Which part of MYTV you think that they ever do it very seriously?
In terms of their quality of service, it's terrible. I've already mentioned on my previous posts.

But for those who live in kampung and/or solely depend on DTT to watch TV, where all these years, the ppl there thinks that digital quality channels are a luxury and premium stuff and need to pay monthly subscription like Astro, but in reality, it is the country (during BN era) that progress so slowly and now they can enjoy it with no monthly subscription, you have no idea how thankful they are to see how clear is digital quality channels, till they forget that there are many complaints out there on not able to receive some or all channels, yet most of the viewers get advised to realign their antennas and equipment and stuff, customer service are not reliable, no public apologies being made for any sudden signal loss issues, and kept quiet as if nothing happen, pretty much like Najib la seriously.

The answer is:
Puncak Semangat Sdn Bhd — controlled by billionaire businessman Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Albukhary.

How come financial issues? Because they eventually sees that this DTT project, is like a money losing business to them.

I would advise you to get an indoor UHF antenna and get it done, instead of waiting the condo management to upgrade its MATV system that can supports digital TV DVB-T2, which likely that it'll not happen, unless they put a notice that they plan to do so, with an estimated timeframe.

Are you using RG-6 coaxial cabling from your rooftop antenna to your TV?
At least you can still get Mux 1 but can't get Mux 2, what you can do is pretty much to invest longer UHF antennas (more elements ones, like 21-E or 37-E), or install a masthead amplifier (although it is not so recommended at some point).
Or else, if the DTT reception is still that bad, get yourself the DTH version of MYTV.

And, you're from Sarawak? I suggest you to install 6 feet satellite dish and watch TV channels from C band satellites instead.
Malaysian FTA TV channels is boring lah. But if you enjoy watching it, then it's your choice la.

Which part of northern Malaysia? Penang or Kelantan?
Is the Thai DTT frequencies the same across Langkawi all the way to Kelantan? Or receiving Thai DTT channels in Penang and Kelatan, both has different frequencies?

Is it easy to receive Thai DTT channels? How's the signal reception?

Can you list out what are the frequencies they use, and each mux has what channels.
Thanks a lot.

I hope to see the government would reopen tender again for the DTT infrastructure and stuff.
Just kick MYTV Broadcasting to the grave.

Thanks for the photo.

So this range of Thai DTT frequencies are the same, all the way from Penang to Kelantan, right?

Gobind announce that full analogue shutdown will be done on Sept this year.
From what I see, MYTV don't care also.

Really?
I would rather they switch off all analogue TV signals at border areas first, especially in Johor Bahru area, free up some frequencies and use the empty frequencies for Malaysia's digital TV, instead of overlapping with Indonesia's.

Why? Because majority people in Johor Bahru, they would rather watch Singapore channels rather than Malaysia's. And the people there can receive Singapore DTT channels much easier than Malaysia's, or in some cases, can't even receive Malaysia DTT channels and can only receive Singapore channels in Johor Bahru.

What a shame.

That's when you realise other country's FTA TV channels is better than our own country, you won't bother much on the FTA TV channels from your own country anymore.

What you mean? Something wrong with your antenna is it?

Deputy minister says 1.6 million MYTV decoders distributed

https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/201...ributed/1748463

What makes you think all 1.6 millions are even watching?
I bet majority of them keep their MYTV box in the store room.

It seems that some participants who eligible for free MYTV STB under BSH, they received this notice letter just like that without given directly to the owner.

MYTV be like, "Instead of we give you the MYTV box straightaway, and we need to entertain you by explain this and that, better just put this letter into your letterbox and wait till you call me to install it for you."

So basically is:

Before 1 May:
570MHz: Channel NewsAsia (HD), Channel U (SD), okto (HD)
586MHz: Channel U (HD)

From 1 May 2019:
570MHz: Channel NewsAsia (HD), Channel U (HD), okto (Ceased, showing closure info in SD)
586MHz: Channel U (HD - Now simulcast on 570MHz, and Channel U on this frequency will cease soon)

Am I correct?

What happened?

Thank you for sharing this man. I can see that the post offices employees felt so frustrated on too many "unclaimed parcel".

DAMN, these words are so much burn

You want 10 MYTV boxes for what? Resell ah?
It is clearly stated on the box that it is "Not for Sale".

Buyers should check properly on what frequencies that the particular device may emit before buying. If the digital TV box used is not certified ones, although it is cheaper, but it does carry the possibility of interfering other, telecommunication equipment or signals that is irrelevant from the equipment.
But then yes, I do think that most of the time the uncertified devices won't interfere other nearby devices, but that doesn't mean confirm 100% will not, especially cheap, cap ayam, poor quality, clone/counterfeit product.

That is the risk that you should aware and acknowledge, when you buy devices that are not certified by MCMC (devices that does not have MCMC sticker on it).

All MYTV boxes (except the very beginning MYTV test boxes, white colour ones) does support Irdeto encryption, which requires smart card to decrypt the encrypted channels.

Meaning, MYTV can encrypt digital TV channels, forcing viewers to use only MYTV boxes to watch the channels. IDTV (intergrated digital TV) sets, or TV with built-in DVB-T2, will not able to watch those encrypted channels and forced to use only STB from MYTV to watch the encrypted channels. Pretty much like Astro/Njoi la...

Retail price for MYTV box is RM187 on Shopee, and yes, it is almost RM200 like you said. That box can support/decrypt encrypted channels.
