Rescan kayo channels every few weeks. Nagaadjust kasi ibang stations. Yung GMA ko bumalik after scanning.

[thor]

Dinala ko yung box sa Laguna near Quezon ok yung reception... I was able to get 13 channels. Pag dating dito sa Muntinlupa Soldiers Hills, naka scan ng 23 channels pero walang lumalabas na broadcast. Parehong yung supplied Antena lang ang gamit ko. Nakaka apekto ba ba yung wi-fi router sa signal?

[jaime4i]

bought 1 unit from digibox.
Na try ko dito sa Bago Aplaya, Davao City, di pa digital ready ang davao walang signal.

[Quitacet]

@Quitacet

saan may ganyang reception? tindi ah! 

Magallanes yata yan. Inilabas daw nya yung indoor antenna, inilagay sa tubo para mataas. sagap lahat e

[caloyski14]

I just sent a PM to Digibox. Hopefully makakuha din ako ng mahiwagang black box!

Napansin ko pag nagscan may bilang kung ilang tv channel at kung ilang radio ang nakuha. Pwede ba to for fm, pano kaya isetup?

[jeff29jeff2002]

After a few weeks of using baron antenna...I tried using its original antenna na nakalabas lang.. improved the strength and quality of abscbn channels and other channels. Just noticed that at strength of 37% and quality of 99% using the original antenna, lalong gumanda ang abscbn channel...I could not ask form more...very clear pictures..very alive color...picture perfect..really worth a try...lets go DIGITAL... Sana may FM din...

For those who are enjoying their digital tv, what are the aspect ratio of those channels?

[rastaman81]

mga bossings, may naka try na po ba doon sa Cebu? kasi if available bibili sana ako para kay erpats at ermats. tnx

[redram]

sir yung aspect ratio will depend on what kind of TV you are using it with.

if wide screen (common for current LED flat panels)- use 16:9 or letterbox
if normal screen (common for CRTV) - use 4:3 or standard

am not certain, pero i recall parang may option yata siya for combo or mix. you can also use this.

best way is go to teleradyo DZMM channel. make adjustments from there. make sure the bottom ticker news line and sides are not cropped. then you'll know the best aspect ratio for your viewing.

+1
I hope they start to broadcast 16:9 NATIVE aspect ratio especially for movies.

I was asking how the different networks transmitted their programs. On what tv aspect ratio. . On my Cignal, only Net25 had the 16x9 aspect ratio. Abs cbn, gma and others had it on 4x3 but with black bars on top and bottom..

Back read some pages sir...I have read that meron daw nasasagap in Mandaue..Maliit lang ang Cebu kaya I think covered na buong Metro if meron sa Mandaue. But only abs-cbn this time...

[zonks]

want to get one again. pls reserve

[xgh0st12x]

The thread starter has a separate for sale thread for the digibox.npls place your reservation there. This is the discussion thread.

Sana bumaba pa konti pricing ng local supplier because of this new..Some tv manufacturer are puting isdb-t in their unit built in.

Devant: Ready for ISDB-T
Devant LEDTech LCD TV is the first in the Philippines to launch a digital TV that is already equipped with a built-in ISDB-T receiver.

 ISDB-T (Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting - Terrestrial) is the Japanese Digital TV Standard that the Philippines has chosen for the country’s digital terrestrial broadcast of which all analog TV broadcasting will be converted to and replaced by digital broadcast. With Devant LEDTech LCD TVs, you can enjoy the finest high-tech viewing experience and with its built-in receiver, you can now instantly receive digital broadcasts from local tv networks without any set-top or converter boxes.

The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) of the Philippines  has  mandated  that  all local tv stations must switch  off  their analog broadcast system by Dec 31, 2015  and  switch to digital broadcast in time for the complete shift to ISDB-T standards.

[DViant]

pyth the ISDB-T implementation of any local TV brand is incomplete daw. Best to wait for the NTC's implementing rules and regulations (IRR) before making a purchase. Worst what could happen is buying a TV with the basic ISDB-T tuner receive then having to buy a separate NTC-compliant ISDB-T tuner receiver.

Important years to remember

2007 - If you bought your TV on this year or earlier then you should really buy a replacement TV. Average upgrade cycle for TVs spans at most every 8 years.

2016 - To be more precise, late 2015 is when 4K Blu-ray discs and players will become available for sale making 4K TV sensible for home entertainment outside of connecting the the TV to a computer as a source.

2016 - Is the year the Philippines will start DTT broadcast in ernest.

Saan po pwedeng maka-avail nito? Paki-PM naman sir. Thanks

Now i know what happens to the simcards removed from digiboxes being sold by sellers?

[xgh0st12x]

Some of us really dont want the sim cards anyway.
Im okay with folks reselling the sim cards, so long as the price is right.

I agree. I think my sim cards are about to expire. lol!

[baby_wilmar]

actually a lot of folks already know na 700 lang ito sa mga promodizers ng abs cbn sa mga selected areas. Matagal nang balita ito sa mga ibang message boards.

I guess the reason why most folks here were willing to pay double was for convenience sake. Alangan namang tumambay kami dun sa mga areas na ino offer itong black box kung di kami taga doon. Lol!

At 1500 pesos, delivered to my doorstep and with what ive saved sa gasolina, effort at oras... Di na ako manghihinayang dun.

Sure, double the price is a bit iffy, imho...
Pero ano magagawa natin. Where there is an opportunity in the Philippines, there will always be typical pinoy capitalists. Kultura na yan.

sir saan po ba availabale, interesado po ako.
