QUOTE(pokemon @ Dec 5 2023, 12:04 PM) Assthrow app is too lousy and probably cannot pass apple strict system environment. They don't support media streaming devices. TNC is Astro Go for small portable device (phone/tablet), Astro TV for static devices (selected TV models). Apple TV is a media streaming device like those Mi Stick/Mi TV/Chromecast/MeCoolThis post has been edited by linkinstreet: Dec 5 2023, 03:11 PM |

QUOTE(pokemon @ Dec 5 2023, 04:28 PM) Assthrow thought is they are fighting pirates with so many restrictions so they are digging their own grave holes. Is it even an apt comparison? Sooka is mostly used as for viewing linear TV, and majority of the linear TV channels in this region are maxed out at 1080p. IIRC only Love Nature 4K is broadcasted at 4K, most of the others are just special broadcast during matches and such. Anyway, the shows at Assthrow platform is getting worsen day by day with tonnes of repeats.. Streaming companies like Netflix, Disney, Prime Video etc are showing more of the shows in 4K where Sooka is still FHD at the max video resolution. All your other examples are on demand services, and not live linear channels. |

QUOTE(pokemon @ Dec 19 2023, 12:24 AM) Doesn't seem like a novel competitor for assthrow. It's a competitor not in the general consumer space. It's targeting retail establishment like those hotel TV channels which don't care about the channel contents as long as they have something to put on TV channels in the room.QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 18 2023, 10:57 PM) Upon launching day, then expect superior picture and audio quality, plus 4K channel already?Β Have you scanned OK Vision's DVB-S2's signals yet? Any unencrypted channels?  Seems like you guys have a way higher expectation than me π   QUOTE(doubleM2 @ Dec 18 2023, 08:43 PM) So here are the channel listings that OK Vision offers: If you get NHK Premium on FTA, then that's a steal. In other countries you only get the general NHK World Japan, and have to pay to get the Premium channel.

Meanwhile, most of these channels (especially prepaid ones), I suspect, will be in Indonesian feed with Indonesian dubbing/subtitles. I might subscribe to it soon, just for observation purposes. Also not to be confused between Hijrah TV (which is available free-to-air) and TV AlHijrah (which isn't). Last but not least, welcome back Arirang, Motorvision, Outdoor Channel, and ZooMoo to Malaysia. QUOTE(smileguy @ Dec 18 2023, 07:25 PM) this guys story take it with a pinch of salt Kek they are using an RM50'ish generic DVB-S2 box from Ali-Express. Even the channel UI is similar to those DVB-T2 box that I used to get MYTV. Basically I can confidently say that the box supports maximum 1080i/1080P AVC and HEVC. No 4K support.

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? It's called PWA. If you noticed more and more website that has an app like twitter and FB is now the same wether you are browsing from a browser or using an app. Basically why create two version of something when one is easier to mantain. |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 20 2023, 06:40 AM) If like this, then it seems like every single apps on Ulti/Ultra Box are all Progressive Web App (PWA)? Depends on the app developer I presume. But most are moving towards PWA. Note that the playback streaming of the media would still be handled natively by the app , and when you "update" the app, it's the player you're updating. But since that is not really done frequently, you are seeing less updates for your app which is a good thing for end user.So the "apps" we see on Ulti/Ultra Box home page, is basically a "web shortcut" (like we save Bookmarks on our web browsers)? |

QUOTE(Iptvfan @ Dec 22 2023, 11:16 PM) Obviously 10 days late. Miss New Year 1 Jan programming. Too late too slow nowadays they all. Anyway better than none. 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. |

QUOTE(Superman7 @ Dec 25 2023, 09:27 AM) I have several questions which I hope some experts here can help. Couldn't search the entire forum since it's 871 pages now and no pin-ups in the 1st page. 1. No announcement as of yet when it's going to change.1. Astro Multiroom supports 1 SmartTV with additional RM14.99/month promotional period now. Any idea when the promo period would end? 2. All Astro subscriptions regardless of packages are min. 24 months? 3. I'm interested in Sports Package which is a price of 99.99/month exclusive of tax. Is this package entitled for Multiroom subscription? FAQ seems to say min. 100 exclusive of tax. Just want to double-check it here with those that has experience. 4. Multiroom is said to work within the same household. Does it work the same way as Netflix now? or not yet? 2. You can actually get 1 year or even 0 year contract, but they are a bit more expensive than 24 months. 3. Yes, it needs to be above RM100. I have the same issue as when I downgraded my Astro. I wanted the Sports pack only, but since it was below RM 100 and I had Multiroom, I was given the choice of adding something to make it above RM100 or foregoing Multiroom. I added the education pack after that. 4. Technically the TnC says it needs to be installed in the same household, but no, Astro can't detect if it's used elsewhere. Just nudge nudge wink wink I know you know and leave it at that. This post has been edited by linkinstreet: Dec 25 2023, 10:57 AM |

QUOTE(Superman7 @ Dec 26 2023, 09:20 AM) One more question. The Multiroom app on TV has exactly all the same channels/package subscription as the main TV box?  The same, except you won't get Radio, NHK Premium (not NHK world as in the image), and if you're not using Astro Fibre, Sky News. Superman7 liked this post

QUOTE(muscaa @ Dec 27 2023, 09:39 PM)  very unrealistic move to eradicate all the tv box live streaming of premier leagueI presume the word "pirated" here refer to the tv boxes with preinstalled streaming apps You just need a streaming apps which is absolutely free and they show live premier league football from countries eg. UK, US, SA, NZ etc  No way they can block it https://torrentfreak.com/two-arrested-in-pi...cribers-231214/ https://torrentfreak.com/transnational-pira...rcement-231220/ https://torrentfreak.com/premier-league-tar...s-court-231218/ https://torrentfreak.com/pirate-iptv-raids-...network-221111/   Even popular ones like SVICloud seems to be attracting the ire of Motions Picture Association https://torrentfreak.com/ace-applauds-svicl...topping-231006/ This is why Astro is watermarking their sports channel again to identify the users that are pirating their stream. |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 31 2023, 01:18 AM) Well, it's still a "new year" anyway...Β 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).
