Hi, Talked to a friend yesterday, who just had it installed in his home. It seems they have a lot of MultiChoice (South Africa) channels including MM1, MM2 and 5 SuperSport channels.

monty Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 They seem to be the same group doing Supernet as well! It's getting a bit confusing, since BTV started all that internet thingy, then it split off to be called supernet, and now BTV themselves are doing internet again!

Greg If one of the 5 supersport channels is the one that carries the EPL then this is a great deal and I would drop my UBC (True) garbage. If someone has more info on this service please post.

doctormann Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 There is a new Cable TV : ~T M N~; the "DarkSide" office is located on the previous BTV( Banglamung Cable TV) office between Sutawad Temple (Soi Nernplubwaan )and the Elephant Village.They advertise 80 channels 24h a day for 300 Thb + VAT(Month rate) Anyone any experience already ? Hi Guys I just want to resurrect the thread on TMN cable TV as I would like to know if it's worth changing from my current cable company, BTV. TMN has been up and running since about July '08 so we should have some opinions on the professionalism and reliability of the service by now. I would appreciate some feedback from anyone who is subscribing to this cable service. Banglamung Cable (BTV) seems to be plumbing new depths of awfulness at the moment. Their home-grown English channel has been 'tarted up' and the screen layout now has all manner of cr*p displayed with the useful content appearing in a 'letter box'. OK, the ticker-tape news is useful but rapidly becomes irritating as, naturally, it can't be turned off. Just lately, they have been tinkering with the channel allocations. We have lost Nickelodeon but I thought that things might have improved when we got both Mnet 1 & 2 movie channels. Not so however as the extra Mnet channel suddenly started to show F1 motorsport - already on 2 other channels - and has now transmogrified into a Spanish channel, which is OK if you're Spanish! And what's with the interminable advertising - I know that this is where BTV's income comes from but it's so badly done. Every time there's a gap in the schedule - what schedule? - they fill it with an endless loop of ads. Always the same ones - aaarrrggghhh! The quality of the picture and sound leaves much to be desired as well - often the sound is totally absent. Does anyone at BTV actually ever monitor what's going down the cable? Doesn't seem like it! So, these are my main gripes with BTV. Is TMN any better than this? Seems unlikely that it would be worse but I suppose it's possible. Comments from TMN subsribers would be appreciated. Thanks, DM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hssl Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 So i've had TMN for 3 months now - TMN sound / picture quailty is great the best i've seen for a cable network in Pattaya, the odd 'no signal' from Mnet movies / supersport 1/2/3 but this is a sat problem same as you'd get from UBC in a storm. 300THB a month i'm happy.

Phil Conners Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) What channels do TMN have? Do they have a website? Edit: yes they do: http://www.tmncabletv.com Channel listing: http://www.tmncabletv.com/%E0%B8%95%E0%B8%...B8%AD%E0%B8%87/ (thai only, unfortunately) Edited January 1, 2009 by Phil Conners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LennyW Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Slightly off topic, but does anybody have a free to air reciever and an omnidirectional / auto dish setup here in Pattaya?? If you do how good / reliable is it?? We had one in the UK initally for the wifes Thai channels, and it was superb!! over 5000 channels (including most of the ones i paid for on Sky too!!) more or less instantly downloaded, the limit on channels only governed by the capacity of the reciever box. At the time the whole setup cost 99 pounds. There was a mag in UK called "which sattelite" had all the boxes / dishes / tips / ranges etc, anything similar here?? Any experiences?????

reggiemucker Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Hey I have cable here in Hatyai; Generally it's crap. but I want to find out what the MM1 schedule will be. Anyone know a website to get this Info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsfangr Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 When, if ever, are the Thais going to learn how to do business?! Who has most of the money here on the east side of Pattaya? Is it the Thai community; or the farang community? This company has set up in an area that has a rapidly increasing population of expats; nearly all of whom are seeking improved access to farang programming. Yet the company's website is virtually impossible for English speaking potential customers to understand. Will the Thais EVER learn how to do business?

DickFarang Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 We live on the Dark Side and one and a half year ago we changed from Sophon to TMN. They arrived less than two hours after my wife called, we have 92 channels (better quality than Sophon) and they charge THB 1,800 per half year. Apart from the already mentioned channels, we have: 64 – Pattaya People 67 – Germany (in German and in English) 69 – Japan (in English) 75 – Sweden 83 – Spain 86 – France 87 – Italy 88 – The Netherlands and Belgium (in Dutch) The leaflet with the channels is in Thai only and so is their website: http://www.tmncabletv.com/index1.php?p=channel.php I downloaded the table with the channels and changed it to black and white.

trisailer Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 We connected up to TMN about a month ago. Sophon is not a choice for our area in east pattaya. The picture quality is pretty good, actually a little better than True, but the english content is limited compared to True. No CNN, it has Fox. Seems like an ok value.
