Yes they are testing new channels. I went to their website they have a forum on it now where you can ask questions, they respond to it, you can request for channels.
According their website tv.tt they are planning to bring on 5 new channels next month,
MTV,VH1,BET,B4U Movies and B4U Music.

I also heard that the current package will be pulled soon and replaced with a slightly more expensive, they are doing this as they bring on more channels, however those that sign up early continue to get the extra channels for free.

I heard they are also testing some new STB's. From the same source I heard they are working on launching a killer internet package like they have done with TV.

So far its looking very promising, they are moving very quick and delivering.

that would be illegal ...... even directv had to find a way to block stations ....

took them bout ten years to figure that out though :lol:

... but they do block stations now during live programs that they don't have the rights for.

a friend of mine has the green dot service...and it's not bad for the price but i will stick to my directv till there quality is up to par

You can go on to their forum and request channels, they seem to be good are responding. I heard that the forum is responded by their excutives and not some customer service or tech rep.

I am now getting BET and VH1 although they said they are testing it, its always on.

Anyone heard anything more about TSTT IPTV service ?

Postby **Team Loco** » October 17th, 2009, 3:28 pm

those dvb boxes usually run a variant of linux and there are many clones/diy available.
are their boxes locked down or can anybody with a dvb linux box receive the signal ?

Postby **M_2NR** » November 30th, 2009, 10:48 am

who else having minor probs with service?
like gayelle NEVER showing, CNC3 blank out yesterday all day and IBN fovever glitching?

Rodn3y · Postby **Rodn3y** » November 30th, 2009, 11:26 am

picture quality on some channels are good, some are fuzzy. the sound on some are good and some are soft and sound like an echo of some sort.

one of our stations is not working and the customer service person could not help us in any way, all she said was that they are working on it and she cant give any more info.

i think it sucks, all that money for 2 movie channels and crappy sound and picture.

i guess if you live somewhere with good service it might work better for you. there is a quality level for each channel and mine is always low.

Direct Tv has a lot more movie channels etc. i fine both show the same quality
