Can this be shipped and used in Japan 100 Volt?
thanks

The PC version, how is your network bandwidth? The only reason I would pay is to get high quality picture and uninterrupted feed. Do you have a sample URL of a live broadcast to test?

Hi Ali, you can test the quality of our online service on Talfazat.com, but this will only show you the quality of our website stream.
For the box, we require a minimum of 1 Mb download speed. with that, you will definitely get an amazing video quality.

Yes....the box will work anywhere in the world as long as you have highspeed internet.
Please visit our website if you want to ship a Talfazat TV box.

I have a data cap on my internet connection (20GB per month). My speeds are fast though (7 Mbps download, 1 Mbps upload). I'd like to get an idea of how much bandwidth I'll be looking at on average, even if it's per day. Let's say with 4 hours of TV a day. Also, when you say amazing quality, how good is it in terms of resolution? I'm running a 46" 1080p panel, I'll be using my media center PC to get the stream, so I'd like to get an idea of how good is "amazing quality"? Thanks

Thanks for your question Hussein. watching on the Talfazat TV box, we stream at 800 Kbps. So, on average you consume 1 GB every 3.5 hours.

As for watching the Arabic channels on Talfazat.com, the speed varies on the quality selected from the player. If the low quality is selected, the streaming bitrate will be 100 Kbps, for medium quality around 400Kbps and when you select high quality, the bitrate is around 900.

salam
when, I choose Best quality; I get bitrate
mbc, aljazeera and Dubai --> 950 kbps
others, max --> 450 kbps
If I get the TV box will this increase?

Also, you said;
"Simply use the Program Guide to go back 24 hours and watch any program you might have missed and start watching immediately."
Is this for all channels in the package or just some of them.

thanks for your help.
