Hey watching IPL. It's HD, Max HD. Kudos to TataSky.

Hope F1 too was in HD. ESPNStar, are you listening?

Cheers!

Does anyone know if Airtel DTH will broadcast Set Max in HD? Looks like tata Sky and Sun are the only ones doing it now.

Thanks Addy. I did not not even know this! Folks were watching on the normal channel. I had to do was to flip the channel to get HD and I did not know!

Since firmware auto upgrade today on TS HD+, Star TV HD is 16:9/1080i HD and more channels added - StarONE HD, Star Movies HD and Star World HD.

I have mega package and still asking money (Rs 40/PM each) for Star Movies HD and Star World HD.

Airtel is allowing free viewing of Movies Now and CBeebies till April 18th of channel no: 195 and 354 respectively.

I have a TATA SKY HD and i can only view Discovery HD, Nat GEO HD, Star Plus & IPL on MAX HD.

Star Movies and Star World on HD would be wonderful. I checked Tata Sky site and was unable to find any information on the same.

I am wondering that as Formula 1 is sourced only in HD what stops Tatasky from shwing it in HD instead of scaling it down/truncating. The StarSport HD channel is missing on the HD box now.

yajaman99 · 15th April 2011, 17:56

Wow, i am eager to get home now , just saw the screenshots from BreakingNews.

yajaman99 · 15th April 2011, 23:05

All I will say is HD rocks, LCD deserves to be used with these channels.
TataSKy HD a Big Thank You. Star World/Movies HD is just superb, i still need to check the 5.1 sound.
