natgeo people, bbc earth - those are OK.

fox movie, fox action, paramount - they dun look 720 to me.
chinese movies - very poor.
worse if u use the app on capable devices.
compared to other same channel online streams, they are v poor.
the only explanation is they need to drive cost down, pay less for lower quality.
something i am not hopeful will change.

Do you refer to the STB or the app?

STB. App worse.

and i mean the MOVIE channels, esp chinese ones.

not NAtGeo or BBC lifestyle, Travel and the like which are HD.

as a comparison, Astrogo (app) HD quality is quite good - check AFC, food network, celestial.

If add on again RM15 for netflix (by unifiTV), then consider expensive already.
Since some of the channels have been ceased, then we pay the RM30 for unifi tv pack should include netflix one.

of course we want it free....! biggrin.gif

but netflix will not give free... unifiTV will have to pay.

but seriously... if u have watched netflix in HD or 4k, SD will be rather useless...

This netflix on hyppbox thingy came up becos some reported new box appear to have provision for it.

Really, i dun see how that can happen... it will cost too much... new box for all, licensing... how to recover the spending?

Charge more when so many want to opt out?!

Unifitv is better off selecting and spending on better channel packages, and improving the hd quality of the movie channels.

Esp the chinese ones. The current ones are old stuff, low quality, SD. There r much better HD ones... available in hk and tw.

Ah I see.. Well, I agree with you.. Cost-wise, they simply won't spring for it and why should they? They didn't do it when monthly sub prices were much higher. Don't see why they'd do it now.. Even though they can afford it.

Yeah.. Spoke too soon.. biggrin.gif.. Nowadays most mobile phones easily minimum 1080p screen. 540p would still look worse off. Though, I can see the appeal for those with lower end devices and or budgets.. But still want to enjoy Netflix.. Not minding the lower resolution. Can save more on monthly sub pricing.

likely keep cutting costs... or try very hard to charge more in the coming months.

The HD channels look ok to me... 720p or 1080i. The only ones with issues are all the Chinese HD channels. They have dropped to SD/576i quality for ages. Have mentioned this long ago in the other thread and have complained to TM too but nothing changed. I wonder what tier of Netflix are they going to give. Also that STB is so laggy for everything else such as Iflix so I don't know how the Netflix experience will be like. Hope they make it possible to login on TV app other than STB if they do give free access. They probably have problems getting Netflix on the STB as it took them this long from the agreement they made with Netflix way back in 2017.
It's already shown in my Unifi TV account under purchased packages section for some time already but can't be accessed yet. I'm on Ultimate pack.

My router can show bandwidth usage of current channel. Many channels eg Fox / Korean use 9 Mbps. Free channels like TV3 only 2-3 Mbps. Normally 9 Mbps is 1080p.

why is it wrong to sell unused hypptv?


by the way, what is the best mod for ec6108v8 model? i have my smart tv to cater for most needs. even the dumbest tv today can play h264 videos via USB without problem, rendering the hypptv useless.
