Not following govt norms. Sun direct (stb's) not interoperable

neo001

what i have seen all around in last few days about sun direct stb's. As their was a lot of comments available on net about the interoperability.

Further i have seen some about Sun direct stb's that those stb's are provided by sun direct are not interoperable, though it was true that MPEG 4 technology is better then mpeg2 but in india we are still having mpeg2.

As per my understanding of technology (though i am not a tech person) and govt rules about interoperability is that
" all stb's from all service providers are both ways interoperable, like dishtv and tata sky have as both are on MPEG2 and are interoperable with each other. but this is not the case with sun dth.

If govt made this mandatory that all service provider should have same stb standards and are interoperable then what happens. as sun is having MPEG4 and it is bacward interoperable with mpeg2 but not both ways .then will sun direct replace all stb's or what will they do.

In other words they are just violating govt rules due to high political influence, and also taking undue advantage of being in govetnment.

I have seen all this information floating on net...can we start a discussion here also based on same thing and what's wrong or right.

Interportability is simply a joke in India.

Inspite of TRAI regulation; NO DTH OPERATOR IS FOLLOWING TRAI RULE AND MAKING HARD KICKs ON TRAI's BACK.

Oh God save this country

Please keep politics off the forum.

Its ok to discuss the rights and wrongs of the issue, but do not bring politics into it - it only leads to bad feeling
