So far only Bamba TV Channels have the best decoding quality ever even though still not upto 720p HD.. the rest especially signet are of poor quality just like playing a Phone's 3gp Video using a 40" Screen Making money never gets boring

If you have a digital TV (digital thingie is inbuilt) you are able to receive BAMBA channels but I think its on test basis.Question is,will I still have to buy their BAMBA decoder even when my TV is digital?? Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

Do a recording of any Signet/STV channels with its best recording settings then with your Pc check MPC detail properties of the recorded material(TS format) check the Bit rate, Size(Width,Height), Display aspect ratio, Frame rate mode and Frame rate before you talk abt clarity. by the way let me correct you.. Digital cable technology can allow many TV channels to occupy the frequency space that would normally be occupied by a single analog cable TV channel that means sayare and all other signet labeled channels are all under one frequency space with same decoding quality.. Clarity begins with the content before it gets decoded with a HDMI enabled receiver and even if u get 100% signal quality but the content isnt HD then no HD in the long run. ask yourself why DSTV has separate HD channels Making money never gets boring

Does this mean that anyone can receive their channels with any DVBT2 decoder? They tried to bury us, they didn't know we were seeds.

Thanks @D32 for the list. Does one get the other local channels like KTN, NTV, etc? They do not appear on the list... Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee. - Muhammad Ali🐝

Yaani wazuans are still operating analogue TVs that need decoders? Digital TVs that dont need decoders have been in the market for some time.

Besides, a stand-alone separate STB offers greater flexibility. Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
