No. It's just the "time" like this. Nothing.

During programme ads, the voiceover of the person talking about the show is in English (with Indian accent), while the audio of the content is still in Hindi but with hardcoded English subtitles.

However, both English and Malay subtitle options are available and will appear when the programme (e.g. series, movies) is airing as usual.
Subtitles are not hardcoded. But then, some programme I came across previously it's hardcoded in English.  hmm.gif
Doesn't matter much to me anyway...

This channel is MY feed if not mistaken. Because before astro changed the channel number, it has ch108 indicator in every ad.

Like I said before lor, Astro CS agents are too stressed until no mood to work ady...
When you got no mood to work, you won't have the heart to go and properly read the whole post.
Just roughly read the post, like the "keywords" of the post then roughly guess, then straightaway assume something, then copy paste an answer.
Done. Click or scroll to "Next enquiry".

Customer service agents are humans too... Humans do get stressed at work, you know? tongue.gif
You can't expect them to serve each and every customer so wholeheartedly like a VVIP just because you are their loyal customer for so many years or even since Astro introduced in 1996.

But then, if don't answer customer's enquiries also cannot wor... Later customer say they're not professional. So how? sad.gif
Copy paste answers is the way to go. biggrin.gif
Better than no answer brows.gif

They gave wrong answer? Apologise lorr... Say sorry only mah... Apa susah? If customer make noise, then let them make noise lor. Give them the impression that we are there for them. brows.gif
Once they finish making noise, then we'll get back to business. What customer want? Rebate or free channel preview?
That's how you handle disaster in customer service. brows.gif

Who knows..
Astro staff no more OT given...
Or salary cut.. thus the staff no mood to do work..
Also u see now there's spike complaint on censorship... And it's might go on line another few more weeks or possibly months too 🤣

Anyway since MCO got extended..
The technician have long backlog to attend...
So those want to use them.. better prepared to wait longer....

🤯, Astro Go is the leading OTT platform? Sounds like they are making up numbers ?

If want ads free then sub to Netflix lo.... or switch to NJOI and get the same amount of ads

When they opened up Astro Go to all Malaysians (typically non-Astro customers), it is obvious that they want to increase the numbers of users to make it look like a lot.
Maybe that's one of their way to convince the advertisers that "Hey advertisers! Look, there's more non-Astro customers using my Astro Go platform since the MCO. Come advertise your brand with me."

No lah of course... Content offering are similar to Njoi Now, which has already ceased.
When open the TV Guide, you'll see only these:

The home page of Astro Go for non Astro customers, is like a stripped off version from the full version of Astro Go.

To most people, the first impression will be like "Boring.... shakehead.gif "
Normal lah, can't complain on free stuff.

If Astro simulcasts both SD and HD version of the same channel on Astro Go, it is like streaming 2 versions of the same channel, which is a waste of resources to them.
What for? whistling.gif

"HD for free? Yea, we offer HD channel for free on Astro Go platform to non-Astro customers. See? Astro so good, right?" biggrin.gif

Based on this link, no popup channel for Ramadan. Instead they include Ramadan programs in existing channels like Ria, Oasis, Warna, and Naura: https://www.astro.com.my/mediaroom/articled...rnakan-ramadan-
