Can you receive preview channel and supersports?
Hi bros. After reading the few posts on the SCV ports on the walls. Can I say that my TV will receiving the digital channels from there? Because I did the scanning but no results. And I feel like buying the antenna now as I cannot tahan the poor quality. My TV have the built-in DVB-T2 tuner. Any help? I am staying in Punggol. Or is it because my area here is not ready yet as seen on the MDA site?
There is another thread on equipment used by fellow bros. And I found two of them, one living in punggol or the other in Seng Kang who bought the antenna. And they are already enjoying the digital channels.
The MDA site also nvr mention that the SCV ports will be used for receiving the digital channels leh.
Any advise. Thanks!

You need a DVB-T2 indoor antenna with booster/amplifier function as the SCV point isn't made to transmit DVB-T2 signals.
Nope, they will not be using the SCV ports and yes, you die die need an indoor antenna if you want digital channels.Hi bro, I look at the map by mediacorp. Punggol will be ready 2015/2016. By then will they use this SCV ports? Or is it die die must buy the antenna? Thank you!

You also possibly need an indoor antenna with booster/amplifier function as Punggol currently don't have DVB-T2 indoor reception yet.
I guess you are getting the DVB-T Channel 5 (610MHz). DVB-T is quite bad, think TVMobile.
The DVB-T2 HD 5 is 538MHz, try to reposition your antenna
Just to answer my own questions.
1. Recording to NTFS works! I time-recorded 2 hours strech of video & it is recorded into a single 8GB mts file. This is better than some tuner boxes that only allows one to record into a FAT32 USB device where the recording will be broken into multiple 4GB files.
2. subtitles work as & when available. See below.
3. When I use XBMC to analyse the recordings, it showed many of the programs are actually in dolby digital plus. Now that actual post a problem with my low end Philip receiver that actually have the dialogue came out from both center & the front left & front right speakers... I have no idea how to play dolby digital plus 5.1 audio correctly so far. Rightfully, dialogue is supposed to come out from center speaker only if it's decoded & played back correctly. Anybody knew how? This seemed to be supported by only very advanced receiver only.
4 Question: how to record in other format than mts? Any expert can advice?
OK! Thanks bro! What brand should I go for? I see courts, Best and HN selling Daiyo and Draco brands. Still have one more but i cannot rmb it well. What's ur set-up as well?

just received this, connected to my MATV
picture is ok but the sound is funny, sound like it's coming from a tin can.
quite disappointed with this.
Do not try this model.
Hi all,
Can you confirm that those DVB-T2 receiver you guys bought from Aliexpress can do EPG recording? I asked the Sinho seller. He has no idea what I am talking.
EPG recording means this, Eg. you see Germany vs Argentina to be aired on channel 5 4am~7am next Monday. You see this on the EPG & just click on it & let the unit sits there & by Monday, it will automatically record the program start time & ends at program end time according to the EPG.
I am surprised ShinHo does not know what is EPG recording when he sold many such units.
Your answer will be appreciated. Thanks for being helpful in the channel.
What eaxaclty the switch called? I bougt one last time 5 dollars but didnt work. My tv is lg 690T. The tv can store two modes silmultaniously meh?can detect the switching between cable and Matv?Yes, there are switches. Go to ur neighbourhood electrical store.
Hi coyote,
hope to get your input on 3 questions:
1. You bought the 3rd (most bottom) model in the picture right?
2. Do you need to manually select audio for HD channels? I read that some models have no sound for HD channels by default and hence need to manually select the audio stream.
3. How are the audio and picture quality? Are you connecting through HDMI?
4. Is the audio in sync with the video?
Thank you!

1. Yes.
2. No need, somehow my default option always has sound. When I press "Audio", there were usually 3 audio channels to choose from, some has no sound presumably because it's expecting to output to dolby digital plus 5.1 which I don't have the audio receiver to decode that. So, I guess that's normal. For the default stereo I always have sound.
3. Standard quality, can't tell much as I'm connecting to a HD-Ready 720p 32" TV. Yes, connected via HDMI.
4. Never encounter audio out-of-sync so far.
