Folks, quick question here

WIth my recent SWU upgrade my Unifi TV box been replaced from the white to black box. What I found is the sound is 50% lower than previous box. Obviously I can increase the volume at my amplifier or TV, but kinda cumbersome, everytime need to adjust the volume.

Hence wondering if there any setting thats I missed out? The TVbox volume itself is at max. Thanks

I also tested other apps within Unifi-box, netflix, unifitv, bbc, etc all of them the volume is low
*
If it is the latest upb v2, the only vol control is those +- on the remote.

Try diff options at settings, device preferences, sounds. Also, take note some vod videos carry Dolby n dolby5.1. They may come out diff depending on yr equipment.

I personally do not find the vol lacking on any app.

Previously before changing the uinifi bos, on my Denon X8500h the volume is set at -45dB and it works across all my connections (PC, Q10pro, unifi, astro, etc) there would be slight difference when I switch between the equipment, but its was listenable, hence I dont need to manually adjust.
Now with unifiTv, I need ramp up the volume to -25-20dB!!! I need to recheck if they changed my hdmi or reused my older cable, that could also a reason, but I doubt. Didnt find time today, maybe these 2-3 days
yes its at max
I havent tested pass thru to TV, will also try it out. Since 99% of the time I use my amp.

Thx folks, will need further investigation. I guess I need spend time to setup the Unifi apps, so far manage to setup my netflix that came free, need to setup the login I guess....hate doing this...but oklah...one time thingy
*
i m also using a denon, but i use normal loudness display, not -db.

and Q10pro too! thumbup.gif (btw, i suggest u look at the new zidoo Z20pro as replacement... q10pro is getting obsolete, sluggish).

the denon volume range wud be 40-70 with the diff devices and apps.

but yes, it is possible the UPB output itself is on the soft side.

-45dB = 35 normal volume
Now I had to increase to 60 normal volume, just tried HBO

And yes q10p been sluggish and gave up recently since my parents and in-law was complaining. Basically using PC now (lenovo Y700; 7yrs old, its still ok la; has 7.1ch output as well

Thanks mate

HBOGo is poor... so poor that i hardly watch it anymore.

picture is 720p; audio DD+ option is also poor, DD comes out better.... strange.

on the other hand, Disney+H dd+ audio is good, with 4kHDR picture.

best of all is Netflix 4K - 4kHDR, Atmos audio - this is the best thing u get from Ultimate Max +RM10 for netflix 4k. thumbsup.gif

Is HBO GO itself intentionally bad or is it UnifiTV's problem? 720p on a large screen TV is lol.

Should be minimum 1080p based on what I search online. I mean 720p in 2023 is lol. Did you ask Unifi if 720p is intentional or momentarily for HBO GO?
*
i haven't asked them.

but seems everyone on ultimate is getting 720p.... crap. sad.gif

Nothing to expect on live tv since unifi tv live channel often bad. But to HBO go , I can’t see any different when using the acc via unifi plan and compared standalone subscribed previously. FYI I am using apple tv and ios

But dun get me wrong , HBO go quality is usually bad although even get it from Astro plan or standalone.

That’s why WB has started abandon HBO go app and move on with MAX on western region. Possibly we might get the same treatment on next year since WB started focus the app for APAC area.
*
How does yr HBOgo compare to Netflix 1080p or Disney+?

If u find no diff, I wud be surprised unless u r watching on mobile!

Netflix 1080p and Disney+ of course much better than HBO go. Like I say, HBO go quite notorious when comes  debate on bad quality
*
given your testimony, it does look like HBOGo, whether on AppleTV, Uunifi pack, Assteru or standalone, it is poor indeed.

i find it bizzare a big name like HBO is still selling this crap quality here.

i have no other VOD app on my devices and TVs that gives such poor quality streams. shakehead.gif

This is my personalized Unifi TV Box’s apps. Just updated to Android 12 with Netflix officially available by default besides Unifi TV app. Connected to LAN Port 4 as well for seamless viewing.

Since Lionsgate Play is discontinued, I have to disable the app in settings instead of just uninstall it. Surprisingly, both Astro TV (need Multiroom subscription) & sooka (need sooka TV Plan) apps can be downloaded directly from Play Store. I’ve downloaded it just in case, since I’m yet to subscribe those services.

either it's just a googletv UI thing or unifi is about to acquire an A co. biggrin.gif

For those who got sms on upgraded speed, does the new speed immediately reflected or need some time? I got sms this morning, came back from office and straight away reset routers/modem. Still can’t get the new 500mbps, tested using wifi6e devices. Using TP Link Archer C1200 which supposed can get 500mbps on wifi.

Is it possible the implication is a new TV pack?  Im still waiting for UnifiTV team to call back, not even sure what they can offer/nego with me as no interesting promos now.
*
i seriously doubt they have much new to offer at this time.

maybe new hbo pack, or rejuggle the minor packs.

Folks, another question, since my box is upgraded to the black hybrid box, generally I can choose to connect the box to router (lan 3 dedicated to iptv Vlan configuration) or box to internet port (not lan3).

Any disadvantage in going for option 2 with direct ethernet connection? Thanks

The new UPB no need specific LAN port like old White UPB, normal port will do  icon_rolleyes.gif

You can set-back the LAN 3 to normal by setting in Router IPTV - UniFi-Business
current unifi provided routers now use LAN3 for iptv?

all these years, it was LAN4... incl asus routers.

my recent experience.. 6 yr old asus router + upbv2:

.. upb connected to LAN4 will give slightly better picture for unifitv app.
if wifi is not turned on, no other app will work.
turn wifi on as well, u get everything working, incl netflix, disney, etc.

.. upb connected to LAN1-3, all apps will work.
unifitv app still work but picture quality is a bit lower.
wifi doesn't need to be turned on.

...upb not connected to lan, turn on WiFi.
everything works.

My expectations/suggestions for Unifi TV:
New apps: Paramount+, Vidol, Vidio, Sony LIV, Apple TV and SunNXT
New linear channels: Discovery channels (including lifestyle channels like TLC and Food Network), Lifetime, HITS NOW, HISTORY, CI, CNN, Eurosport, Zee channels, Sony India channels, TVB channels (including TVBS Asia), EBC Taiwan channels, Disney | Star India channels (like Vijay TV HD) and Sun TV channels.
New features: Cloud recording (convenient for users to record their fav programs even Unifi TV doesn't license them as VOD), multilingual menu and app surface, channel quality settings (auto-max, data saver and recommended (depends on Internet speed). smile.gif
*
will be great if they bring in Food Network and/or Asian Food Channel, History.

the rest, doesn't matter to me.

Seems likely , last time they need use vlan 600 due to hypptv time, now all black box can run both vlan , they start to abandon it and even the old box too
*
i finally junked my old silver box kept in drawer for years! laugh.gif

the new upb is pretty good all round, esp 5ghz reception.

the only thing i have an issue with is the colors that come out appear too light.

there aren't any picture/color/contrast settings on the box, right?

the apps directly used on my Android TV incl UnifiTV dun have this problem.

You got the hiccup image too on vlan600? So I'm not the only one then...I did complaint to TM, but they want to check on site which actually not convenient for me right now....I was thinking to replaced the router!!
*
this "hiccup" on unifitv channels have been around for a long time.

it doesn't happen on every channel, though.

unifitv pretends not to know but i m sure they do.

it probably has to do with the various video frame rates... 24, 25, 50, 60 fps of various videos .

i wud think they haven't invested the money to fix them all.

no, nothing to do with router.

and, it happens on unifitv app used on other devices too.

it doesn't happen with every channel. so, we hv been putting up with it.

Did you plug the upb box with vlan500 port? , at least try to plug vlan500/non-iptv port and see it how.

The latest TVS channel has insignificant fps happening since its launch. Originally it’s 25fps, using VLAN.

Happened to me on every channel for VLan 600....for normal Vlan500 through wifi, no hiccup at all...kinda sad really....Unifi especially TM supposedly should focus more for quality of service, they actually bigger than Astro!
*
i have tried on everything... i think! biggrin.gif

old silver box iptv lan4
AndroidTV wifi
upbv2 iptv lan4
upbv2 lan1-3
upbv2 wifi

i get hiccups on ALL of them, not always, only some channels.

and... one show on HBO family hasn't got this hiccup; the next one on same channel does.

which makes me suspect it's due to various diff video fps that unifitv somehow accepted since the beginning.

the upbv2 has a setting to smoothen this "seamlessly" but it doesn't work.

now, i mainly watch news on unifitv, prefer to use the main VOD apps.

if the unifitv id, pw has been set up correctly, one more thing to check:

go to playstore, see if there are any updates to any app incl unifitv app.
