All of MediaCorp's seven free-to-air channels will go fully digital by December 2013. Channel 5, Channel 8, Suria and Vasantham will be transmitted in HD by then, while the remaining three (Channel NewsAsia, Okto and Channel U) will be in HD by 2016. The move marks another milestone in Singapore's roadmap in making the digital switchover, where analogue signals will be completely switched off by 2020. To enjoy digital TV, the Media Development Authority said no action is required from those who currently subscribe to pay-TV with StarHub or SingTel, as they already receive the channels digitally. Those without pay-TV can continue using their current TV sets but they will need to purchase an antenna and a DVB-T2 digital receiver. However there is no need to rush for the receivers now, as they are likely to be made available in Singapore only from March or April 2013. To reap the full benefits of digital TV and the high definition channels that will be transmitted, viewers may want to opt for a new digital HDTV set. MDA said even when the free-to-air channels are transmitted digitally at the end of 2013, analogue transmissions will continue. The simulcast period is to give ample time for viewers to make the necessary adjustments to embrace digital TV. MDA said it will be working closely with MediaCorp, major manufacturers and electronics stores on an educational campaign to help consumers prepare for the digital switchover. MediaCorp said: "As the planned switchover to digital broadcasting is scheduled to complete only by December 2013, we will make an announcement when more details become available towards the second half of next year." http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/sin...1208529/1/.html

Hi all I have got a 2 din head unit from China and it has DVB-T built in. However, I am unable to get any channels after scanning. What am I missing? What is the frequency that I need to scan to? What is the Start and End Frequency? What is the Bandwidth to use (6M, 7M or 8M)? The Hardware version is DVR-TV1.1, Software Version is Sunplus_Box_TV1.20, F/W version 432_032_136_1023_290, Checksum 213794f2, Build date: 23/11/09. Any advise? Thank you.

What a crab for soccer fans over here. Next season EPL and European - 'Champion League' will be telecast over at 2 different service providers ....... :angry: :angry: StarHub (SH) for EPL and SingTel (ST) MIO TV for Champion League. Furthermore, prices for subscription to EPL at SH will also be increased for next season. Was comtemplating whether to subscribe for another provider (MIO TV) or cancel current one (SH) and rely on newspaper if they going to increase the price too much...... Another alternative is watching from my house coffee shop downstair over a cup of 'Teh-si' provided they continue to subscribe to cablevision for next season.......

anyone know which live streaming sites e.g. SOP has taiwanese TV channels live streaming? thanks...
