If astro is your cup of tea, go for the plasma. LCDs tend to have boxier figures for astro compared to Plasma's.

AV receiver from denon, yamaha, onkyo.... can de-interlace+upscale analog video signal up to 1080p, some higher end AVR can also upscale digital video signal

er ... just to share .. no matter how good yr upscaler is ... if the source is bad ... the picture will be bad.

if there is any consolation, astro does go fullHD once every month .... take a look at the astro's statement sent to yr home ... it is printed and presented to you in fullHD glory ...

Sauce bro? Pics or GTFO!!

Edit: hehe, juz kiddin, dun be angry k..

anyways, we all know that other countries already adopting HD, but what resolution is it? 720p or 1080i? Most likely Astro will adopt 720p right?

in USA for example, Animal Planet HD is broadcasted in 1080i

knock yourself out, check this link for a list of USA's HD trasmission:

i think their statement stil in 720p, printed on normal paper with low quality ink and bad cutting. haha

I was informed that Astro already launch the new decoder with componet out instead of S-video.

For those who wants it... the trick is..

Cancel current subsciption and re-subscribe to get a new decoder.


By now Astro realized that many LCD/Plasma dont come with S-video anymore. Also the AVR is abondoning s-video too. So... is time to change.


But I think Astro will use the HD and Word Cup next year to boost sales. This component output just a stepping stone to resolve the problem of no S-video in many new LCD/Plasma TV.

So,...... I think it will happen next year. And Sales will be good. Start buying it stock... ha ha ha ha

Word Cup?

"Ronaldo types, but Rooney types faster"

Solli hah... wah spelling long alleady... soli soli..

I wonder how much is the different in term PQ comparing S-Video and Component cable.

The latest decoder I received yesterday has composite, S-video as well as component video out, and LR-audio, optical audio out as well as USB port in front. This decoder was just launched very recently replacing the component-out-no-s-video decoders.
