Does not work  using this antenna on my set-up. Digital tuning turns out 0 services with Sony kx800g built in tuner. Try few locations for antenna as permitted by length of wires still does not work. Area Subang Bestari, any pointers?

either your place is in lowland, further away from transmission tower, malfunction cable.


you need a rooftop UHF antenna with rg6 cable [astro cable]. icon_idea.gif

Landed house, and Subang bestari lowland too. Don't know how to check on cable fault. I think I put everything tight enough.

Most probably need to get the ugly antenna?

still can test with your analog tv tuning until 19 august. go troubleshoot first, before buying any new antenna, if your old analog still can receive then something wrong somewhere. icon_idea.gif

Actually , I don't concern much about menu or manual.
The important part is whether will MYTV block build in DVB-T2 signal and force every user to buy their tvbox.

As for example , : change channel frequency where most build in DVB-T2 doesn't have and only the MYTV tvbox have .

Second , you haven't reply on how apply on BSH free mytvbox.

if previously you are a BR1M recipient, you are auto selected randomly to receive the FREE decoder. since the the introduction of BSH, not all ex-BR1M selected will get the FREE decoder. most of the selected have been filter again due to not eligible. my dad have been waiting for more than 2 years before he gets his free decoder.

you should ask yourself, whether you want PVR and can play movie from usb pendrive or not. official decoder cannot do that. PVR and play movie from usb is disable. icon_idea.gif

while watching 8tv just now I just realised they going to cancel the analog and move to fully digital... I have absolutely no idea the easiest way to convert without need to spend a few hundred ringgit just to watch that few local channel. I usually just left the tv running (watching news, etc) not serious chasing any movies. So don't ask me go subscribe astro...

I check my Sony TV, which is bought around 2012-2013... cant find any label with "DTTV Malaysia".  It is a so called "internet-tv" by that time. I checked it has digital autotune... running through it , result in 0 channel.

Do I just need to buy the UHF aerial antenna, or must I buy the decoder as well? If I need to buy the few hundred decorder, i might as well buy a android tv box?

8tv is on UHF frequency, since you are able to watch it means you already have UHF antenna install on your rooftop. if you still cannot tune to digital TV means either you tv is not equip with the right decoder version or don't have one inside your tv.

you need to purchase one new dvb-t2 decoder if you intend to watch tv in the future.

Anyone here has the answers on the analogue switch off for Central and Southern Region on 19 Aug for the questions below:

1) What is the exact time is the analogue switch off? Is it all analogue channels will cease simultaneously, or in a particular order?
1) whole Langkawi [21 July 2019]
2) Central and South region [19 August 2019]
3) whole Malaysia [ 30 September 2019]

2) Which are the analogue TV transmitters are confirmed to be shut down? Does it include these particular 3 transmitters, which are:
Gunung Ulu Kali, Bukit Sungai Besi and KL tower

3) Why only the VHF version of TV3 (224.25MHz) has TV squeeze back of showing analogue switch off message, while the UHF version (535.25MHz) doesn't have any message on analogue switch off?
UHF transmitting in central region, more people is aware of the transition, mean while other region is still on VHF.

Does that mean Bukit Sungai Besi will be switch off first, while Gunung Ulu Kali would be switch off at a later date?

*All questions above applies to analogue TV reception within Puchong area.

Anyway, TV3 and TV9 has gone off air on analogue now. I'm not sure is this the official analogue switch off, or just their usual daily off air time, as I'm confused on TV2 Facebook post of the ASO postponement to 20 Aug for Central and Southern Region.

Earlier on 12.30am, Gunung Ulu Kali version of TV3 analogue (535Mhz) shows test card for about 2-3 mins, then it go off air (no signal)

On the same 12.30am as Gunung Ulu Kali version of TV3 shows test card with test card tone, the Bukit Sungai Besi version of TV3 analogue (224MHz) shows colour bar with test card tone. See the difference? One is test card, another is colour bar. Hmm, different analogue feed?

As TV3 Gunung Kali one goes off air as I mention earlier, TV3 Bukit Sungai Besi one is still showing colour bar with test tone. Few minutes later, TV3 analogue on Bukit Sungai Besi goes off air (no signal). Same goes to TV9 analogue.

Do note that during this time, TV3 and TV9 on digital TV is still showing programmes as usual.
*
tv3 always go off around after the english new. happen when i haven't got my digital decoder yet. always catch Saturday English movie and got cut-off midway. meanwhile tv9 always shutdown at 12 mid-nite.

What happen to MYTV EPG?

Already more than 2 days it has gone missing.

MYTV should put the EPG back immediately for all Digital Terrestrial TV and Digital Terrestrial Radio channels and must not go missing in future no matter what the situation of the day is.

you need EPG to do PVR? brows.gif

If it is for PVR, then you got to record it manually, or schedule a specific date, start recording and stop recording time.

Or, it could just he want to see what's the current and upcoming programme names, and description.

manual PVR still ok.


schedule a specific date, start recording and stop recording time. <- this all is not functioning. i try before, failed!! blush.gif

What digital TV STB are you using? If there's a new firmware update, go update it.

Recording function appears to be disabled for the official MYTV box, so got to use third part digital TV STBs to perform recordings...

yeah, i know the official box can't do PVR and movie playback. only wifi is not disable, can connect but dunno what function it does.

my not official box can do PVR and playback. currently, no EPG, so cannot set it to auto record. i only record cjwowshop product that i'm interested to repeat seeing. tongue.gif that's when they have yet to upload to youtube and facebook. now no more doing recording. rclxm9.gif
