QUOTE(joshhd @ Nov 6 2019, 12:59 PM) MYTV indeed is a monopoly and single player for Malaysia DTT. If you ask this to MYTV, their answers would be like: "Oh, we invested millions to billions to build the DTT infrastructure in Malaysia, and provide Malaysians digital TV broadcasts for free, and viewers just have to use a DVB-T2 box and UHF antenna to receive it. So when new satellite pay tv players want to have combo tuners with DVB-T2, we have to right to charge them lor... We can't just let them have the DVB-T2 function build in to a satellite pay tv STB just like that to allow viewers to watch DTT channels for free. It's like your "service" depends on our technology to get channels without paying. We invested so much money in infrastructure leh, and it's justifiable for us to charge them. " Basically, they want to earn some money lor... Which creates a market for non-MCMC approved third party T2/S2 decoders on Lazada and Shopee. |

QUOTE(YoungMan @ Nov 9 2019, 07:20 PM) You can install the Tonton app and the RTM app. Otherwise can also use browser to watch on RTM website or tonton.com.my No single app? Troublesome to switch apps just to change channel from RTM to Media Prima stuff |

QUOTE(dayojah @ Nov 13 2019, 09:24 PM) Those "DVBT" USB PC dongles also receive stereo FM radio, so you could use a laptop The right one can scan many, many radio transmissions. For example you can track planes flying over your taman, see the unlock code to your neighbour's Ferrari...  This post has been edited by totally_skint: Nov 14 2019, 02:50 AM |

QUOTE(9M-MAS @ Nov 14 2019, 07:29 AM) Been googling about this with no meaningful result - can you point to where I can pursue this? Very interesting! Google "RTL-SDR" The RTL refers to the Realtek chips used while SDR means Software Defined Radio. This post has been edited by totally_skint: Nov 14 2019, 04:12 PM |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Nov 17 2019, 11:31 AM) How wrapped around the plate? Can show how you do it on your antenna?  The braided strand mentioned is the fine copper wire around the central core. Just "fold" it back over the outer white insulator as if you are pulling your long sleeved shirt over your arm. |

QUOTE(Wobblyblob @ Nov 22 2019, 01:18 AM) I hope Media Prima can bring back the Chinese and English movie slots and air it over at TV3 again as usual and like before. I never watch movies on TV3 any more. Heavily and clumsily cut. Imagine watching a two hour movie in the two hour time slot (10PM to midnight) which is also loaded with at least half an hour or more of commercials.  You do the maths. RTM is OK |

QUOTE(joshhd @ Nov 27 2019, 08:16 PM) Buy online can get dy... And the cheap affordable ones from local sellers already good enough. Cheap may be fake. I got a few power extension cords that failed after some time. When I opened up the electrical wires I find it's largely turned black. Sometimes got white powder too. It seems there are fake copper wire coming out of China these days. It is basically iron wire coated in copper. Eventually the iron rusts and the wire breaks. Any one see such wires used in coax cables? |

What is the difference between the Pensonic, Green Packet and Botato decoders mentioned on the first page?

QUOTE(joshhd @ Dec 31 2019, 12:13 AM) It's just the brand... It's just like, when you want to buy a DVD player, there are several brands available for you to choose from, such as Panasonic, Samsung, Philips, Sharp, and some even cheap China brands that you and I never hear before. So yea, same concept applies as buying a digital TV box. QUOTE(dayojah @ Dec 31 2019, 09:39 AM) But remember that the RM90 DVD player that you bought in the supermarket only lasted one year So, avoid Botato then? It's the cheapest while Pensonic is over three times more expensive. |

QUOTE(AV_2018 @ Dec 31 2019, 11:34 AM) The one on Pensonic site is not Pensonic brand. It is MYTV one which is made by Kaon Media. The list of shops that sell this model can be found on MYTV website linked on the first page of this topic here. I don't know about the other STBs but the MYTV one shown on Pensonic site supports HbbTV when connected to Internet. It is laggy when using HbbTV though. There might be newer type of MYTV STB available. I've seen some photos on these forums of a STB that supports 4K. What's important to me is the reliability and quality of playback. Are they all of the same video quality? |

How come Bukit Tampin transmitter only have Mux 1?
Is this why I can't receive any RTM or radio channels?
Signal strength for the Media Prima stuff that I can get is 100%
Using Green Packet decoder with outdoor UHF antenna.
