Before we commence our first blog post for this year we take this opportunity once again to wish our valued bloggers, the management and staff of Dialog TV "A Happy & Prosperous 2008".
On the 1st of January Dialog TV launched the replacement for SRTV known as TBO (Tamil Box Office". This is a commercial free channel that broadcasts Tamil language movies in a format similar to movie channel HBO. As per the information that we are receiving this channel is of Singaporean origin. At present Dialog have already added the EPG for the channel but we are unable to locate a website related to this channel and if anyone of our bloggers find the "TBO" website please email us the address so that we can update this blog.
In other news the Cartoon Network EPG on Dialog TV is wrong since Dialog TV is displaying the Cartoon Network India schedule where as they are now telecasting Cartoon Network Asia. The BBC World EPG is wrong due to an error in calculating Sri Lanka Time. We hope that these are corrected in due course. There are rumors of a move from Nick India to Nick Asia by next week but we are unable to confirm this.
Dialog have decided to charge Rs 50/= after March 31st for the "CiTi HiTz" channel but "CiTi HiTz" was launched by removing "SET SAB" which replaced "Animax". "SET SAB" was available for the higher level packages at no additional cost so asking people who are in the higher level packages to pay an additional Rs 50/= for "CiTi HiTz" is not ethical. All packages that received "Animax" or "SET SAB" should receive "CiTi HiTz" at no additional cost. In addition the Set Plan that contained Star World consisted of SET SAB too for a total cost of Rs 100/=. We request our bloggers who are on Set Plans to inform us whether they continued to pay Rs 100/= even though SET SAB was off air or was the price of the Set Plan reduced due to the discontinuation of SET SAB? We hope that Dialog would be fair in their allocation of CiTi HiTz to the packages and make sure that the packages that received Animax or SET SAB would receive "CiTi HiTz" at no additional cost.
Please keep us updated on the latest on Dialog TV as the days progress.
