@adityatandon: I don't know if there is any difference with the previous HD boxes.
@kumararvind: Thanks for the great info. :urock:
@chits009: Yes, they said the same thing to me as well. I told them then why don't you remove this page from your site: Tata sky HD offer
What I liked on TataSkyHD:
1. NatGeo and DiscoveryHD. Its worth spending Rs. 2600/- for the HD box and paying Rs. 30/- per month if you have an HD television.
2. The blue '0700CE??' banner that appears on the screen every few minutes is half the size on what we see on SD box. Plus we can access the info button and instant channel guide (that appears when we press any directional button). This was not possible on SD boxes when the blue banner was being displayed on screen.
3. NatGeo has no Chinese subtitles.
What I hated on TataSkyHD:
1. StarPlusHD: As kumararvind said, its an upscaled SD channel. The quality of StarPlusHD looks about 30% better than normal StarPlus... but the worst thing is its Volume is 50% lower than all other channels. So it makes no sense to watch this channel. You will have to reduce the voulme everytime you shift to any other channel, and increase if you want to watch StarPlusHD again. This is simply ridiculous and irritating.
2. About 1inch thick 'blurry line' is visible sometimes that runs full length on top across the screen. I was watching Blade II on WB last night and this line was really annoying. It was not going away.
3. There is also a 1inch thick line of snow (like no RF signals) that pops up on top of the screen on all the channels. But this happens for a fraction of a second only and not occasionally.
4. A minor sound glitch is heard sometimes. Like a digital noise.
What I would like on TataSkyHD:
1. Movies Now HD and more HD channels.
2. They should provide upscaled version of FTV instead of StarPlus. Because no one cares if the volume of FTV is low. Or atleast make the volume of StarPlusHD equal to other channels.
3. What is the function of 2 USB ports at the back?
That's all for now.
