Question Does Airtel DTH/Reliance Big TV DTH offer better picture than Tata?


Hi,
Question in subject… Does MPEG4 in favor of MPEG2 help? And how does the user interface of Reliance compare to that of TATA Sky?

well mpeg4 offers better compression/picture quality ratio.
well user interface of big tv ain't that good ,may be better suited for old people or who have trouble reading small letters.
i definetly like airtel interface the most.

MPEG4 is compressed than MPEG2,so ideally 2 is better than 4.But may of us have experienced signal failure in rainy days.
I think 4 can be better choice as data transmitted use less bits tha 2,so signal failure can be less.

I have not done any comparison but TATA Sky looks stunning on my Philips 29PT8836. Channels that shine are Star World, National Geographic, BBC & BBC Entertainment.

It is hard to catch those on the channels I have listed. Motion artifacts are very visible on HBO, ZEE Studio & VH1

Tata Sky and Dish TV are the worst of the lot, Airtel is marginally better. Tata Sky + over component is better still, and Reliance Big TV over component is the best. but Reliance's interface is terrible, absolutely, as is their customer service, therefore, i think all things considered, Tata Sky+ over component is a good compromise.
