hope Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Well I don't have to pay nearly as much as for a HD set top box / connection , so yeah I'd rather wait a ball to see it, and use the ad break to go do something else It won't be long before they start sneaking ads into HD broadcasts too, just give it a few years. right bro.but HD is glorious to watch.huge diff between HD and SD.

Solitaire Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 We can also pause any ball and do anything else whenever we want Question is, would you dare pause the ball if you were watching a live broadcast... what happens if a crucial wicket falls and you have to watch it delayed by a few minutes Would you rather hear about it first from the collective "ooohhh" that goes up from the neighbour's place?

But you are forced to hear it from the ohhhh from neighbour's place btw yes I do pause live match. e.g during the ind-pak match, I got an imp. call from China for a few minutes. I paused the match and talked to the guy. Meanwhile a wicket fell and I was able to watch it easily by just f.fwding through the last 5 minutes in 30 seconds and then caught up to live as well Edit: Forgot to mention that the HD feed is also slightly ahead of the normal feed as I noticed..

Are you nuts? I don't pause the feed cos I can't and I'm always back before the half/1-minute break ends, so I see it all live anyway that is anyway the case with dth owners viz a viz local cable viewers ... f**k that lag Which is why I have both . 4 connections in fact, 2 cable and 2 Dish TV.

Ah yes, I missed that wicket cos I stopped watching when the wickets started falling. Was like "ok I'll just watch the end of this innings" lol.

Shantz Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 hey how to get the ESPN HD channel ?? am using airtel HD set top box. whom to call ? how much is it for ? how will the payment be made ? we have already paid for an yearly package no use buying espn hd. ESPN HD is shut down now. The finals will be shown on Star Cricket HD, so buy that. I think you can activate it by calling cust care and topping up extra amount in your account.
