theneurotoxin Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 ESPN HD still hasn't been activated. All the other channels are working fine. THe CC told me it will take an hour or so to activatebrought it off their website yesterday... Few more details: No plans for existing customers (Currently) The same dish and wire can be used if you are an existing customer The remote is almost the same, except for a minor cosmetic change You can select upto 1080i resolution The box comes with 2 USB ports and an ethernet port Comes with HDMI, Component, Composite connection options and SPDIF SD quality looks the same what are they used for?

Don't worry Airtel aint much better. They took nearly 15 hours to activate ESPN HD. On top of that had to call up their CC 5 times yesterday to rectify my account balance...

Man In The Box Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I called up Tata Sky customer support today for enquiring about the HD channels and the scheme. They told me that sports channels like ESPN and Star Sports will only show HD broadcast for the world cup and after that they will switch to SD again .
