QUOTE(JuneResources @ Sep 5 2018, 03:44 PM) Still prefer more new player for IPTV, but not the satellite broadcast. Although it's good for rural area (especially don't have so called "cable area"), but seriously the satellite broadcast is outdated technology.. Now more ppl using mobile devices or internet to stream of the channels. If still need to use satellite, rather than use the C-band (Although it's more expensive than Ku band). However subscriber enjoy 98% no interruptions of poor weather.. Unless another new player for free satellite compete just like Njoi... But will they wiling to invest of this? If the local TV picture quality looks better than the one on NJOI/regular Astro, i guess it'll be worth it. |

Unfortunately here mytv also sucks,frequent no signals! End of the day no choice hv to get NJOI for local news updates.When I compare NJOI and Mytv i feel njoi is more reliable! This is the scenario here and thats why astro wins end of the day  Paytv and internet is getting expensive,many of us cannot afford that.For now its only dual players like TM unifi,if you are covered just get it for RM139 !  |

Hi all, I plan to get a second decoder for my parents' house and I understand that the second decoder must be installed within the same house if we want to get it at RM50/mth.
I plan to ask a friend who knows how to do the installation to help install it at my parents house, but need a new dish, right? Does the second decoder comes with a dish or just the decoder?

Astro Byond...no PVR..? For 2 Astro Byond need to change single LNB to dual LNB on the same dish,new cable to new decoder. Maybe Astro will give all new. |
