Is this the standard behavior of the new update ? Start with homepage instead of channel ? Is there a way to change this ? Thanks.

Ass has almost all major content providers exclusive rights, whats left for others remains the question,see how unifi struggles for content.They claim to be working but its all so quiet,anybody in Puchong saw ABN station?Pls update!

Agreed. Like Alphaville said, hope for the best but expect the worst.
I think possibly not. It's already said that ABN partner with TNB and using TNB pole to carry their own fiber cable and fiber box instead of shared fiber box with TM.

But then, TM may be more lenient towards sharing their channels, so maybe ABN will have channels that TM has.
