[Deep Patel]

In videocon d2h...we all see some spellings come at regular interval of time like "DHMGLJKRQJ" in black color...but from today it Comes with rectangle YELLOW BOX with written this words. So it became really irritating from today as Yellow box creates problem while watching TV and we cant see TV scene behind it..
Anybody facing this issue now? i've also complained d2h of this issue in FB...lets see what happens...But one thing is clear that d2h going BAD day by day and already started loosing customers

not only d2h, all dths and MSOs have used the fingerprinting. Sometimes even the broadcasters use "fingerprints" that would be visible on the platform that you use.

Check in other channels for the same. if its same then its from DTH only else there r fingerprints from differant channels too barring VC Numbers.

Wow, I learned something new here. I never knew what those mysteriously appearing sequence of letters and numbers were
and never even bothered to look up.
Thank you, Technoglitch. Fingerprints, how cool.

This alphanumeric characters known as " fingerprint " are used to curb piracy and illegal connections.

When same code appears on various channels, then it's the " fingerprints " from DTH operator or MSO else if the particular fingerprint court appears only on one channel it's from particular channel.

What is learnt from various sources is , these fingerprints are uniquely send to each viewer or STB and recalled back to check the piracy or illegal viewing of channel .
