It's free installation for some BR1M applicants,I guess. My place here has private installer, charge also the same price to NJOI which is around RM300. Yeah, as long as boradcasted through satellite, bad weather will affect signal transmission.

My budget for the whole setup should be RM400, but it doesnt mean I need to blow it all.

Any recommendations?

For antenna, you have to check the distance of transmission tower to your house, if it's near, indoor antenna will do, or else buy an outdoor antenna. For decoder, you can find from Facebook, many people receice free BR1M decoder and sell it. Original decoder with the price RM50 to RM100, much cheaper than market price.

With Rm400, you should go for original decoder or ask for authorised mytv installer to install MYTV S2 ( satellite dish).

Is MyTV really going to keep transmitting K band satellite? I presume that they are using C band to the East Malaysia transmitters for rain fade reliability, so a couple of K band transponders as well gets expensive.

I hope so too. And best of all, don't make it encrypted.

How do i check the distance between my house and the tower? Do we have a map for the towers?

This satellite dish... Is better than using antenna?
*
Find your nearest tower from here http://www.mytvbroadcasting.my/liputan_siaran/

Check distance with Google map

Satellite dish is actually for those area out of signal coverage or weak signal. It must use original decoder, It works like Astro, quite stable but will be affected by bad weather.

remember how phone makers were bashed for not having FM radio function in smartphones when hurricane struck?
even in my house, i have both windows and linux PC for redundancy.

Yeah that's the downside, cannot 100% rely on internet. But internet coverage and speed is enhanced nowadays and many unlimited internet data are available, so internet IPTV becomes very popular.

Thanks. Found my parents' house is 15km away from the KL tower. I think I will try the indoor antenna first, if that fails, Ill just get something better. Found a whole set for RM117 on lazada. many good reviews for that seller and particular product too.

Good to hear that, share with us the result of installation. However shipment is delayed due to Raya celebration, so probably you will receive it soonest by next week.

Hi, has the Teletext/Red Button/Interactive function for TV1 SD and TV2 SD been taken off?

Or is it only available for the RTM HD channels? Can't seem to access it on TV1 and TV2 SD. Earlier I could receive them on all RTM channels.

Using original official MYTV Myfreeview decoder with LAN cable plugged into the Internet btw.

One common thing about MYTV, in testing phase for years and still in testing. Announcement is made after doing something wrong or in most cases, no announcement.

Went through Lojing today, a lot of the orang asli homes are receiving MYTV via satellite - this area is a VHF/UHF blindspot so no wonder there

Is it free installation or they pay for it?

If I buy ori decoder from BR1M applicants who received free decoders with much cheaper price, RM50 can get already.

Are there any our neighbor countries which provide 4k digital TV broadcast so that I could estimate when should I upgrade my 1080p TV to 4k.

wonder why i only can receive digital tv signal at night from 8pm onwards. i cant search for any channel in daytime. is it my tv problem or something wrong at the broadcaster?
*
My experience before, after upgrade of transmission tower, no more issue with signal reception. I am using 'rabbit ears' old generation of indoor UHF antenna. My previous harwork to change and relocate antenna, reinstall cable, climbing up to rooftop and etc etc was really a joke, but I treat it as experience.

Thanks for the link

QUOTE(joshhd @ Jun 14 2019, 02:51 PM)
So far there is no neighbouring countries transmit digital TV channels in 4K UHD, and that shouldn't be your main reason why you should not upgrade to UHD TV.
When you have UHD TV, you can make sure that your TV can support 4K UHD and be able to watch 4K UHD content in near future.
Example, you can play your own 4K UHD videos from your USB drive by connecting it to a UHD TV, or you can enjoy selected shows in 4K quality if you subscribe to Netflix RM51/month plan.

Just go ahead with 4K UHD TV. There's no bad reason to not go for 4K UHD TV, and 4K UHD TVs is getting affordable nowadays.
*
Good comment. But I think I go for 4K UHD TV few more years later 😉.

QUOTE(truelife @ Jun 18 2019, 12:13 PM)
Don't expect much for FTA channels. Even Singapore is still stuck in 1080i, not yet 1080p.

Malaysia FTA channels, on the other hand, are struggling in SD format mostly.
*
True, that's why I asked about neighboring countries because our country's development is always few steps behind.

Now my old TV (big box type) has this problem where sound becomes very low at 8pm TV2 Mandarin news but for other time, the sound is fine. I tested with other Led TV, the sound is fine. How to solve this problem?

Just a quick question.....

My parent had been watching TV1 and TV2 (Both HD) for a whole day today and they told me there is no subtitle.

Strange thing is....I already enable the subtitle and yet no subtitle is showing up?

Decoder is Openbox V8 Pro....rebranded as GTMedia V8 Pro now.....

Anyone with same issue? Or RTM doesn't broadcast the subtitle correctly?
*
It seems the subtitle option is there but not functioning, same with me.
