Got a new Tata Sky + Transfer Connection - Details

[jdrocks]

What do you mean by single wire? You mean a single wire can be used with splitter for two tuner?

No. The new TS transfer STB has 3 tuners and is technically capable of recording 3 programs together with 3 inbuilt tuners. Currently though only 2 tuners are activated. And it has only one antenna input, so requires only one wire from dish antenna. No splitter required.

What I understood is on Tatasky plus HD there were two antenna "in" = provide two tuners while in tatasky plus transfer there is one antenna "in" = provides three tuners

Yes, a splitter was used in TS+ HD but it is not needed in TS+ transfer box. Only one 'Antenna in' post is built into the box. It works with all 3 tuners.

Hi Guys,

As I wanted to get a DVR which works with a single wire, I decided to ditch my ADTV HD DVR and get a TS HD DVR.

Last Thursday, I placed an order of TS website for a Transfer box.

I got a call within 20 mins and asked them to come in the evening for installation. They came on time and installed it in 30 mins. They setup the WiFi and told me how to get stuff from VOD.

We also tested the Transfer feature which worked as expected but programs from Star channels are not available. These are not listed as excluded channels on TS website so I need to find out from them why these aren't available.

Everything was done pretty quickly and the overall experience was good.

Here are the pictures of the STB:





I noticed that the word 'Transfer' was added on the STB and the box as an afterthought. Some digging on one side of the box revealed that the product was going to be named "2GO". That would have been a better name but I guess the features they offer are very limited at the moment so they decided to rename it ""Transfer".



I setup the universal remote myself as the installation guy was not able to make it work. The two page manual for the remote was very helpful. But ADTV's remote is better. TS has a dumb "Univ" button i need to press before I can turn my TV on and off or change input. Thankfully, no need to do that for the volume buttons.







I have a screencast of Transfer working on my phone. Will upload that as well soon.

Adding three screenshots of the interface:

Can u share me the rear view of the Stb
