As far as I know, ATSC is only for US and South Korea. DVB-T2 already can do what ATSC 3 can do. ATSC is behind DVB before this ATSC 3.

Yup, DVB is an international standard(heard more about DVB than ATSC), looks like ATSC standard only implemented in few countries only

Maybe not yet, Astro has 1 rojak UHD channel, CH780 and there's one made in Malaysia UHD content coming soon

oh, if this the case then we'll probably won't see it anytime soon... even NJOI doesn't have any HD content for free so MYTV is probably not in a rush for UHD/HD content

You cannot see the pixels on a 60" 4K TV, so UHD is rather pointless in most peoples houses.
HDR done properly is more interesting, but does require a much higher bitrate than any Malaysian broadcaster use

For HEVC 50fps, what video bitrate you think is enough?

6Mbps.

Erm, I mean 4K UHD quality, HEVC 50fps.
You sure 6Mbps ah?

Depends on image content, amount of motion, encoder used, bitrate mode and encoding mode/settings.

Then what's the maximum video bitrate you would think it's enough, especially during fast motion scenes?

And what encoding mode and settings you'd like them to use?

Oh, in that case:

6Mbps for 1080i
16Mbps for UHD.

For 4K HDR... Around 20Mbps with x265 encoder in two-pass high quality variable bitrate mode probably... But likely won't be possible for broadcast which requires real-time encoding and usually constant bitrate.

Netflix probably uses x264 encoder in variable bitrate mode for 1080p60 videos in AVC codec and they use bitrates beyond 7.25Mbps for some TV shows with lots of motion.

For 1080i50 broadcast, I would like 8-10Mbps constant bitrate for channels with lots of motion unless they use a very good encoder then can lower bitrate.

Ntv 7 8tv still SD quality ...

Tell us here no point one.

Ask Media Prima instead, why is all Media Prima channels (TV3, NTV7, 8TV and TV9) is still in SD quality on Astro, and when will HD quality available? You complain to Astro also, they'll probably just close one eye, and move on to other complaint cases.

Speaking of it, the "myfreeview" watermark on MP channels is removed.

serious since when?

my MYTV decoder still appear the watermark....

Now what are the channels still has the Siaran Digital myFreeview watermark?

Now left channel 114, 120 and 121 with "Siaran Digital myFreeview" watermark and rtm HD sports and BES with "SALURAN PERCUBAAN" watermark.

The radio stations now have background images.

You use official mytv decoder with internet support? Or tv with HBBTV support? Cause only both of this can recieve visual on radio

Just turn on TV, and ya, noticed no more watermark.

Yeah...!
