A Video comparing D2H and Dish True HD Plus, Direct to Home services. The context of the comparison is 2015. Both are Very competitively featured, Priced and strategically placed in the market. I would honestly say, Comparison of HD DTH services in India is a tough job to accomplish with accuracy an detail. The Dish Tv box retails for Rs.1890 and Videocon D2H HD stb retails for Rs.1820. But you could get better offers for DTH from komparify, amazon dealers, ebay etc.. I have bought both of my DTH stb online. Buying DTH stb online is not a tough job, you just book online and CC will call you asking for address verification and installation. Thtz it.

In this video i have tried my best to keep things clear by explaining each of the specifications and features of these models. I have used both the STB for a period of 2 months before making this video. The video i created was of almost 50 min. All the specifications and features of these 2 models were compared in detail. Since i found it pretty long i have divided it into 2 parts. The part-2 will be made available by tomorrow evening. This is the 3rd video in my " Let's Compare" Series. Hope this helps someone to understand what's more important when it comes from a user stand point since most of the time what is good on paper is not so good in reality. In this video i have added text overlays to explain why on particular feature set is important in the long term use of a DTH service. Channel packages were discussed in detail in part2 of this video. Hardware specifications and looks were discussed and heating problem was addressed in the second part. Currently 4 on going series of videos are there 1. LG WebOs Tv Reviews 2. WebOS Apps Review 3. Let's Compare Series 4. Home Theater Setups Series 5. What i Think ! Series (Upcoming - Starts Next Monday) DTH Buyers Guide Prices will be the same across most of the country, apart from local taxes, but the quality of service can vary wildly due to local contractors and other factors. Here are a few points to check out when deciding which operator to go with. 1. Number of channels: Check each DTH provider’s brochure or website check how many of the channels on offer are actually worth paying for. You might find that your favorite channels are spread across different bouquets. 2. Broadcast Quality: Check with family or friends in the neighborhood who already have a DTH connection. See if you can get a personal demo of the quality of the picture and sound. 3. Pre- and post-sales support: See if anyone you know has had problems while having the service installed or later on, but note that these experiences also depend on local contractors, so can’t always indicate problems with the provider itself. 4. Quality and user-friendliness of the STB: While getting your demos of each of the DTH services, try to spend some time using the STB’s interface. Check if it’s easy to switch channels, surf through the program guide, and navigate the menus. The remote control should also be comfortable, easy to use and have buttons for major functions rather than forcing you to go through menus. 5. Recharging options: One of the most important, yet easily overlooked aspects of a DTH service is the ease of recharging your account. Check for the available options—online transactions, prepaid vouchers, auto-debit, phone banking, etc are a few methods. 6. Interactive channels and services: These are important if you are looking for more than just channel surfing 7. Hidden costs: Don’t finalize any deal without knowing the fine print. 8. Future readiness: Check to see whether the STBs have all the audio and video output interfaces you need. (eg 4k support) 9. Recording: If you would like to pause live TV or record shows to watch later, opt for a service which offers a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) STB right from the beginning, since upgrading later will involve a lot of cost and inconvenience. 10.
