Well, RTM channels+Bernama TV+TV-Alhijrah in Astro is already in digital, so that means nothing. For Media Prima channels however, they still showing in analogue one. Plus, MP channels PQ still hasn't improved much.

does it means that current astro box can receive digital broadcast?
if so, then no need to buy new dvb tuner right?

what about those new channel in the future that broadcasting in digital.

Yes, according to earlier news reports, digitised FTA channels will be made available on Astro platform. In other words, Astro subscribers can choose not to buy a separate set-top box.

i see. thanks

now for those who don't subscribe astro, what type of antenna can be use?
does the old antenna for analog reception suffice?

I haven't tested. My HDTV doesn't have DVB-T2 tuner.  tongue.gif
RTM and Media Prime channels are already broadcasted digitally in full SD on HyppTV. The PQ is superb.

I thought 16:9.
I kinda wish they make it like Astro 118 channel, native 16:9 in SD.

MyTV has reported that it will charge over MYR12 million (USD3.3 million) for a standard definition channel per year to broadcasters for a 24-hour slot. It will initially offer over 30 channels; it will add 30 channels over the next two year and nearly 80 channels by 2019.

It's for sure that we will complete the switchover by 2020, as agreed by all ASEAN members.
