Dolby Digital Plus, also known as Enhanced AC-3 (and commonly abbreviated as DD+ or E-AC-3, or EC-3) is a digital audio compression scheme developed by Dolby Labsfor transport and storage of multi-channel digital audio. It is a successor to Dolby Digital (AC-3), also developed by Dolby, and has a number of improvements including support for a wider range of data rates (32 Kbit/s to 6144 Kbit/s), increased channel count and multi-program support (via substreams), and additional tools (algorithms) for representing compressed data and counteracting artifacts. While Dolby Digital (AC-3) supports up to 5 full-bandwidth audio channels at a maximum bitrate of 640 Kbit/s, E-AC-3 supports up to 15 full-bandwidth audio channels at a maximum bitrate of 6.144 Mbit/s.

all HD channels are audio clarity and picture clarity changed some crispy in hvec boxes thanks to sundth,
some SD channels clarity also improved.
i think next customer side software will be update then all HVEC format complete wait for update

When they will add more HD channels any info abt it

Bitrate decresed to 192 kbps

Not adding any sd channels worst channel addtion

Sun direct always sleeping.

Bitrate decresed to 192 kbps

any experts in Sound can clarify my doubt

Sun Direct Deploys India's First All-IP HEVC DTH Delivery Workflow With Harmonic here it says sd can add more hd channels with using harmonic tech with low bit rates("enable Sun Direct to deliver an additional 80 HD channels from four transponders to subscribers, with crystal-clear video quality at the lowest possible bitrates")

I think checking bitrate is not the wise option in my view
