Only if you're on Multicast IPTV that runs on VLAN 600.

TM also has their own CDN, so...

Singapore Mediacorp's mewatch offers 8Mbps streaming? Are you sure? It doesn't look like it. Plus, it's only 25fps for them. Where do you see they offer 8Mbps streaming?

Until today they still using dedicated VLAN for Multicast IPTV, so...

HBO GO does have 5.1 audio, but not all of the content.

The audio from HBO GO app, including 5.1 audio is not the same as original quality due to PAL speedup, where you'll notice the audio pitch is slightly higher than original.

The price hike are starting effective today for new or rejoiners. Existing users will pay the new price on the next billing cycle.

I doubt Unifi TV will absorb it.
But if price hike is going to happen to affected packs, then Unifi TV becomes no good?
Lowyat.net and Soyacincau have published article on this already.
For those who pay ala carte addon and billed through Astro, will still be getting this price hike.
While for those on a bundle pack that has Netflix in it, will experience price hike from 1 March 2025.

I'd like to ask, is it correct that Unifi TV don't offer IQIYI Premium VIP plan at all?

Thanks for the confirmation. I was wondering how come Unifi website didn't mention anything about this, not even mentioning "Standard VIP".

Comparison of apps addon prices: Astro vs Unifi (Dec 2024)

Instead of subscribing to your favourite streaming apps individually (e.g. using your own payment methods like debit/credit card or e-wallet), you can consider subscribing to them through either Astro or Unifi, especially if you already have either Astro or Unifi installed at home. The main advantage is that you might be able to enjoy a lower subscription fee for some of the streaming apps, as well as the convenience of an all-in-one-bill.

Some of the Astro/Unifi TV packages have included some or all of your favourite apps. It is a highly recommended option since it provides the best value, but it usually comes with 24-month contract, and not everyone is a fan of that.
Instead, you can still subscribe to them as a standalone add-on through your preferred provider (Astro or Unifi), where the streaming app's subscription fee will be added to your Astro or Unifi monthly bill. That way, there will be no contract, hence you’d have the flexibility to remove them anytime.

Both Astro and Unifi offer various streaming apps, but you could save some money by checking which provider can gives you the lowest price for your preferred apps.
Here's a comparison of the app’s add-on prices between Astro and Unifi:

Yes. It's all because of Netflix.
All Unifi TV packs that has Netflix bundled in it, are affected.

The previous Astro packs with Netflix, will also experience price hike in March 2025 too.
So it's not just Unifi TV...

My best guess is, ONE has a low viewership for Unifi TV?
As for Zee Thirai, probably some last minute changes on agreement between the channel provider

How irony that is, considering that our country is getting the subpar Disney+ Hotstar rather than the international version of Disney+.

Meaning, they can afford to pay HD fees for Unifi TV but not digital terrestrial (MYTV)... 😌

Unifi TV be like: "Why bother spending money to continue a TV channel with very low viewership?"

Generally, Astro has better picture quality than Unifi TV.

If you stream Astro through set-top-box or Multiroom Smart TV app, you can get up to Full HD 50fps, up to 4K (Love Nature and Astro Sports UHD), and also Dolby 5.1 audio (if the channel has it).
Compared to Unifi TV, maximum is up to Full HD 25fps. You can get Full HD 50fps if you watch it through Unifi TV's IPTV Multicast (connect to LAN 4 port of the router). As for audio, both are in Stereo audio only.

If you want to get the best picture quality possible with no picture quality fluctuation whatsoever due to adaptive bitrate streaming:
Astro - Use satellite dish
Unifi TV - Use the IPTV Multicast version (connect to LAN 4 port of the router)

No, even if they really discontinue its IPTV service, the audio-visual quality of their existing non-IPTV service will very likely remain as-is (1080p 25fps).
But since the new box still supports IPTV Multicast, then enjoy jer... No need to think until so far

TM so proactively deliver new STB to customer's home even without asking the customer?
Then what if the customer end up keep the new STB in the store room and didn't bother turning it on, or give excuses like "I don't need it, I don't watch TV also"?

Can share screenshots?
Or anyone?
