Do you all face this problem?
Switch from channel 300 HD to other channel will mute the sound, need to turn on/off the decorder/tv back to normal.
Change the hdmi cable didn't help this issue at all.

Make sure your Digital Audio settings is set to "Stereo".
FYI, Astro/Njoi made Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound available in HD channels only.

thanks , another question

1. Can I get a DMT Astro to use on Njoi or to record programs ?
2. How much to request for Njoi to get a beyond dish since njoi is going for HD program ?
3. And how long would it take for them to come and install after register ?
*
What you mean DMT Astro? Old Astro decoder?
Astro has phased out old Astro decoders, same goes to NJOI. If you take Njoi, they will give you the "so-called" Astro B.yond decoder, but made specially for NJOI!

No chance you can record programmes on Njoi. Unless if you take Astro B.yond PVR.

The only worthwhile channels in NJOI are 300,800,321 and 303. The rest are wasting time only.

How about 301?

When is Astro going to include the myfreeview channels into njoi?
*
That depends on the channel owner, see if they want to offer their channel on Njoi or not. Meaning, channel owner have to pay money to Astro/Njoi for them to provide their channel to their platform.
So it is not up to Njoi to provide the channel to them.

Example, if RTM want Njoi to provide RTM Sports HD channel, then RTM have to pay an amount of money to Njoi. Plus, if it's a HD channel, it'll be even more.

Hi. Njoi cannot subscribed bein channel ?. TQ
*

For the sports channels on Njoi prepaid, you can only subscribe Astro SuperSport 1, 2, 3, 4 and WWE Network. The rest all cannot.

Astro won't allow Njoi prepaid users to freely subscribe whatever channels they wish to watch on the Njoi prepaid platform.
They limit the choices of prepaid channels that can be subscribed, so that customers would consider to opt to subscribe to the regular, monthly subscription Astro service if there's no particular channel that the viewer wants. Like for your case, beIn Sports are not available on Njoi prepaid, and if you contact their customer service, they will advise you to convert from Njoi to the regular subscription of Astro, and that's how they attract you to pay even more money.

This is called, marketing strategy. brows.gif

It'll costs at least RM90+ a month to subscribe to Sports pack, along with the Family pack.
If you wish to subscribe, do contact Astro directly.

You're kidding right? I'm an Njoi user & beIN Sports channels are available to buy since last year. There's even Fox Sports & Eurosports. Sports pack on Njoi are bargain: RM53 per month & add another RM10 for HD channels (for Astro Supersport channels only). huh.gif

Sounds like regular Astro to me... Are you sure you are on Njoi?
If Channel 100 (iNjoi) and/or Channel 302 (iView) channel is available in your channel list, that means you are on Njoi.
If this 2 are not available on your channel list, then you are on Astro.

Could your NJOI decoder get 1080p with Sport Pack HD?
I could only get 1080i.

https://njoi.astro.com.my/technical-issues/...d-settings.aspx
From their website, seems to be that case? Only 1080i seen as max resolution....or not updated?
*

Astro/Njoi HD/PVR boxes outputs only up to 1080i.
TV channel broadcast standards commonly uses 1080i, not 1080p.

Just set it as 1080i and leave it.

Ok, thanks for the replies ... was googling Astro help & FAQ, nothing ... and was reading this article https://www.cnet.com/how-to/1080i-and-1080p...ame-resolution/ but it was written in 2013, I thought standard broadcast might be more than 1080i already.  E.g. SkySport UK already offering 4K (2160p) channels, 1080p should be nothing.  Read somewhere in Lowyat (this thread?), neighbouring Thailand & Indonesia starting 4K broadcast already too.

Anyway, nevermind ... since confirmed all Astro HD channels still only 1080i, then I don't need to wonder what's wrong with mine.  notworthy.gif

Btw, at the decoder Settings -> STB Diagnostics -> Advanced, it listed out 1920x1080p@50Hz, 1920x1080p@60Hz, etc. as Supported TV resolutions (ya, my TV can support 1080p) .... so, maybe the decoders memang can support 1080p already, just that Astro satellite broadcast signal not yet.
*

It's not "not yet" or "still only 1080i", but 1080i is the international broadcast standards for Full HD TV broadcast, while 1080p is not the international standard for linear TV broadcast. 1080p is commonly used for non-TV broadcast ones, like online streaming, Blu-ray movies, etc.

Even if Astro STB allows HDMI output as 1080p, you won't see any visual and obvious difference compared to 1080i also.
HD channels are in 1080i, not 1080p. Actually, for normal TV viewing, there's no need to bother about that 1080i or 1080p also...

Meanwhile, the international broadcast and content standards for 4K UHD will use only Progressive instead of Interlaced due to technical reasons, that's why it is in 2160p, and there is no such thing as "2160i" for 4K UHD content. That's why you see some countries that started 4K UHD trials, they use 2160p. Same goes to 8K in the future, 4320p.

Anyone has experience using NJOI NOW?

I plan to get the Game of Thrones pass for Season 8 premiere on Monday.

Will it be in high definition? 1080p/720p? 4K maybe? haha

No info on your website or FAQ. Technical chat support useless, cannot connect

Edit: Streaming using web browser

It should be available in HD, provided when you stream it using a high speed Internet connection.
No word about 4K from Astro Go, so no 4K UHD.

I'm looking to get NJOI for my parents.

However, the condo that they will be moving to here in KL does not have a functioning central Astro dish. The condo does not permit installation of own Astro dish (and my unit also facing South East so may not be in the direction of the satellite as well).

Is it possible to obtain NJOI through IPTV format instead as I have 500Mbps Time that should be able to support.

The Njoi phone/table app option is not a possible solution as my parents are over 70 years old and quite hard to teach to use a tablet to watch and cast to a tv.

Summary: Is anyone able to help install and provide the Njoi service over IPTV via a standard decoder that is plugged into the TV via HDMI.

Thanks,
*

No.
Njoi is only available via satellite.

You should inform your condo management about the centralise dish system is not functioning well, and tell them to do something about it.
Could you tell us what's the problem of your centralise dish system that is not functioning well? No signal at all when connected? Can get only certain channels? Or what?

If Astro IPTV is the only option they recommend to you, but you prefer Njoi, then I guess you're out of luck.

Thanks for the feedback. Will speak to the condo management and see what can be done. Apparently they have repaired the dishes a few times already but as the tallest structure in the area, the dish gets struck by lightning very often and JMB decided not to keep fixing it as not many residents are Astro subscribers as well

Hmm... Didn't your condo management installs some lightning arrester, or surge protector or something?

Look like install for "Display unit".. shakehead.gif

Install Njoi to enjoy more channels compared to MYTV digital TV channels now.
And also for Astro to increase subscriber base, as well as the Njoi user has the potential of spending money on it for Njoi prepaid channels.
Astro can take this opportunity to use back refurbished set top boxes and even satellite dish for Njoi users, and other equipment so that no wastage and save cost.

It's free stuff. What to argue?
Astro be like "If you not happy, don't watch Njoi. Simple."
Njoi users don't have monthly charges, so there's no complain about what channels they SHOULD offer.

Astro prioritises on paying customers than free customer is a very common practice for them. No need to feel surprised. You'll get used to it. Don't rely too much on Astro for TV entertainment.
