Sun Direct General Discussions, Help & Queries

[WizarD]

Not like that bro, Sun is also having seperate channels in Malayalam, so they will do Politics also there they will not bother about trp ratings at all

But in Malayalam, Surya is already down.
Adding Zee Keralam not going to affect them. If added, all will at least subscribe as MRP is 0.10.

Actually as of now there is nothing in Zee Keralam worth to watch(Except 2 serials). All other shows are outdated. Even Zee's popular dance show's Malayalam version can't attract viewers since Mazhavil manorama tried it in a better format. By the bye the channel is from a major network in India so it must be added.

New TRAI rule really bad..I used to pay 230 rs for my Sundirect dth which have regional ,English,sports etc..Now while I used trais's channel selector tool price for total channels I used to see are almost 400 ..I am really disappointed

Dth settop boxes are slow. Some time hanging.
Compare to sun settopbox , sun boxes are speedy UI and so many customercare/ service points. HD quality of sun is very good.
D2h is in sinking ship.
Don't make hurry decision s. Wait at least one month. , watch implementation of TRAI rules.

Don't know if you got some kind of "lucky settopbox".

• New HD Sundirect connection bought in Jan this year. Problem started within 1 week.
• Sun settopbox very slow to respond. Takes atleast 3 seconds for red light to switch to green light in settopbox after switching on with remote.
• Takes >10-20 seconds for picture to appear. after swtching on.
• Atleast 5-6 times so far, blank screen with no picture on any any channels (but channel name/no. appears). Problem gets resolved after 20-30 minutes after repeatedly switching on/off the settopbox.
• we called Sundirect CC many times since last 4-5 days. Only today, they have agreed to send technician.
• We had dishtv connection for>10 years with almost no problems. Sun direct problems started within 1 month.

We are now hoping TRAI introduce portability of set top boxes so that we can shift to other dth, we are sick and tired of Sun CC.

About Sun UI.
Sun UI - speed? - is it a joke?
When compared to dishtv Sun UI is worst.

• If we click on some channel no. in dishtv, if that has no channel, then it display nearest channel automatically. But in sundirect , it does not change channel at all.
• Sun UI takes lot of time for the program info of channels to appear.
• Sun UI - only 2 programs displayed. In dishtv, program for entire day can be seen.
• Sun UI- if channel selected based on genre by clicking on ok button, then no other genre channel can be changed to until we return the genre to all tv channels.

About Sun picture quality, never thought there would be visible difference in picture quality between sd and hd, but in sun direct, sd quality is worst, hd quality is ok.

My suggestion - go for any DTH except sundirect.
