Digital TV (DVB T2) Consolidated thread V

[dexter9898]

So which the best option? Get from imda or courts /best denki model ? Which model? Prefer to get my signal of course. Stay west side

For me i hav to get the box + antenna as my tv is not digital ready. If nt mistaken if get those bundle set top box, they cm with a passive antenna (no separate ac power supply) rite? They strong enugh to recev my channel?

The bundle antenna is an active antenna but without the power inserter as the set-top box can supply 5V to the antenna. Just need to turn it on from the set-top box menu under "Installation" -> Antenna Power

For Malaysia DVB-T2 on Ch47 - depends on your location, only those stay in the north can try to rx. Those in the east or south can don't bother liao. Batam is also transmitting their analog SCTV on Ch47. RF interference in Singapore air.

Get box from M1 shop...think only they have stock now

Antenna power by default is "on" if you are referring to the imda starter kit

I saw the Draco box available at Harvey Norman Suntec. BUT! It comes with the DSC250 instead of the better Funke Combo 5.1... Anyone knows where do they still have stock for the Combo 5.1?

Hi guys, wanted to ask if I am able to manually tune the digital channels to suit the corresponding numbers on the remote for the new media set top box?

The auto tuning left number 1 on my remote empty.

Also am I able to receive the free Starhub sports channel?

Thanks.

Have asked IMDA on how about receiving SH Supersports Arena, the reply is that is a free channel from SH on the cable network ..... They will not mandate SH to transmit it free on T2 ...... Other countries like Malaysia, Thailand, Hk, TV networks use T2 to launch more exclusive T2 Chs .... Only in SG, IMDA will just sit there and dun do anything.

I see, so if I would like to watch sports, I will have to either subscribe to cable TV, or get an android box.

After I terminated my SCV subscription, my Starhub SCV Box still can receive free SCV Channels, including free Sports Channels.
If you have the Starhub SCV box with non-digital ready TV, no need rush to get DVB-T2 Digital Tuner, use SCV box ( DVB-C)serve as Digital Turner.

Thanks for the notice, but my family does not subscribe to cable TV, so no SCV box.

Also the IMDA personnel came and installed the New Media Solutions set top box today.

Starhub also phasing out their cable tv and getting their subscribers to change to IPTV. All services on cable will end soon.

All boxes and TV with DVB-T2 can receive Malaysia channels. U cannot receive signal doesn't means your box is locked to local channels. Digital TV is transmitting only 1 and 0. Either u can receive or u totally can't receive. Don't expect grainy images like analogue TV.
