Suggestion For LCD-DTH

2009-08-10T21:30:00.001+05:30

I read your article on "How to connect DTH to PC" and wondered if you had information along the lines that I am looking for.

My requirement is to get a DTH connection (yet to purchase one) to work with my 24" Full HD Dell monitor.

I am considering either DishTV's special STB which has a VGA out OR use an External TV tuner card.
I tried an Intex External TV Tuner and the output on my monitor was really bad (used Hathway cable STB as the source in this case).

Do you have any experience in terms of DishTV's VGA out quality?

There are some high end TV Tuner cards which support DVI output (from AverMedia), but I am a bit hesitant to invest in that due to the high price (Rs. 7000+) and no guarantee of what output to expect.

Any pointers from your side would be helpful.

-> As you have FullHD Monitor, I suggest you to go for Dish-TV as its interface has enough graphics and suitable for a FullHD LCD.

As in your case the video quality matters, External TV Tuners will give u very bad picture quality (as you have also experienced), it doesn't matter whether you have Hathway or a DTH, your Picture Quality will be extremely bad.

As per Dish-TV VGA Set-top-box, it has some built in settings, which will not let the picture quality to miss as those Set-top-box also supports LCD-TV's.

I suggest you don't invest such huge amount of money in things like "AverMedia", i mean to say such non-standered brand. Instead invest about 1000/- in DishTV's VGA Set-top-box, and have a better video output than TV Tuners.

I Purchased A SATA DVD Writer - Samsung SH-S223F Around 2 Months Ago.

Used It To Burn A Few DVD's/CD's And All Was Fine. But Just The Day Before When I Used It To Write A DVD At 8x Speed And Another At 16x Speed Both The Times It Took Almost An Hour To Burn The DVD. The Writing Took Nearly 45 Min And The Verifying To Another 10-15 Mins.

The DVD Is Fine, No Errors, Nothing, But Then, Any Idea Why The Sudden Drop In Speed Of Burning A DVD?

It Is Running On Its Latest Firmware- SB03.

Tips For Buying LCD TV

2009-05-12T17:05:00.000+05:30

This Is The World Where The Dealers Love To Cheat The Buyers, Coupled With Misleading & Incomplete Specifications On Part Of Manufacturers.

I Found Many People Posting Threads On Most Forums, "Buying A LCD TV" OR "Need Help, Buying A LCD TV", And The Most Of The Threads Include "What Is HDReady?" & "What Is FullHD?"

After Having A Survey In My Town, I Found That The Dealers Don't Keep FullHD LCD's, Nor The Dealers Know What Is FullHD & Also People Lack Of It, People Just Go And Ask For A LCD TV, Check For 26",29", 32" & Buy It.

See This

SONY Bravia KLV-32V400A : V-Series

Specification :

LCD Screen Size : 32" (81 cm), 16:9

Panel Resolution : 1366 x 768

Computer Formats : 640 x 480, 60Hz, 800 x 600, 56, 60Hz, 1024 x 768, 60Hz, 1280 x 720, 60Hz, 1280 x 768, 60Hz

Supported Signal : 480i, 576i, 480p, 576p, 1080i, 720p, 1080p.

The Specification Tells Us That This TV Accepts Signal Input Up to 1080p (1920 x 1080) Resolution, But Can Only Display It Upto (1366 x 768) Which Is The Panel Resolution, So If You View A 1080p HD Movie On This TV, The Internal Decoders Will Convert The (1920 x 1080) Relsolution Of The Movie To (1366 x 768), So What You See On The TV Is Not 1080p i.e High Definition.

Take Another Example

Lets Take A FullHD (1080p)

SONY Bravia KLV-32W400A : W-Series

Specification:
LCD Screen Size : 32" (81 cm), 16:9

Panel Resolution : 1920 x 1080

Computer Formats : NOT MENTIONED

Supported Signal : 480i, 576i, 480p, 576p, 1080i, 720p, 1080.

The Above Specification Is Clear And Tells Us This Is A FullHD TV, It Accepts Signal Upto 1080p And Displays It At (1920 x 1080) i.e FullHD, So If You View A 1080p HD Movie On This TV, Their Will Be No Conversion And Movie Will Itself Be Displayed At (1920 x 1080) Resolution, So What You See Is Itself HighDefinition (HD).

So While Buying A LCD TV, Just See The Panel Resolution, Not The Supported Resolution.

BSNL BroadBand Plan Change For Beginners

2009-05-05T17:53:00.000+05:30

Plan Change Is Very Tricky And Includes Many Hidden Charges, Generally Plan Change Occurs On 1st Of Every Month Sometimes Exception.
To Change The BroadBand Plan Give An Application To The Nearest Zonal Or Local BSNL Telephone Exchange. I Recommend You To Submit Your Form On 29th Of Month.

Download Application Format

The Hell Starts From 1st

The Risk Applies To All The Plans Hear Are The Examples :

Changing Plan From Home 250 To Home 500

Home 250 Plan Has 1GB Of Downloads Free At The Speed Of 256kbps To 2mbps
Home 500 Plan Has 2.5GB Of Downloads Free At The Speed Of 256kbps To 2mbps & Bonus Night Unlimited.

Precautions To Be Taken When Changing Plan From Home 250 To Home 500 / 500C / 500C+

Don't Be In A Hurry To Start Night Downloading On 1st Of Month, Because Sometime BSNL Has Not Activated Your Plan At Night, If Also It Is Activated The Too Don't Download On 1st Of Month.

Sometimes BSNL Activates Your Plan At 8.00am Or Later, So Avoid The Risk.

Start Heavy Night Downloading From 3rd Date Of The Month To Be Safe Enough. Before Downloading Check Whether Your Plan Has Been Changed.

How To Check Whether My Plan Has Been Changed?
--> To Check Whether The Plan Has Been Changed, Logon To http://data.bsnl.in
Over There Type Your Portal ID And Password.

After Logging In Select "My Orders", In My Orders Type Your Telephone Number With STD Code For Example xxxx#xxxxxx

Leave Service UserID Blank And Click On Search Order

The Following Screen Must Appear

Check The Plan Name : Home 500 And In Order Status If "Provisioned" Is Displayed The Only Your Plan Is Changed Or Else Not. And Also Check The Service Effective Date.

Service Effective Date Is The Date From When The Plan Gets Activated, Sometimes The Date Is 2nd Of Month Also Sometimes Its 5th Of Month. Means On 5th OR 2nd Your Plan Gets Activated & And If You Download Before The Service Effective Date Then You Are Chrged For The Download.

In Short : Start Night Downloading From 5th Of The Month. After Checking Whether Plan Is Changed.

Changing Plan From Home 250 OR Home 500 To Home 750UL

Home 250 Plan Has 1GB Of Downloads Free At The Speed Of 256kbps To 2mbps
Home 500 Plan Has 2.5GB Of Downloads Free At The Speed Of 256kbps To 2mbps & Bonus Night Unlimited. While Home 750UL Stands For Unlimited, Means Total Unlimited No Extra Charges Than 750 + Tax.

Start Heavy Downloading From 3rd Date Of The Month To Be Safe Enough. Before Downloading Check Whether Your Plan Has Been Changed.

As Previously You Had Home 250 OR Home 500 Plan, BSNL Provides A Speed Os 2MBPS On Unlimited For First 7 - 8 Days, Some People Think That The Plan Has Not Been Changed. Don't Worry If The Order Status Shows Provisioned Then Your Plan Is Changed.

I Think Its Too Much You Have Understand. All The Hidden Charges And Tricks Of BSNL During Plan Change.
