Siti cables is a group of companies which provide different services. Siti cables provide digital cable TV network in various states of India. In Kolkata they provide digital cable service.
The good side those I can think of them are
1) they have made 4 channel packages at relatively low cost.
2) Service quality is moderately ok type.
3) LCO s are easily available in case of service disruptions.
Now the bad part,
1) For some time the old 4:3 television screens are being replaced by a newer type 16:9 screen. The ratios indicate the television screen aspect ratio. Since the 4:3 screens are in the process of being phased out it is expected that the digital cable TV network will accept the change and will provide the signal in both 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio. But with utter surprise the package that I was being given(I don't know what package! I am coming to the point later) only provides/ or the settop box only provides signals in 4:3 aspect ratio. I have a newer LCD television set, that has a 16:9 screen aspect ratio. I have noticed(also many SITI digital cable TV network customers have noticed it too) that the figures and faces look a bit distorted, Like length shortens and breadth widens. I rectified the problem by adjusting the screen in 4:3 aspect as a result some parts of the screen on left and right side remain inactive.
Update: now siti cables provide bills with package information. Also they have introduced HD set top box, I hope they have brought 16:9 format there.
