NEW DELHI: Though it was one of the first channels to go on to the direct-to-home platforms, Doordarshan has finally ensured that the private DTH operators carry its electronic programming guide.

 

For this purpose, Doordarshan has entered into a deal with NDTV and What’s on India Media.

 

A DD source told indiantelevision.com that NDTV will manage the EPG of all 21 DD channels and deliver it to all multi-system operators and DTH operators of the country.

 

Servicing, aggregating EPGs of all the channels of DD Direct Plus and delivering it to DTH Direct Plus platform in compatible format will be handled by What’s on India.

 

The source said that some of the DTH operators had already commenced the EPG guide while others will commence shortly.
