QUOTE(pokemon @ Dec 19 2023, 07:33 PM) Disney+Hotstar can add more profiles now. So the disney+hotstar at ultrabox is upgraded too? https://soyacincau.com/2023/12/19/disney-ho...ustom-profiles/The PIN cannot be separated from each profile. Must only use one PIN that fits all.

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 20 2023, 02:20 AM) Web interface? You're suggesting that the Disney+ Hotstar App on Ulti/Ultra Box is actually web-based? Instead of native app? I tried it using my relative's Ultra Box, I can also confirm it's a web-based app, considering it's quite lagging when navigating it.

QUOTE(Iptvfan @ Dec 20 2023, 10:16 AM) I couldn't tell. But judging from the channel listings Mimyuni has on their website, it's quite... boring, I guess? So MNC Group just picked 5 "most-watched flagship" Cinemachi channels into their channel bouquet. This post has been edited by doubleM2: Dec 20 2023, 11:29 AM

QUOTE(linkinstreet @ Dec 22 2023, 11:23 PM) Ah, didn't see that. Maybe Unifi paid for 10 days exclusivity? To be fair the most important thing on that channel is the Emmy Awards on the 16th. As long as they secure the channel before that I don't think it makes much difference. Anyway, only HITS NOW will get free preview from Jan 10–Mar 31, 2023. The rest 5 channels (K-Plus, SHOWCASE, HBO Family, HBO Hits, Moonbug) are getting free viewing for the whole month of January.

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 22 2023, 10:47 PM) Is it? Where does it mention that it'll be on Primary Pack? Later plot twist, say that this channel is in Variety Pack pulak  Just my hunch though. 702 is quite convincing to be in Primary Pack, so let’s see after preview ends. But my early expectation HITS NOW will be on Variety Pack.

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 23 2023, 02:36 PM) HITS NOW launching on Astrohttps://advanced-television.com/2023/12/22/...ching-on-astro/As what I expected, HITS Now channel will be on Variety Pack add-on I knew it... Astro aren't that generous to offer that channel to Primary Pack customers if they want to encourage customers to take up higher tier packages  Ooh I missed that. This situation kinda feels the same thing: HITS Movies (Ch 401) is on Movies Pack (RM94.99/mth), but on NJOI it’s on HD Pack (RM15/30 days). Interesting choice. Also, NJOI users of Family Pack (RM29.90/30 days) will get the channel as well. This post has been edited by doubleM2: Dec 23 2023, 04:30 PM

QUOTE(Feliex @ Dec 23 2023, 04:39 PM) Wonder is Chinese subtitles will be available on the channel Hits NOW or not. It’s based in Singapore, Chinese viewers are plenty over there; so likely the Chinese subtitles will be available as well.

QUOTE(cdspins @ Dec 25 2023, 07:47 PM) My price got revert to RM29.99 on the 13th month. Anyway, as it is informed up front when I sign up for it and on top of that it is cheaper than multiroom ultra/ulti box. I remain using and paying it. Just sharing for those that want to sign up.  I did sign up for Multiroom Smart TV app today on Astro Self Service (the old My Astro portal). But it has stated that my RM14.99 promo price period will end on Jan 31, 2024. Let’s see.

QUOTE(pokemon @ Dec 25 2023, 09:44 PM) Start and end dates are 25th Dec 2023?Legacy plans not entitled. It means this add-on isn’t a contractual item. I guess legacy packs are also entitled to add-on Multiroom, as long as those packs are RM100 and above. Mine was only eligible to add-on Multiroom Smart TV, since I’m on Primary Pack (no contract).

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 25 2023, 11:17 PM) As of today, they no longer allow legacy Astro pack customers to add-on any kinds of Multiroom anymore, even your current subscription is RM100 and above. Have to switch to new Astro packs first, then only can. I see.

QUOTE(linkinstreet @ Dec 31 2023, 07:56 AM) Technically true Also good news for those that opted for Astro Arena Bola WITHOUT taking the sports package (EG: Primary pack + Liga Malaysia). EPL is now being shown on channel 803 and 804 with dual language commentary. Likely this might be placeholder since the Malaysian League has now finished, and the AFC Cup/AFC Champions League is also suspended due to the AFC Asian Cup next month (if you're reading this in December). Arena Bola initially is the official channel for all matches of Liga Malaysia until season 2025. Instead of just cease its broadcast, and now that the next season of MFL will be in May 2024, Astro fills in other international football matches incl. AFC & EPL on Ch 803 & 804 to cover the empty broadcast slots (on top of the reruns of previous MFL matches). This post has been edited by doubleM2: Dec 31 2023, 10:19 AM

Out of topic here.
Puzzled jap. You're using NJOI, yet you want the same treatment as using Astro.
