A Short Introduction To DISH Network

So you are looking for quality satellite TV entertainment? There are two main satellite TV providers in the US, DirecTV and Dish Network. DirecTV has larger market share but in this article we will focus on Dish Network because we believe that Dish Network provides better value for money currently.

Dish Network® (Nasdaq:DISH) has more than 13 million satellite TV customers (April 2009 estimate) and is the second largest provider of advanced digital TV services in the US. DISH Network's services include hundreds of audio and video channels, DISH On Demand, Pay-Per-View, Interactive TV, High Definition TV, sports and International programming. They also have free Standard Professional Installation and 24-hour customer service. DISH Network is a Fortune 500 company so it is likely to be around in future.

Dish Network service is offered all over the US including Hawaii, Puerto Rico and Alaska. Outside the continental United States a larger dish will normally be needed to receive a clear signal. The size of the dish may range from 24-inches to a 1.5 meter dish depending on the location.

Dish Network has a large number of packages matching all kinds of viewing needs. Some examples are:

Standard-Definition Packages:

DishFamily: Over 50 channels of low-priced, family-friendly programming.

Dish Network offers free Professional Installation by qualified technicians and can be installed within 24 hours. You have the choice of getting up to 4 rooms connected at no extra charge. Each room will get its own DVR high definition box allowing different channels to be viewed at the same time in different rooms.

Dish Network Pay-Per-View offers movies and events in high definition. In order to view HD programs, you must have an high definition television in addition to an HD capable satellite receiver and a DISH 500 antenna. Pay-Per-View movies can be ordered by following means: Online, Telephone Automated System, Customer Service and Mobile Service.

Ordering online is one of most popular ways to order Pay–Per–View movies and events. It works exactly the same as the Telephone Automated System except you do not have to call in. The movie or event that you order will be broadcast to all satellite receivers in your home.

The Telephone Automated System is designed for customers who are unable to have their satellite receiver consistently connected to a phone line, but do not move around. There is an extra charge per transaction with this option, which is added on to your bill.

You can call Customer Support Center and a representative can order a Pay–Per–View for you. There is an additional for ordering a Pay–Per–View (sports packages are excluded) through a representative.

Mobile Service is for people on the go, such as truck drivers and RV owners. You can order up to nine movies before your smart card becomes full. Once your smart card becomes full you will need to connect your receiver to a phone line in order to clear the purchases. This service incurs an annual charge (not available monthly), and is only available on one receiver per account.

The options described above should enable you to choose a package with ad-ons in order to satisfy your viewing needs.

Mere High-definition Tv Could Soon Be Lo-tech

If you have just blown the budget on a new high-definition TV, look away now. Japanese broadcasters and the BBC are working on a system 33 times more detailed than the best sets on the market.

The BBC plans to use the technology, named Super Hi-Vision by its Japanese makers, to screen coverage of the 2012 Olympics on big screens in city centres across Britain.

Today's high-definition television is still in its embryonic stages in the UK. But most of the larger, flat screens sets on sale today are HD-ready and the BBC has launched a permanent high-definition channel available on cable and satellite.

Satellite TV giant Sky and cable operator Virgin offer high-definition services to subscribers with the requisite set-top boxes and compatible televisions. But researchers in Tokyo and Surrey are already working on better, sharper pictures.

Within seven years, the Japanese public broadcaster NHK hopes to begin test broadcasts of its Super Hi-Vision system, with full-time public broadcasts scheduled for 2025.

Some doubt whether the enhancements of ultra-high definition are discernible, but Nobuyuki Hiruma, associate director at NHK's laboratories in Tokyo, is sure they are. "Super Hi-Vision TV is necessary to cover the ability of human vision. It is based on research into human vision."

At present, Super Hi-Vision exists only at NHK's Broadcasting Center in Tokyo, where it is projected on to a 10 meter by 5.5 meter screen, accompanied by 22 multi-layered speakers capable of replicating the sound of a concert hall.

Only 20 minutes of footage can be recorded at any one time and it has to be edited frame by frame. Even then, making a back-up takes the engineers an entire night, and after a week they have only enough material for one hour of Super Hi-Vision TV.

Sitting just three meters from a 450-inch screen, viewers often have an instant reaction to the picture. "Sometimes we suffer motion sickness," says Masaru Kanazawa, research engineer on the SHV project. These large screens would not fit in most living rooms, but Kanazawa thinks they soon might.

Hiroyuki Ohira, general manager of Pioneer's plasma development center in Yamanashi, is in charge of the same team that, in the 1990s, invented the first high-definition plasma screens. "We are trying to develop a Super Hi-Vision panel to help NHK realize its broadcast plans," he said.

The two broadcasters often collaborate on program production, most recently on the David Attenborough-narrated documentary Planet Earth which was filmed in high definition and introduced a number of new techniques.

Last November NHK had its high definition television cameras strapped to a Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency lunar probe to film an "Earth rise" over the moon in stunning detail.

The problem of how to transmit huge amounts of data remains. But NHK is using Dirac video compression technology for its Super Hi-Vision testing - a technology invented by the BBC.

Through Participate, an EU-funded project promoting public interaction with new technology, BBC engineers are getting involved in events using large outdoor screens. "Super Hi-Vision feeds nicely into that and it's definitely a long-term ambition," said Andy Bower, interim controller of the BBC Research and Innovation Centre.
