Hi guys,

Not sure if it is fine to ask here, but would appreciate any advice.

During analogue days, you need a TV point to connect to the TV, does it make that nowadays its digital, hence no need the TV point?

Current room in HDB (old flat) does not have any TV point. If I want to have a TV in the room, other than getting the digital setup box for the free to air channel, do i need to get someone to install the TV point?

TIA!
I have a brand new DVB-T2 set top box... would u be interested in it?

Is it still worth to buy FHD models like Sony W800G / W660G ?

Purpose : Movie playback 1080p x265 10bit from laptop(Seldom) + Free to air channels(Mediacorp).

Wall to Wall distance : 315CM

Does anyone noticed if the brightness of local Mediacorp channel thru DVB T2 is brighter than other TV sources eg Netflix?

They seem to have done some update of the channel. Ticker message on the channel seems to say to switch to another channel and change back if u encounter blank image.

If cannot, then try to retune ch8.

Thanks for your reply. Already tried switching different channels earlier on without any result, will ask my parents try again later see how. Hope no need to retune, my parents & many old folks surely will have problem doing that.

Try to retune the channel and all other MediaCorp channels. Recently they made the stereo audio channel default and shifted the 5.1 channel to the third audio channel.
