Hi everyone, since my family cancelled Astro a few years ago, both the TVs have been sleeping and not been used. Both were Samsung LED and it had speaker issue plus the screen had one long line at one corner. Don't know if it is worth repairing or just keep as a computer monitor.

Thinking to get a replacement of Astro but i need something that is easy for them to use. I know there are many Android boxes out there but it might be a little complicated for them.

Therefore, what do you guys use for your parents to watch?

Where got complicated.
Either u buy Amazon or SVI-Cloud also OK.
Plug n play. No need install additional programme. Unless u want too, they can support. Amazon I'm not so sure.

I assume you are looking for a traditional TV viewing experience.

If you using Unifi broadband, Unifi PlayTV is almost similar like traditional TV. I think you can install it on selected TV box. You can get more details in thread below:

If not, just go for MYTV freeview channel. It is free. Maybe need to spend a bit on decoder and indoor antenna.

If your place can't get freeview signal, then Njoi.

Is it a smart tv. If so no need to spend any money. Pm me I have a perfect solution without you needing to spend a cent

my family also use tv box

hi there
there are some app that samsung can install but not so good. Can help if u get a box get an android box. pm me i can help you setup a nice entertainment system
at no cost

It seems like ur parent dont really watch tv that much. Why dont you just install MYTV jee. It should be enough for them and its not complicated at all.

What about myiptv4k? If you have an Android box. Quite easy to use.

im using longtv for 1.5years now.. so far so good. it has astro channel and live channel as well am quite satisfied . the only downside is the UI not so frenly for old folks to use. prefer hypptv ui but nothing is perfect i guess.

Recommend the new SviCloud 8P. I got all the Astro channels and more. The most important thing is as long as you have good broadband, it plays superbly. Testing with all Astro channels including Astro sports4. Silky smooth during the live session.

buy Xiaomi Mi box S, subscribe TVB anywhere+ for RM19.90, buy air mouse remote control if App is unfriendly to remote control.

Parent happy can watch TVB until eye bleed.

Can pm me how to subscribe it

No need to subscribe, just buy the box. That's all you need.

Can you guys juz pm for replies rather than bragging can see asteruk on bla bla bla android box?? do you even know asteruk/telcos are doing things behind the scene to block these servers from us users???

my parents just bought an evpad 5s MY edition for RM450 ..pretty easy to use and the pictures are sharp on their Samsung 65"

googling sybertv/odtv...beres.. watch till die

I have been using Youtube and Netflix mostly for my parents.

good mixture of news, and movies on both.

hi, may i ask the solution from you?
thanks you
best regards

Buy MyTV box. All the free telestrial channels can watch. No need assthrowup

Been using EVPad for a few years now.
Okay so far.
Easy to use for the elderly.
But live TV is sometimes unable to watch, or bad audio or no HD.
