MPEG4 Information

According to information being received it seems that Dialog TV is gearing up for the launch of MPEG4. Unconfirmed sources say that the new MPEG4 compatible decoder is being issued to new subscribers. Anyone who has more information/confirmation of this is welcome to comment with the relevant information.

In other information there has been no improvement in the picture quality of Dialog TV channels so far. There are rumors of Sirasa Channels coming on board Dialog TV on a seperate SET plan. There have been mixed views by subscribers about this and therefore we have decided to start a new poll on this, which will be available on the right hand corner of the screen.

Our previous poll results are given below

Opinion of NDTV Good Times
  1. Replace with English Channel - 49%
  2. Good - 28%
  3. Replace with Tamil Channel - 13%
  4. Remove and improve bandwidth - 8%
Please continue taking part in our polls and please keep us updated on the latest on Dialog TV as the days progress. Given below are pictures of what is believed to the new MPEG4 decoder, however we are unable to confirm this information.

    What are they going to do with MPEG4 boxes? Are they trying to change all old boxes with the new once? Will it be free of charge or will they charge for the new box?

    I discovered recently my kids fav program on Nick (dora & Diego)has gone HINDI so I'm thinking about sending them to learn Hindi since most programs on Cartoon network are Hindi too. I personal feel DTV should get feed from another region if they want to keep there clients cause if there's another operator who's transmitting i these channels in English I'll sure turn to then tomorrow.
