QUOTE(Qash-M @ Aug 12 2018, 08:24 PM)  Seem like Astro decided to use HEVC. According to the faqs from the link: QUOTE I would like to subscribe to Astro’s 4K UHD service. How can I do so, and how much will this service cost? Astro’s 4K UHD services is not commercially available yet. To watch Astro’s 4K UHD broadcast, customers will require a 4K UHD set top box from Astro, to be unveiled later this year. However, Astro’s 4K UHD service is available for preview at selected 4K UHD showcase locations with our partners. You may register your interest for 4K UHD from Astro here, and we will keep you updated with the latest news and availability on the 4K UHD services. Plus the signal from Measat 3a 12316 V seem to indicate HEVC codec. Not that my freesat can decode it.  |
