MYTV not capable to handle a small and simple project.

I am not blaming, their internal coordination (among MYTV, MCMC, etc) to speed up the process is necessary. Their promise to public in early 2015 failed. The way MYTV handling project is a good example of absolute fail ! The Indonesia DVB-T2 is up in operation so as Thailand. What Malaysia is going to wait ? Waiting until sun raising from West ?

MYTV only active in changing their official Facebook cover pictures frequently but not updated their progress promptly, how MYTV could urge public to trust them in running the project ? The Gunung Jerai is ON early in January and OFF again after a few days trial of the broadcast until today, they (MYTV) keep people in the north without any progress info available.

Tx Gunung Jerai @ 666 MHz ..... very very weak, not even to download channel info. Scan bar stop at 666 MHz around 5~6 sec. and no channel is downloaded. Nature of i-Mobile phone with DVB-T2 when it comes to detect the signal presence, stops a while to download channel info / properties. If the signal is strong, process of downloading channels info is faster.

I am even stand outdoor for Rx. I think technical guys at Gunung Jerai Tx room have to play with (turn up) the Tx power knob ! Tried since 4 pm just now, nothing but signal is presence.

May I know which part of penang and what brand of stb you use?

Hopefully you will share your reception screen shot. I am in the middle of pain scanning the signal till now and get nothing.

Transmitter tower located at Gunung Jerai, about Gurun area. I still remember during 2 January trial broadcast, someone as far as Kangar could received the signal using outdoor antenna and someone from penang said couldn't get the signal. However, this time seems opposite.

Anyway, happy DXing.

My advice is you have to experienced it yourself, DVB-T2 is in digital form. Either you got it (1) or nothing (0). Make it simple, if your area coverage is below average, you may experienced same situation like Astro during rainny days, a screen full of mosaic.

Reason: MYTV kerja sambil lewa, contract awarded to uncompetitive organisation

May I know the distance your receiving location to the transmitting tower ?

Thank you for reply

What ? The launch date changed to 2018 ? I hope my ear have no listening problem hearing this....

When it says 2018, most probably earliest is 2022 in real. Put in mind that the promised schedule time is always DELAYED !

If this is the way THEY expand the infrastructure, I am more willing to switch back to analogue tv, we are far behind (sudah ketinggalan zaman) Thailand where they have around 30 channels made free to air via their DVB-T2 platform ! Upon official launch MYTV, others has made ready to go for DVB-T3 !

HEVC [High Efficiency Video Coding] is an extension of the concepts in H.264/MPEG-4 AVC for supporting up to 8k Ultra HDTV. To be said part of DVB-T2.

It's too far to go up to that level for MYTV. Even standard HD of 16:9, RTM, TV3, NTV 7, 8TV, TV9 still find no way to upgrade to. A bit curious whether in financial trouble to purchase HD broadcast equipment ? They should wisely utilised this trial periods to broadcast HD and solving any technical problem(s) encountered. That's the reason and definition of TRIAL at least !

Now, these channels are stretched if viewing format set to 16:9 (except TVAH channel, default audio channel still silent. Viewers have to select second option for sound channel). I bet these broadcasters (except TVAH) will definitely continue with SD 4:3 format even after official launch. I didn't see any progress pertaining to picture quality so far.

If MYTV can progress according to schedule promised, the SUN will rise from WEST

Is there any LED TV come with DVB-T2 less than 32" ? I mean branded one. I know that Sony do not have. Most of branded found in SE Asia are minimum 32" which is too big for me. My dining room is small, 32" is too much.
