TV Derana now with PVR functions

Well those of you who have subscribed to Dialog's PVR have now been given an additional channel since TV Derana is now available for time shifting and recording on the Dialog PVR Decoder. Upto this point only TNL was the only local FTA channel available with PVR functions.

It's a bit ironic that mostly only foreign pay channels are enabled on the PVR but local FTA channels are dragging their feet when it comes to allow full PVR functions on their channels. We hope the fact that TV Derana is now available with full PVR functions will cause the other local FTA channels on Dialog TV to be fully PVR enabled.

In other news it should be noted that the quality of Hiru TV has improved drastically after the initial drop in quality once the FTA test transmissions were started.

Dialog TV still has one channel slot that is wastes names "Dialog Test Channel" & we hope it would be allocated to a new pay television channel preferably "Ten Action".

Please keep us updated on the latest on Dialog TV as the days progress.

That Dialog Test channel is allocated to launch Rangiri Sri Lanka Television, and Rangiri Television started its FTA test transmission in Vesak Poya day and there intial coverage is started in and around Central, North-Central, East provinces.

Did anyone notice NEO CRICKET has been renamed as NEO PRIME? which means no more 24 x 7 cricket on NEO??
Why ADMIN is silent?? we need your comments pls..

Larukh said...

I think Neo Cricket is rebranded because they lost the broadcasting rights for future cricket tours in India..They mostly telecasted Indian cricket...

Just a note about ridee tv. It is very annoying to see various labels going up and down the screen on that channel. It is distracting and degrades the quality of the channel. I wonder if Tissa Nagodawithana thinks the whole world is waiting to run off with a pirated copy of his movies, when even HBO doesn't display silly labels like that. Also that channel doesnt have a programme guide yet. I appreciate the attempt to create a channel with sri lankan dramas and movies but, in order to compete with other channels, one must first ask ones self why anybody should watch the channel. Ridee tv seems to be another channel with no clear plan on the same lines as citi hitz, the only difference being it has access to a vast movie library.
