there is no box that will replace astro. it does not work like that.

for older people, it is even more difficult unless they are used to pc's, mouse, copy and paste, downloads, usb drives, etc.

i suggest u visit a friend, colleague or neighbor who has an androidbox working.

see for yrself if you can handle it, if yr parents can handle it.

.. it is a diff kind of device compared to astro decoder or dvd player.
.. needs time and effort to make it work.
.. needs constant upgrades and changes.
.. does not have much reliable canto stuff unless u go illegal.

upgrade to unifi .. they will give u stb android box and can be use for kodi (im using it now).

What AVFAN says.. ... Also, you should consider upgrading to 10Mbps or the newer 30Mbps package. You'll need it to stream most content.

For English premier league, I normally use Phoenix kodi addon and it is in HD.

You may buy HiMedia from him. Today I start using it.

TM called to give promotion to upgrade to Unifi 5mbps. Will they give me the new stb android box with google play store pre-installed? Or maybe they want to clear old stock and give me old model How many mbps is your connection if you don't mind me asking?

Will 5mbps work? Must make sure can stream before terminating Astro or my parents will kill me!

Standard answer when asking for new equipment while still under contract would be . Most who got newer equipment had to terminate (return old equipment) and apply as a new installation. I'm on VIP10 and still trying to negotiate with TM for newer equipment. Should negotiation fail, since there are a few months left under contract, I might have to wait it out.

I believe TM has scrapped the VIP5 & VIP10 plans in favor of their new plans. IMO, while 5Mbps "might" do the job, there are some sources and content that will struggle to play smoothly and without buffering. Especially when there are multiple internet users at the same time. Since, you plan on terminating Astro, the extra RM32 per month difference between Unifi VIP5 (RM157.94) & Advance 30Mbps (RM189.74) plans should be negligible. Wanna risk being tossed out the window by your parents, while waiting for content to buffer?

LOL!!

TM said they have special promo for Unifi 5mbps. I'm still using streamyx so they said will give me new modem, dect phone, tv box, wiring blah blah blah. Maybe I will try the 5mbps first before terminating Astro and if streaming not okay, then only consider 30mbps.

im using 5mbps and no problem .. except playing 1080 movies .. need to wait for buffering .. other's all ok ..
for stb .. u just need to make report for stb replacement (if still under warranty) if not .. cant change. all new unifi package TM currently provide with new android box .. this is what i told ..

Same here.. MoviesHD is not working.. Wondering whether is it the creator has removed it or my setting problem.. Is there anyone managed to use MoviesHD?

Ah... I guess migrating from Streamyx to Unifi does warrant different equipment. Sounds like you have it all sorted out then.

good question.

i lost it too. the last time i accessed it, a message popped up saying something like only certain users will allowed to use for the time being while a new app is being developed for all. until now, nothing.

i also read somewhere that for now, movieHD is sensitive the chipset type/model and mac numbers.

it is possible they are now filtering such that only certain devices can play.

but never mind... there is still popcorntime and showbox, besides all that stuff in kodi.

best app to watch korean and taiwan is which source?

Mine movieHD too can't access already. So the apps should delete or just keep it?

can remove.

can reinstall later if good news come.

Noted. Thanks bro

Just receive Azdrama prompt update. It's work back.

Hey all.. As regards MoviesHD addon no longer functioning. Download the New Movies HD APK. From my brief test/usage... it appears most of the content playback options are mostly 480p or 720p, and with some listings at 1080p. Audio so far is 2.0 AAC. Tested about 15 links, movies and TV shows and they all played pretty smoothly and almost instantly. So that seems to rule torrents out. Oh yeah, it has its own internal player but also allows external players like KODI, etc (Good...Helps to source subtitles as subs aren't included in the apk yet), direct content downloads are also allowed.

I can neither confirm nor deny any details of this app's operation without the secretary’s.... oops... Movies HD team's approval.

i new to KODI, it is all "free to watch" ??

wanna know is this steps in this link good to use? or better to install one by one?
