any more local FTA channels since they will take the road that will end up in total loss. There are some requests but the business from local FTA ones will be less. If Dialog have no capacity then they can add those channels but Dialog has capacity issues like any other DTH provider. 

There is no point in starting local channels specifically for the platform unless some sort of quality can be maintained, as we have seen in the recent past that's hard to do. Most of those who request for loads of local channels either do not have a Dialog TV connection or subscribe to per day TV which represents only a small portion of the DTV subscribers.

Please update us on the latest on Dialog TV as the days progress.

Adding CNBC is a very good move.. we hope then FOX movies will also gonna be here...
i was told that the reason for removing star movies from SL was, star movies had no right to broadcast movies beyond india (this means star movies had only approval from the indian film board, that you see in the beginning of a movie)

if this is true, the same logic applies to ZEE Studios as well. so ideally ZEE Studio will also move out...???

this means in the future we will have only Asian feeds and not Indian feeds wow..

Disney Junior is good. much better than Pogo, Discovery Kids and cartoon Network which all telecast bit too much of violence.

Star gold is precious,, if zee studio going to move out, it will be huge loss to people because they are doing a damn good job also it is better than some crappy Asian feeds like Sundance
