Hathway goes HD in Bangalore??

[gopichandpai]

Hathway Cable and Star Sports battle it out over DAS deals | TelevisionPost.com

Hathway Cable & Datacom MD and CEO Jagdish Kumar stated, We have decided to put Star Sports channels on RIO as it will help us in managing our content costs. As it is, sport is a seasonal property and is largely event driven. Kumar said that only 10 per cent of its subscribers have subscribed to one or the other Star Sports channels ever since the MSO started offering the channels on a la carte since February. Since we have put Star Sports channels on a la carte, only 10 per cent of our subscribers have subscribed to these channels. If only 10 per cent consumers want these channels, then why should we pay for the entire universe? Kumar said.

Got the message on my STB today morning. It mentions only Star Sports 1-4 will go a-la-carte and doesnt specify the HD channels. Can we assume that they will be bundled with the HD package?

I was also wondering how the SD customers are informed of this. As far as I know, the SD box doesnt have a message feature...

 

[gopichandpai]

I was told by the customer care that even HD channels will become a la carte. They don't have enough information about it as HD customers usually pay for one year or 6 months in advance. They will know more about it in next 3 to 4 days.

 

[canchi]

Have an SD box downstairs , message has appeared on it too.
I have paid up an year in advance, regretting now !!

 

[rahulxy]

I too have paid in advance, till June. Need to see what can be done about it.

Although, I rarely watch the SD sports channels anymore as they look terrible when compared to HD.

ALL hathway boxes have the message feature. I am using the SD box for last 7 years, and the message feather have always been there.

[rahulxy]

I imagine it wasnt easy making this list so soon after the new channels were added. Really appreciate it!
I saw a post on another forum that more HD channels are going to be added soon. Hope that it true as well.

 

[deep_g]

Any news on the Star Sports tussle? Who is going to blink first? Or is it going to be the subscribers suffering the most, as always?

 

[gopichandpai]

@Rahul
Yes it took more than an hour to keep the list up to date.

@Deep
No clarity as of now. Looks like we will end up paying extra for these channels.

 

[sandeepn]

fox traveller hd (389) and baby tv hd (391) added in mumbai

 

[rahulxy]

The audio for Travel XP SD is Hindi. Is it the same for everyone? I have all Language preferences set to English but I believe those Language settings are dummy settings.

Speaking of dummy settings, even the Subtitle settings are dummy right? Nat Geo People HD always has subtitles in Indonesian (thats my guess).

Has anyone ever seen the audio language or subtitle choices make any difference?

 

[gopichandpai]

Subtitle setting are dummy totally. They can't be changed or removed.

Ideally, the language selected in the settings should be the language by default but in hathway. only few channels have this multiple audio and they don't depend on what is set in settings menu.

 

[shreyaskini]

Travel XP is channel which has both english n hindi audio feeds n if you're getting it in hindi then i believe its done by hathway itself.This is why i hate digital cable they do what they like to n they don't care abt the subscribers! Why don't they just provide both the feeds n let the subscribers watch it in whichever language they want? i face the problem on DEN but anyways they're providing us travel xp in its default audio i.e. English

 

[umapati]

My Hathway HD box giving trouble now a days..it displays " please insert your card"..even cleaning the card does not solve the problem..few days back it was getting sorted out automatically after half n hour or so but from yesterday it displays message permanently & can't watch TV show.Any idea what could be the reason..???

 

[gopichandpai]

Looks like stb issue. Try cleaning the slot where you insert the card with a paper or cloth. If it doesn't work you need to get it repaired.

 

[umapati]

Looks like stb issue. Try cleaning the slot where you insert the card with a paper or cloth. If it doesn't work you need to get it repaired.

Ya i did the same but the problem still persist so called up cable guy to get it repaired..Hope he can solve the issue..By the way..Is it possible to replace the card itself if it is found faulty ? OR what can be done ?
