I'm using samsung 50ku6000 no antenna used. Only connected to scv wallpoint.
I can find sd channel of channel 8, u, 5, okto, suria and cna but unable to find hd channels of it. Few weeks ago I'm still able to watch all of the hd channels except for channel u.

are you using dvb-c? starhub recently reassigned all the mediacorp HD channels, may be you want to do a re-scan?

If your place has good signal, use this $2 antenna or something similar to this:

The signal not very good...

Was using this but when window close then lost signal.

I have rescan countless of times.
There are 2 ways of scanning - auto and manual.

In case you have missed the manual scan, try it as shown according to the user manual.

Btw, according to Samsung website, the digital tuner is DVB-T2(VN: DVB-T2C)... Haha...

The answer is not so straight forward...

If the tv socket is a scv socket, then your tv must have a dvb-c tuner. The digital TV ready sticky just means that the tv has a dvb-t2 tuner.

If the tv socket is a matv point, then you may or may not be able to receive the digital signal. See this post for detailed explanation:
