a decoder recording ability is limited by its ability to tune not its processor. hopefully won't malfunction.

Thanks ecam for a peep into the future smile.gif Just don't understand why they do not put HDMI port in there. Almost all new flatscreen TV's have HDMI port. So this Astro Plus is outdated already even before it's out in the market rclxub.gif

i think they try to cut cost and keep the box simple. after all, the transmission itself is in analog and thus eliminate the need to convert to digital. and there's not much different between hdmi and component (hotly contested and discussed. some may not agree).

Just keep in mind that analog might be better in term of reliability.

Decision not to use hdmi doesn't mean the box is outdated. all new flat screen have component input too. oh and component input is different form the usual yellow red white composite output in case you don't know.

I believe Astro is using DVB-S which is digital (using MPEG2) from day one, right? It's only the Astro decoder STB that to converts analog video out all this while. However I am not sure how much higher cost to have outputs of composite+S-Video+HDMI rather than composite+S-Video+ComponentHD. I still feel that it should be better to have HDMI since it's already widely available in the market.
