The playTV app should be updated with some existing features the IPTV box already has—channel mosaic, PIP, original quality of the stream, etc.
*
that, i agree.

the UI can be much improved. Netflix, Linsgate, iQiyi UI's are all very good.

2. Regarding the Netflix issue in UPB. TM needs to work with Netflix to offer a Netflix license in UPB as UPB has not yet received a certificate from Netflix.
*
Netflix certification is costly... i doubt unifi wants to pay.

moreover, netflix is probably more interested to certify smart TVs and limited devices only.

and they wanna collect subscription on their own, not share with anyone.

QUOTE(Mr Loh A+ @ Oct 6 2021, 06:34 PM)
"At the moment, Netflix is very slow, and perhaps even reluctant, to test and authorize new devices.

This is in part because manufacturers need to sell a minimum number  of devices in a particular region (i.e. United States) in order to get certified by Netflix. Without that certification, Netflix has no reason to treat them as anything other than tablets.

It’s a classic “chicken and the egg” story. Without selling these units, they won’t be able to get Netflix 4K, but without Netflix 4K, it will be very difficult to sell that many units."

Source: https://androidpcreview.com/netflix-hd-android-tv-box/

That explains why Unifi is pushing their subscribers to get the UPB box, so they can get the Netflix certificate as soon as they meet their required amount of active box users.

that UPB box is probably worth rm30 if u buy in bulk. tongue.gif

and... with more n more ATV tvs being sold, i can't see why netflix will be thrilled by that UPB.

I hope ‘customised OS’ means they will use Android TV with operator tier—integrate the Android TV user interface with their existing IPTV interface somehow, or creating a new one, or like what Astro says they’ll do by the end of this year, use a Linux interface and somehow allow installation of Android apps.
So hybrid meaning both IPTV and OTT streaming.
But honestly, the quality should stay the same if they’re using this hybrid box. All they need to do is use the same stream as the white box and you should get the same quality. And there’s that added benefit of being able to install Android TV apps on hopefully a nice-looking user interface.
*
What does the word hybrid mean?

I think it means iptv + digital tuner.

TM might be dishing it out in remote areas for those without internet.

Satellite? I doubt it.

The image looks more like HP43A. Hope the hybrid means VLAN600 + Wi-Fi. That way the dedicated multicast IPTV network can still be used and the image quality will be 'broadcast grade' like with previous STBs as well as uninterrupted by network congestion while having the possibility of running streaming apps.
*
better wait for it to come out, see what it will really be. biggrin.gif

the casing may be exactly the same, china manufacturer can put anything inside if u order in bulk.

but i will be surprised if it doesn't run on ATV.

Kinda disappointed with Spotv2... doesn't fit with Msian sports...Spotv its ok ,it caters racing...but nobody in Msia really into Korean baseball and Volleyball...

agree... this one totally unappealing for us here. unifi probably got it for free!

For those using the Unifi TV Android TV App, does it crash after a while for you? I usually like to just put something on the TV when I sleep, and I tried with Unifi TV the past few days. But usually when I woke up it's crashed back on the home screen for me, and sometimes it will say "Session has ended".

I don't have any issues with other app like Youtube/Twitch
*
smooth, no crashing when using unifiTV on sharp smart ATV.

using on 2TVs, one 5ft wifi, the other 50ft.

perhaps the mibox is not as optimized as the ATV TVs.

kaypoh sikit,
which +1 app that most of you chose?
*
iqiyi - i used paid service for 3 months b4 unifi free stream.
iqiyi, unifitv, lionsgate all come out pretty good on my smart ATV.
PQ very close to old silver STB now - i seldom power it up anymore.

QUOTE(Iptvfan @ Oct 11 2021, 05:10 PM)
Can use phone or tablet but i use the upb. Quite convenient but if dont have upb is not good. Unifi should give upb at least to all ultimate pack for free. Now they sell and too expensive. No good
*
too costly, they can dream on, i will not pay for it! biggrin.gif

Hi guys, I chose Lionsgate + IQIYI as an ultimate pack user. After installing the IQIYI app on the tv, I went to see the display settings and 4k is listed as premium. After choosing that, it gives me 3 options. There is standard monthly subscription at RM1.90, premium yearly subscription at RM239.90 and a limited time offer for premium monthly subscription for free. If I choose the free option, I still need to give my credit card information. My question is if I choose this option, will it forever be free until I am no longer an ultimate pack user?
*
good question!

i just checked... u r right - it shows 4K as premium, RM0 for monthly subscription!

somebody probably need to ask unifi/iQiyi!

I wonder for how many months this "RM15" will you have to pay
*
QUOTE(Iptvfan @ Oct 20 2021, 04:07 PM)
24months for sure
*
this box has always been priced for 24 months, right?

was it not rm20 pm before?

at rm15, it is still rm360 total - still high... rm10x24 months may be OK.


anyway, unifitv used on ATV tv has been good so far, no complaints.

yes, this happens sometimes.

go to tv settings and do a restart.

OR, unplug the tv power, put it back on.

Nope. Just a Samsung FHD TV but unigitv picture quality is among the worst. Astro picture quality much better...

Cannot compare unifitv atv app with aztro box stream.

Fair to compare unifitv atv app stream with astrogo app on compatible device... Unifitv app wins hands down!

I find unifitv atv app getting better better.

If I'm not mistaken, the Unifi TV app (not to be confused with unifi playTV app) can be download right from the Google Play Store and install in devices running Android TV OS. Correct me if I'm wrong.

yes, it is google ATV certified.

u should try it someday, then u know how good or bad as everyone says.

PQ is now better than astro go - this one, try to get those AHs to allow to play on ATV la...!! laugh.gif

I think he is comparing Unifi TV app with Astro Go, which he is correct, since Unifi TV App streams at 1080p, while Astro Go only streams at highly compressed 720p.

surely u need to compare apples with apples.

u cannot compare dedicated box with android/ATV apps.

how about comparing astro box with netlfix (no box)?

or compare with appletv with box?
