But, in fact, turning your TV from a “zombie box” into a real home entertainment center is not so difficult. Today we will talk about how you can carry out this upgrade using the Viasat Premium HD TV channel package.
Video review
Viasat Premium HD is a package digital TV channels, which means that in order to watch them, you need to have cable or satellite television. The package is available in the largest networks Russian operators, which are in almost every home: Rostelecom (and OnLime), Dom.ru, Beeline TV, MTS TV, as well as NTV-PLUS ( full list available on the website viasatpremium.ru).
Viasat Premium HD package – paid, standard subscription fee per month 399 rubles, however, cable providers often have promotions, so you can save a lot of money. We will tell you more about this at the end of the review, and now about the channels themselves.
We can say with absolute certainty: this has never happened on your TV before. There are seven channels in the package, although at the time the package was launched there were three at the end of 2012, then five, and last fall two more were added. By the way, despite this, the price of the package did not rise.
One of important advantages – complete absence advertising, i.e. you won't have to deal with situations where you really interesting moment The airing of the film is interrupted for a commercial break. And watching a movie takes as long as it lasts, without an extra hour of advertising and announcements, as often happens... All channels are in the format high definition(Full HD), and movies - also with surround sound 5.1.
A joy for film buffs
The Viasat Premium HD package includes three 24-hour movie channels, and you won’t find so many new Hollywood “A” movies anywhere else. This became possible thanks to Viasat’s contracts with 4 of the 6 largest Hollywood studios (the so-called majors):- CenturyFox
- Universal
- SonyPictures
- Warner Bros.
What does this give, you ask? The answer is obvious: all the latest world cinema automatically appears on Viasat Premium HD channels, and on your TV. Moreover, if usually at least a year or two passes from the screening of a film in cinemas to its appearance on TV, then on Viasat Premium HD channels the premiere of a Hollywood film will be already 3-6 months after its release, and for new Russian films the count is not even months , but for weeks. By the way, the premieres on Viasat Premium HD movie channels are exclusive, so apart from them, you won’t see these new films on any other channels for at least six months. So, there are three movie channels in the package:
- TV1000 Megahit HD
- TV1000 Premium HD
- TV1000 Comedy HD
TV1000 Megahit HD
In a nutshell, this is a blockbuster channel. Large-scale filming, big budgets and maximum box office receipts in cinemas, that’s all. Full HD format and 1080p standard allow you to fully appreciate all the special effects no worse than in a movie theater. The channel’s program includes the most spectacular cinema, including the most popular “film franchises”, i.e. the most successful films for which a sequel was made: the series “Harry Potter”, “Bourne”, “Twilight”, “Spider-Man”, “Sherlock Holmes”, “The Hangover”, “Ocean’s Friends”, etc.
TV1000 PremiumHD
If a film is valuable not for its special effects, but for its acting, direction or script, its place is on TV1000 PremiumHD. The channel's program includes Oscar, Golden Globe and other prestigious awards winners and cult films. Quality cinema suitable for family viewing, as well as new full-length cartoons - all this is the repertoire of TV1000 Premium HD.
TV1000 Comedy HD
The name of the channel speaks for itself. TV1000 Comedy HD gives you the opportunity to truly relax and plunge from the bustle of the city into the world of the best modern comedies.
Educational channels Viasat Nature HD and Viasat History HD
Educational documentaries from popular cable channels Viasat History and Viasat Nature are presented in the package in HD format. Viasat Nature HD and Viasat History HD are selected new programs about nature and history, respectively. These two channels broadcast for 12 hours on one button, the first of them starts broadcasting at 9 am, and the second picks up the broadcast at 9 pm.
The Viasat Nature HD and Viasat History HD TV channels are perfect not only for adult viewers, but also for the younger generation. This is where you can learn a lot of interesting things about wildlife and its inhabitants, this is a great opportunity to learn something new, something that can hardly be seen on regular TV channels. Especially in high definition format.
Sports channels
For sports fans, the package includes two TV channels:- Viasat Sport HD
- Viasat Golf HD (on English language)
Viasat Sport HD
Viasat Sport HD is the HD version of the Viasat Sport channel, which is well known to all basketball fans, because it is the only channel that shows games of the world's best basketball league - the NBA. In addition to the NBA, the channel broadcasts other exciting sports events: baseball, American football, boxing matches, auto racing - IndyCar (American Formula 1) and drag racing, and for fans of extreme sports - full coverage of the X-Games world series. Sports are a wonderful spectacle in any case, and especially in HD quality.
Viasat Golf HD
The Viasat Golf HD TV channel was likely included in the Viasat Premium HD package for a few golfers. The channel is entirely in English, which is why we can consider this TV channel as a bonus.
Check connection
The package was tested within the framework digital television Dom.ru. During 2 weeks of testing, Viasat Premium HD showed excellent performance, the broadcast went on without any freezes or scattering of the picture. There were no disconnections during the use of this package. There were some slowdowns on other channels provided by Dom.ru, but Viasat Premium HD at this moment, oddly enough, showed its good side.More than just TV channels
If from other, even paid, channels we are not accustomed to expect any additional bonuses, then in the case of Viasat Premium HD there are two of them:- Bonus #1 - Viaplay
The Viaplay library includes more than 2,000 films, documentaries and TV series that can be watched via PC, smartphone or tablet (iOS and Android). You can watch the latest in world cinema and other interesting TV shows at online mode(of course also without advertising). Agree, it’s a worthy bonus for which you don’t have to pay. By the way, you can not only watch movies via Viaplay online, but also download them from mobile device to view where wireless Internet not available.
- Select from the list your operator that provides you with television services
- Enter your details
Bonus #2 - free SMS reminders
The official website of the package - viasatpremium.ru can be used to advantage: the TV program of channels contains absolutely free option– settings for SMS notifications about the start of movies or other programs that you don’t want to miss.
This is not a “subscription to the newsletter” - you yourself choose a specific film session and the time interval before it starts when you receive an SMS. Registration on the site is required (you can easily log in via VKontakte or Facebook), as well as confirmation of the phone number, apparently, this was done so that all sorts of pranksters could not send a stream of unwanted SMS to someone else’s number. And that’s it: select a film from the schedule, choose one of its five nearest showings, choose how long before the start the SMS should arrive. An unexpectedly convenient thing, and also free! By the way, apart from personally configured messages, no spam was received. More details in the video review.
Website viasatpremium.ru
Overall, this is probably the most useful TV channel website we've ever seen. Besides general information about the package, announcements and news, operator promotions, there is a convenient TV program with quite detailed description running films, the already described SMS reminder system, as well as a section with quizzes and competitions where you can win good prizes. In addition, Viasat leads quite interesting groups about cinema on social networks VKontakte and Facebook.
How to connect a package
As we have already said, Viasat Premium HD can be connected to the networks of the largest federal cable operators: Rostelecom (and OnLime), Dom.ru, Beeline TV, MTS TV, as well as in a number of cities - from local providers Lada-Media (Togliatti) , “Telemir” (Lipetsk), “Telenet” (Samara), “Cabinet” (Ekaterinburg). There is also a package satellite operator NTV-PLUS.
The package website contains instructions on how to connect the package yourself - via Personal Area operator or directly through the set-top box menu. You can also call the call center of any of the listed operators (phone numbers are also listed on the website), and their specialists will help you do this. If you are already a subscriber to their digital TV, then the package is connected instantly, and if not, you will first be connected to their network (it may take a couple of days from the application to the arrival of the specialist).
By the way, for the lucky owners of TVs with the SmartTV function, Viasat Premium HD channels can be watched without connecting to digital TV through the NemoTV applications ( Samsung Smart TV) and Okko (Samsung and LG).
Connection by promotions
We have already said that with almost every provider you can find pleasant bonus programs via Viasat Premium HD connection. For example, in our case, we used digital television from the Dom.ru company, and when connecting, this provider provided us with the opportunity to use the Viasat Premium HD package for only 1 ruble, for a period of 3 months. After given period The subscription fee will be 399 rubles per month. And NTV-PLUS subscribers generally watch the package without additional fee. Some operators also offer discounts on long-term subscriptions or reduce the price when simultaneous connection Viasat Premium HD and other packages. In general, if you look, you can save a lot of money.
Results
So, let's summarize the Viasat Premium HD channel package. This is truly something new in the world of television. HD channels are increasingly becoming a reality ordinary users, and this is not strange, because the price for such solutions is not so high. Considering that going to cinemas today is not a cheap pleasure, it is even profitable to purchase a Viasat Premium HD package with new movies for 399 rubles per month. Of course, it should be taken into account that this service(if you don't have a SmartTV) will not work without a digital TV connection. However, if you already have a cable connection or a satellite dish, then adding 7 channels from Viasat to them is definitely worth it. A solid “A” for the content, especially in terms of films – there are so many premieres on no other TV channel. There are no advertisements, and this is great: you watch films calmly - from beginning to end. There are also no complaints about the picture quality, and pleasant bonuses in the form of Viaplay and features like SMS reminders make it even more attractive. If you have a Full HD TV at home and you still continue to watch channels in standard definition– just try to watch some new blockbuster on TV1000 Megahit HD, and you will understand how big the difference is in picture quality.
