Hello, was wondering if anyone face this issue
my condo unit is using an astro mini box, connected to the centralized port inside my unit

this 2 days my astro might suddenly not responsive to the remote, i have tried change battery and all.

I need to off the power at the outlet, wait few minutes turn it back on. and after turning it on, the decoder will still be purple color but no screen appears on TV, instead of being orange color while being off.

then i just let it sits there for few minutes, suddenly the box will be restarted and then got screen back, and then the remote is functioning again.

any idea what happen? cause i got this issue 2 times in 3 days d

you got proof
then just report to Aduan SKMM instead of whining assthrow problems online

I already did one, if you're missed few pages.

Sports Pack RM99.99 + News & Documentaries RM14.99 add-on

For a breakdown:

For Sports Pack you’ll get:
- Ch 805 UHD
- Ch 810–826
- Free access to beIN Sports Connect app

If want Sports Focus (Ch 830–833) add-on RM19.99 on My Astro app.

For News & Documentaries add-on you’ll get:
- Ch 511–518 (plus France24 & DW on Astro GO) for News
- Ch 551–556 for Documentaries
- Free access to BBC Player app

Previously, both segments aren’t unified into single add-on, you add-on separately during legacy packs days (News Pack, Learning Pack).

Ch 311 is now available by default into Primary Pack (which is already included to Sports Pack), no more Chinese Favourites & TVBAnywhere+ app access.

thanks!!! but how to find that add on for news?

Simply go to your My Astro app > Account > your current package > Add-ons

thankyou very2 much!!

what's their reply? curious to know.
Sorry for asking details as I'm not online everyday like some losers. Which has No life outside lowyat

FYI, Ch 110 will cease on Nov 20. Ch 108 will continue to air Astro Originals.

If file a complaint to Astro customer service isn't working, then try file complaint to MCMC instead.

Alternatively, try use the Search function on your box and type one of your recorded programmes titles, see if you can stream it On Demand instead.

Try clear NVRAM to see if issue resolves:

If issue persists, then it's time to contact customer service and replace your Ulti Box to a new one.

This is the result of masak masak way to do biz?
1 year can tapao.

Also, insider info, Ch 107 will follow suit on Dec 3. Ch 105 to continue airing previous & future Warna shows.

Assthrow masak masak way for cost cutting?
Warna contents also very unattractive now.

A quick look at assthrow share price in the past 1 month a drop nearly 10%.

BREAKING: Astro Premier (CH110) to cease on 20 Nov 2024; Astro Warna (CH107) to cease on 3 Dec 2024, without any channel replacement


Source: Astro Media Solutions email newsletter
TLDR:

• Astro Premier (CH110) to cease on 20 Nov 2024, to merge with Astro Citra (CH108)
• Astro Warna (CH107) to cease on 3 Dec 2024, to merge with Astro Prima (CH105)
• According to Astro Media Solutions, the reason behind such channel cessation & merger can consolidate higher viewership ratings to the 2 channels, hence make it more appealing for advertisers to advertise their products on the 2 Astro in-house channels.

And reduce operation cost...

Not forgetting free up some bandwidth too...

Because many complaining about Sucks SD quality for certain channel 😁

What a non-compelling excuse given for cost reduction.

Thriving business will not cut cost but to use its resources to generate more revenue.

Only ppl with tyrannical mindset will always silence others and always in denial stage.

PREMIER reminds me about PRIMEtime, which didn't last long

UPDATE: Effective 15 Jan 2025, you can now link Max account with your Astro subscription.
The info below are now outdated and no longer applicable.

Added on
PSA: Link your HBO GO account with Astro subscription NOW so you can login to Max from 19 Nov 2024

If you want to be able to login to Max through Astro subscription as Max launches on 19 Nov 2024, please read this:

If any of you are able to watch HBO channels on Astro (e.g. Movies Pack customer), but haven't create and/or link the HBO GO account with your Astro subscription, please do it ASAP.
Even if it has been ages since you last login to HBO GO, it's time to login the account and double check.
This is to ensure that you can login to Max app from 19 Nov 2024.
You will be using the same email address and password of your HBO GO account, to login to Max.

I got a reliable insider info which is similar as what previously shared by doubleM2 where for those who did not link their HBO GO account with Astro subscription by 17 Nov 2024, will NOT be able to link their Max account with Astro subscription as it launches on 19 Nov 2024.
This applies regardless if you subscribe to Movies Pack (or any packs that has Movies) before or after 19 Nov 2024.

Tip: If you can watch HBO channels on Astro now (e.g. CH411, 412, 414, 415...), it means your Astro subscription has Movies, hence you are eligible for HBO GO access (soon will become Max).

It has been told that all these is due to technical readiness from Astro's end (means they are technically not ready, due to other priorities), so those "late comers to Max app" will have to wait until around Jan/Feb 2025 to be able to link Max account with Astro subscription. (Note: May subject to date extension).
As an alternative, Astro will advise those "late comers" that they can still stream selected Max content through On Demand or Astro GO instead.
All existing Movies customers will be getting Max Standard plan, but due to the technical readiness mentioned earlier, there will be no upgrade option to Max Premium just yet, AND no option to subscribe Max Standard or Max Premium plans as a standalone app addon, until around Jan/Feb 2025 (Note: May subject to date extension).

Even if you previously linked HBO GO account with your Astro subscription, I strongly suggest you guys to double check to see if the HBO GO account is still remained linked with your Astro subscription before 17 Nov 2024.
This is how it looks like when the HBO GO account is successfully linked with Astro subscription:

Do note that this is only affecting Astro customers.
If you are an Unifi TV customer and subscribed to a pack that includes Max app (e.g. Ultimate Max Pack, Ultimate Plus Pack, etc.), or any other touchpoints, then the above information shouldn't concern you.
Please share this important info to your family and friends who is an Astro customer subscribed to Movies, and is anticipating for Max to launch in Southeast Asia on 19 Nov 2024.
