It’s better to rely on mewatch if you have poor reception.
just use StarHub and it’s set top box.

I read mediaxorp site can use existing UHF antenna for Digital tv ?
yes, you can use existing uhf antenna.

you can also buy a dedicated outdoor antenna for DTV.

yes, but your antenna has to point to the digita; transmitter, which might not be in the same direction as the transmitter for analog signal.

connect to try out, if weak/no signal then have to re-position the antenna.

https://www.mediacorp.sg/digitaltvAll answer is here👆

What if I live in a landed property?​

An indoor antenna is not required if you have an existing UHF rooftop antenna to receive Mediacorp Digital TV channels. You can connect your digital-ready TV or set-top box directly to the wall TV point which links to the rooftop antenna. You could seek the advice of an antenna contractor if you are not sure.

I have a 1TB WD My Passport USB drive connected my DVB-T2 K2 set top box.
I plug this drive to my desktop but it didn't show up i.e. unable to access it.

Is there a way to access it with my PC ?

Thanks.

Update:
I experiment with a usb thumb drive format to FAT32. Cannot format exFAT. Record a 5 min clip on it. Can playback on PC. Must use formating utilities e.g. fat32format.exe.

I try to record a movie shown on channel 8 last Saturday using USB thumb drive on my NSM setup box with the timer function with a start time 2220 and I indicate 2h 50 minutes, it stopped the recording at 2335 why is this so? Could anyone advise how I can record a show for more hours which can span more than 2 and half hrs to 3 hours or more thanks

Got make sure your usb thumb drive got enough space to record that long in the first place?

Hi. Any store or place to buy a set-up box.... prefer to get one immediately rather than online to replace the one that has gone bonkers at home .....
