i was also able to see NBA HD this morning & the highlights this afternoon...
i think a whole year subcription for 300 a month plus the "PACQUIAO-MARGARITO" fight for FREE is all worth it.

2 thumbs up for skycable!!! :)

1 Yr advance payment to get Pacquaio fight free

P299 x 12 months       = P3,588
One time paym for box= P3,000
total cashout               = P6,588

i think the PPV for Pacquaio is about P1K plus. so in effect you only paid P5,588 or P466 a month ( with HD digibox na and free hdmi pa yun ).  pwede na!!

thanks ... isip muna kung kukuha ng extra hd box ...

ESPN HD na ang nakalagay sa channel 172 ... sana walang extra charge ... pero knowing sky malabo yun hehe ...

Seems like Sky is really up against Cignal:

From SkyCable's Twitter Account:
ESPN HD (Ch.172) will be available to all HD subscribers beginning Nov. 1, 2010 up to Oct. 31, 2011 for FREE!

Nice, you now have 100+ channels, why not add Crime and Investigation Channel for 50 pesos, ASN for NFL games worth 150 and Star Chinese Movies for 152 pesos. :D

Are the Crime and Investigation and ASN channels in HD too? I asked the agent and he said the ones I got were their only HD channels. Will call them up tomorrow and ask again. Star Chinese Movies will be useless to me :D

Oh, Crime and Investigation and ASN are not in HD. Although ASN has an HD feed but Sky does not have it.
BTW, I think Sky will add more HD channels to have 10 HD channels all in all.

Confirm ko lang... do all HD boxes have audio output or do some/all of them rely on HDMI output for audio.  Am concerned because my AV receiver cannot decode audio streams.

yung mga nakasubscribe sa pacquiao fight .. ano na nakalagay sa ch. 167? ... naka-block pa din yung sa akin ... kailan kaya may ipapalabas na kahit ano para maconfirm na subscribed na ... sa cignal daw kase may poster ni pacquiao-margarito at minsan may 24/7 teaser daw ...

EDIT: called sky customer service yesterday, dapat daw meron trailer ng sky hd na pinapalabas .. after about 30 minutes ay naayos din ... now waiting mode sa laban ... as of 8:17am today (11/14/2010) ay wala pa yung ppv ni pacquiao ...

I get nothing at channel 167 so I called this morning.  Guess what, they asked me to email them a request for the Pacquiao-Margarito pay per view when all along I thought OK na yung phone request lang. WTF? Why didn't they advise that before? These guys don't have their act together.

Now it's already 8:20 a.m. and all I'm getting is Skycable commercials in an endless loop.  I'm wondering; won't they show the undercard fights?

Same thing here. All i'm is a looping series of HD ads. Called them up earlier and was told the fights would be aired starting 8am but it's already 8:30am and it's still the same loop. Least they should do is indicate how much longer before they start showing the fights.

Anybody out there who already has Skycable feeds of the fight?

i'm getting the same thing ... the looping commercials are shown since the ppv broadcast has not started yet ... i think the undercards will be shown ... whatever will be shown on the ppv in the states, i think we'll get the same ...

can't wait .. hope the ppv broadcast will start already ...

EDIT: i just read on a boxing thread na start na ... next fight ay Jose Benavidez vs Winston Mathis ...

I already have the HD box - may installation fee pa ba yun for the extra NbA premium channel or just the subscription fee?
