Astro go got chromecast support now?
They say since April 2017 about this new feature & today still not available yet. If use Screen Mirroring only live channel for now. On Demand got different playback maybe. I suggest you to use Mi Box like that user post. Better picture.

Just test watch HD channel in astro go. 30 minute of watching in HD will eat 800MB data. That a lot. SD channel still in 4:3. Only PC can adjust aspect ratio. For app still cannot.

Oh yea, since astro not offer Disney Channel HD. Some of the cartoon available in Disney On Demand with HD quality with BM dub. Show like Stitch & Ai.

unifi tv with stb is as good as astro with decoder - for HD channels.
both are in 1080i 50hz.

astrogo used to be crap but has improved now, better than unifi playtv.
of course, neither is as good as the stb or decoder streams.

Oh I see. Thanks for the information.

90 days of SP4+ preview, but only today noticed.

Really, astro? ya'll should've told me sooner.

You so lucky

After what happen with previous incident, i would've be so. They didn't bother to notified in advance, so lazy durr.

American Idol will be shown on Sony Channel, which is unfortunately not available on Astro. Only on Unifi TV. http://www.thesundaily.my/news/2018/03/09/...ia-sony-channel

Speaking of which, Astro should have added SONY CHANNEL & GEM long time ago to join AXN, ANIMAX (HD please) and ONE HD lineup.

if not on TV, atleast they should've do that on Go one instead.

Ahh very bad...
Don't know why Sony channels not in astro...
Maybe astro don't want to pay...

It all depends on ur device.
playUnifi is actually as good as Astro Go in terms of streaming quality.
maybe u need to compare some of the devices.

for example, my phone can get until 4k but my tablet (an entry level Lenovo) can only get max 2k.

If before Feb, 2018 then yes but not after because Astro had update the streaming quality where it is like watching Astro broadcast quality now.

If 10 out of how many star for streaming video quality, I will give

• Astro GO - 9 Star
• unifi playTV - 6 Star

Tested both on Mi Box and LG G6.

Maybe they want to focus on Commonwealth Games, Asian Games and World Cup this year. Not cheap. I am watching American Idol clips on youtube only.

Astro Go HD channel really awesome. Like watching youtube. Maybe the bitrate is about 2mbps like that. For SD channel. Really bad & most of it not native 16:9 mode.

Too bad about American Idol huh. Guess astro will never add that channel. Maybe get to cease broadcast first before we get to see on astro. Atleast, now can watch Aniplus & Comedy Central in HD now. Maybe they will add Animax 4:3 soon in astro go like MTV. MTV Asia still trash. Wonder if some provider likely to add MTV Live anytime in future. Ansa probaly(nowhere to be seen).

Still hope to see Fox HD in astro go. Only selected tittle like The Walking Dead is available OD. Want to watch The Simpson & Family Guy not available OD. Iflix family guy show will leave the service this april. Just got to rewatch back S1.

Yeah.. Focus on their target market..
Sports events 😊

Haha astro is not 4 non-sports kakis😄😄😅😅

True..
One main reason people subscribe is because of sports..

PM launches Okey TV channel 109 astro fully funded by the government specially designed for Sabah and Sarawak.

What is that channels? New in-house channel?
I almost see wrong, saw "Oh!K" is designed for Sabah and Sarawak.

Nearly fainted though from Korea program change to Sabah and Sarawak program.

That's RTM channel..
Rebranded from TVi 😑
Previously CH 180, now moved to CH 109...
