True Tatasky's picture quality is very bad. Recently I switched from cable to Tatasky. The very reason why i switched to DTH is that, in cable we cannot watch during power cuts - though we have UPS at home. Today, I regret for buying tatasky (completely dissatisfied) and I can clearly find the difference in picture quality. Though I have good Sony OLed Tv, PQ looks like old MP4 video. Few of my observations:
- SD Channels PQ is very poor (can clearly observe during fast moving scenes) and HD channels PQ is just better.
- Audio quality is good. I am facing an issue with STB - whenever i switch on the STB, the audio is not coming up, I need to restart the STB to get audio and had already reported this to customer care.
- Channels are shuffled like anything. Movies, Music, General Entertainment channels are jumbled (for eg: if we take tamil regional channels, news channels, music channels, general entertainment channels are jumbled and not in order) which makes us to search for channels every time.
- Very difficult to remember the channel numbers again since channels are not in order
- Letters / scrolls in news channels are dull, blurred, pixelated
- PQ of english channels like HBO, AXN, Star Movies and many Hindi channels are very bad.
When a cable tv MSO (i was using HD STB) able to provide good PQ, premium service provider Tatasky has to first look into this and fix PQ issue as we can see many reporting the same issue.
