Breaking IPTV Services To Start By Airtel For Fiber/AirFiber Customers

[Ashok Varma]

Hi bros I don't understand why everyone want to see star 4k in iptv, it is already available in dth.I feel dth quality of star 4k will be far batter than what they provide in iptv. U will also be charged like dth only they will not provide it for free

Bro Is Star 4K channel (Rs 100/-) can be select in Rs 350/- DTH money of Airtel? but after Airtel-Tata play merger, all fiber/airfiber users will migrate to iptv, then Airtel’s pure DTH users will be migrated to G-sat of Tata play.

They will definitely compress the channels in iptv otherwise it will not be smooth.
As someone told the bandwidth of star 4k is 15mbps it means the connection speed should be atleast 150mbps and ur iptv box should be beside wifi router with only 5ghz band or it should be connected with lanport which will not provide more than 100mbps

I feel it is actually a downgrade and they are saving the costs and man power.

Star 4k in iptv is 10mbps with dolby vision. And only 15mbps is needed for smooth streaming of star 4k using iptv. Moreover they use Google cdn which is one of the best for streaming.

Which platform has star 4k in 10mbps? Is it hotstar?

Yes u can but u have to pay extra 100 or change to ncf pack and select the channels u like till the total price is 350,then u no need to pay extra.

What I feel is once they launch iptv they might decrease the current offer of providing channels worth 350 to may be 200,Who knows? airtel is smart enough to make money.

Very good point, I agree. People whoever curious now will eventually regret later after seeing the service.
