{Pics} Newly Added Channels on DD Direct+

[Gssran]

Originally Sony Mix is a Paid channel on c-band Intelsat 20,
But now all users can enjoy a quality music channel Fta on Insat 4 B via DD Direct +.

 

[Prashant Shridhar]

I think people who are saying dd direct plus is waste now gone to silent zone....

 

[Pugazhbalaji]

what about france 24 and ABC ?

 

[srinivas33]

No news till now. I think they will be added after Nov 7th, as there are some adjustments to be made.

Is there any empty functioning transponder after the power supply problem in Insat 4B? As there are plans to increase the number of channels to about 97?

 

[Prashant Shridhar]

Yes,very high chance before lok sabha poll..

 

[srinivas33]

Let us see what happens.

In lyngsat for Insat4B 11197 V and 11528 V are in grey color and showing "feeds", what does this mean? Are they empty and usable?

 

[Prashant Shridhar]

Yes,these are feed.
Asitpaul sir and jenius jatt sir specilist for giving details of this type of questions...
So over to these gentleman...

 

[srinivas33]

Waiting for their reply.

 

[DXer]

Nice SS... great to see Sony Mix..

 

[AsitPaul]

I think this TPs now used for feeds, software update or various related data.

Dont know much more beyond this. Or who is using (cBand/Ku).

Most probably dd dth will adopt MPEG4 Tech to carry proposed 97 Channels. As shared earlier, 59 TV avail on MPEG2, remaining on MPEG4.

But presently in MPEG2 too, they can add few channel more if they utilize TPs by modern technology.

I am not 'specialist' in this matter. Just want to explore FTA channels buy using cheap STB and 90cm Ku Dish!

Now its high time for Tata Sky to add SONY MIX in Dhamal Mix Pack and onwards. But I hardly believe they will do so.
