Jadoo Tv, Does anyone have it?

[sehsan]

Guys,
Is anyone using this?how many channels come in there? Does GEO Super, TEN Sports and other sports channels come? How is the quality.

Please advice

Thanks

[On_the_up]

Hope they show Pakistan cricket matches, might even win a few with the channel name like that

[Mohsin]

Reading the title i thought someone had launched one of those 'Ajmeri Baba' type channels!
This is the UK right?

[Zaad]

[On_the_up]

What type of programs do they show?

[Inswinger]

Since Jadoo TV works using the internet you can expect plenty of buffering and freezing. Some people say it's worth it but most tend to say that it's a waste of $200. It's like watching an online stream but on your tv.

[mamoo gogo]

I heard its just online streaming links being played...can someone tell me which the URLs for the streams....thanks...

[Zaad]

guys

seriously dont buy

its bascailly like hooking up your laptop to ur tv

thats all and it does buffer


its has geo tv geo news
geo supe or tensports whichever one is streaming
star plus
b4u movies, music

and few others stupid channels

not worth $200 seriously

[insaftak]

Geo super, i have seen it at my uncle's home and this works perfect,

[Khabri420]

Lulz, so Jadoo shows MTA....so qadiyanis must be their biggest customers

what i am trying to find out is, are the getting the free links from the web or they have some kind of server?

I never saw free GEO super link online? Have anyone?

[malikvslee]

I have jadoo tv and I watch whole twenty20 world cup
They show all pakistani matches if u have highspeed Internet than it's very good

[feather]

Plenty of people have it here in NYC. Almost everyone I know who can't have dish at their apartment etc have this. You do get all the channels and cricket however the quality is weak. I mean if your someone who has multiple big HD TV's in your house...do you really want to watch anything that resembles online streams.

yes you will if you cant put DISH network.

How does it work? How they are able to stream that many channels. I have never seen a GEO SUPER link online. I just wonder how they get that?

Then I guess it is understandable. How do they do it well they stream the channels. Whoever is selling the boxes is doing it. My best guess it is based on SopCast like technology within the box.

A friend of mine had this idea when SopCast came out couple of years ago. At the time I told ended up telling him no one would be interested. :x

Anyway you can get one of these from Jackson height for roughly $150 and long as you have cable internet you will be fine since it is pretty fast internet.

I heard there is another one too IPV or something which costs about $130 of course it was only matter of time someone was going to copy the idea.

[naankabab]

its crap...
there are links to channel which can be found by google easily..
they dnt have any server.
there are no good sports channel. if ur thinkin abt cricket willow/ pak passion deal is the best bet

[Looney]

I was thinking of buying it. It costs $300 in Canada. Should i buy it?

[Inswinger]

$200 is way too much but not all other channels are stupid, Hum tv is one of the best Pakistani entertainment channel right now. ( I have heard good things about ARY too). I wouldn't pay more than $35 for this sort of package. There are other options in the market, i will post a link of a much cheaper option when i get home.

[Waseem]

http://www.wodtv.net/ is a pretty good option.
The only thing is that they don't offer Geo sports, there is TEN sports(good for cricket) on offer though.

I have tried a lot to find a GEO SUPER LINK online, can you or anyone find it for me?
Thanks

Thanks Waseem,
i am looking at their website and i cant find how much they are offering for GEO TV & TEN Sports. Does they have any package?

How is the quality on TV?

$200 is for one time only Waseem. There is no package system. You will recieve all the channels but i dont think quality would be GREAT

My friend used it and he is happy with the quality, there used to be 5 different packages on offer but i can't find them anymore for some reason.

ya i didnt find it as well, i have emailed them, lets see

[sehsan]

so anyone else who have a Jadoo tv at home?

[kingusama92]

Jadoo Tv from what I know is basically a collection of internet links that are collected and then transmitted to your "Jadoo" Receiver. From the people I have heard who have it, they say it sucks and it buffers to much. It's just like watching streams on the computer, they buffer at the best of times.

[najam2007]

I have it , and its working fine , I have been using it since last 4 months, it does buffer when you select the live tv link, but if you have a really good speed such as DSL HIGH SPEED it is work as good as gold.

[mamoo gogo]

how else can you watch it...can you record it, and watch it later?

[from_da_lost_dim3nsion]

2 friends of mine have it.they say it works perfect with no buffering.one of them has the HD version which costs 50 bucks more apparently.i am still a bit skeptical about this.is it legal btw?

what channels do you receive? Also, how is the quality?

[infamous9383]

Does anybody know if they are showing the ashes on the jadoo tv??

[J-Essence]

i bought it in February and have watched many cricket tournaments on it. the quality is that of a great stream on the net. geo tv. new, ary. geo super. and some other channels only buffer once when u start it. there are few channels that might buffer in between.

also not every channel is of the same video and audio quality. the pakistani channels mostly have great quality and can be watched without being bothered with quality issue on tv.

it is no where close to HD if thats wht u are used to. it is also lower in quality than satelite tv.

i would recommend it if you like the following?
-if you are into cricket and purchasing streams
-crazy about pakistani news stations, many of those.
-wanting to watch youtube on tv
-love indian dramas

currently the following channels are being streamed
ARY digital
Geo entertainment
Geo news
Geo super
Hum tv
Star plus
N-tv
Sahara one
Zoom (music)
B4U movies
B4U music
Sun TV
MIA live
ARY Q-tv
AAJ (news)
Masala (cooking)
Orange (sports)
Euro sport news
Express news
BBC world news
NASA
Aljazeera (english)
CNN ibn (indian)
SKY news
Waqt
Dawn news (bad quality)
Sportal
NDTV imagine
Times now
Sony sab
Star vijay
etc

[Rizwan25]

how do you connect it to your tv?

[shane]

just found this. May be of some use.

http://www.scribd.com/doc/13178701/Jadoo-User-Manual

[pakistanichamp]

the thing i am using here in saudi is a reciever named dreambox the thing is u just connect the dsl connection to the reciever and all the channels come automatically, reciever costs 800-1000 saudi riyals and u get all showtime, pehla, orbit, super sport channels, ART sport channels and pay an additional 300 riyals after every 6 months to renew

the quality is like original

it comes by many names like spider, v-box and etc.

[pakistanichamp]

the reception of Dream box is exceptional exactly like the original channels
but much cheaper!!!!!!!!!

since it runs by the INTERNET , wouldnt that mean that u could use it anywhere in the world if you have DSL ?

[shane]

The Dreambox is an exceptional receiver - there is an awful lot you can do with it beyond internet television. Many people who buy a dreambox do so in order to hack pay channels and foreign channels.

so would it work anywhere in the world?

[Plasma]

I was about to ask the same question.

Will it work in North America? Especially Canada?

Also, is it only cable? So that means no desi channels?

[shane]

Internet TV should work anywhere. As for receiving free satellite channels which would otherwise cost money, this should also work anywhere in the world. In fact, the dreambox is widely used to receive, and decode, encrypted satellite channels. Of course, the satellites you wish to receive would need to be available in your area, ie if you live in the UK then you cannot receive signals from an Asian satellite.

For example, a satellite named Astra beams SKY tv into the UK. It is possible to use the dreambox (rather than an ordinary Sky box) to watch all those channels for free. It is illegal though and so not recommended - even though Sky does charge far too much money for its services.

Incidentally, a basic dreambox should cost about £60.

[Plasma]

Can it decode the Nag 3 encryption of Dishnetwork?

[shane]

Originally Posted by Plasma Can it decode the Nag 3 encryption of Dishnetwork?

If you want to know more about what is actually a pretty complicated subject you should google "dreambox cardsharing".

The box can connect to another person's box (using your internet connection), enabling you to watch all of his channels, meaning that you can use that person's card as though it were yours. If you connect to enough people you could potentially decrypt EVERY channel, whatever its encryption system. There is something of a community for this on the internet.

I dont actually have a dreambox and use a legitimate sky subscription. And i should point out again that it is illegal in most countries.

[Inswinger]

Got Jadoo and I have been pleased so far. Almost all the desi channels are working and the quality of the cricket broadcast is a bit better than willow.

how much u pay for jadoo box

[Khabri420]

I thought I heard that Jadoo had shutdown?

[insaftak]

Jadoo Tv, the best thing that ever happened for a pakistani cricket fan, ten sports, geo super, i absolutely love it

[Salman]

$230 for the picture quality version, it's not HD quality but reasonable.

Originally Posted by Khabri420 I thought I heard that Jadoo had shutdown?

I have had Jadoo tv since September and it works great, only on one occasion geo channel stopped working, i just logged on to the site and re enabled to the channel in seconds...

It's also has a big library of on demands HQ desi movies, even brand new releases.

[Inswinger]

Originally Posted by jattafridi how much u pay for jadoo box

Paid 200 US dollars. Currently I'm getting almost all Desi channels but I only care about Geo Super and TEN Sports. These 2 are up 24/7. I'd spent over $200 purchasing streams over the past year so this was worth it. The quality is pretty good. Not as good as regular TV like dish or cable but its pretty good.

[critical]

its all about eurovox

[jattafridi]

somebody offering me the HD jadoo for 230 american dollars u think is a good price

[Inswinger]

Originally Posted by jattafridi somebody offering me the HD jadoo for 230 american dollars u think is a good price

Seems to be good. DOn't fall for the HD trap though, HD and SD have the same quality. They've stopped selling the SD box now and sell the HD for $250.

[Salman]

Originally Posted by jattafridi somebody offering me the HD jadoo for 230 american dollars u think is a good price

If it's second hand, make sure you get the myjadoo username and password details as it's linked to the serial number, without the password you can't update your channels.

[Inswinger]

Originally Posted by jattafridi somebody offering me the HD jadoo for 230 american dollars u think is a good price

If it's secondhand then don't buy it. You can buy a brand new one for $250.

[Inswinger]

Salman, could you post which channels your subscribed to? I can't seem to find a working ARY source.

[RumiNYC]

Jadoo tv is average quality, good for if u have extra tv in home..

[jattafridi]

Originally Posted by Inswinger If it's secondhand then don't buy it. You can buy a brand new one for $250.

no its brand new i already register its good free matches for me

[jattafridi]

i have 1 more question while watching a movie can we rewind and forward if yes then how

[Inswinger]

Originally Posted by jattafridi i have 1 more question while watching a movie can we rewind and forward if yes then how

I don't think you can. I tried it once and it started a new movie. I was 2 hours into the film and haven't gone back to that movie yet! You can pause it.

[germanboy]

How did i miss this thread!!!

JADOO TV is not that good avrg qualti and its only good if you have the old tv 4:3.

Its mostly good for your parents for those who cant use a computer so its make life easier that you dont have to search channels and watch it though jadoo tv on TV.

[Salman]

Originally Posted by jattafridi i have 1 more question while watching a movie can we rewind and forward if yes then how

if your watching it on demand then you can't rewind and forward, very annoying when my 1 year old daughter gets hold of the remote control while we are watching something.

But If you connect a memory stick to he back of the box, you can download all the films from Jadoo TV and rewind / forward while watching.

3 Idiots took about 20 minutes to download.

[Salman]

try adding Ary D3719

[iHammad]

My dad just got it. He is setting it up. Any advice?

[iHammad]

It doesn't work :S It says "your broadband internet connection is down"

[iHammad]

Ok some channels are coming now....like Geo Super

How do you get to watch Geo News?

[Salman]

Originally Posted by iHammad Ok some channels are coming now....like Geo Super How do you get to watch Geo News?

logon to myjadoo site and add new channels, my box took 24 hours to activate properly.

Also, put the remote control in a safe place, it's very small and can get misplaced easily, the box is useless without it.

[iHammad]
