I guess it should be treated as 2 individual accounts.
Unless it is the 50% second decoder. If change the principal decoder, I think need to change the supplement account as well since they share the same dish.

how about got usb port for harddisk connection behind the decoder..
can it play mkv file.if can definitely i will take this decoder

I very doubt so. Even if it is capable of doing so, Astro would not allow the decoder to become a video player.

but what for the port behind there..as long as we pay astro still manage to get income right

it's for the future function... maybe PVR... that usb port will be use to connect external HDD to record astro programme...

can some kind soul who has this installed please post a picture of the back of the decoder pls. thank you.

Just refer to this blog la. Got pictures of the unit.

I can wait anymore lo he3
world cup 2010 in HD

By looking at the back of the unit, found 12V DC input instead of 240V input. Meaning external power adapter needed ??

probably a power brick..laptop style..

Of course la. Cannot plug in 240v directly to a 12v device. Kaboom!!

I just hope the adapter is not as big as Xbox 360's power brick.

please astro...mkv file..so i dont need to buy wdtv

har? asking astro to provide MKV???

but in total there is 2 usb ports...front and back... so many lol

is this worth it? 20/month extra for 5 channels?

It it worth is u subscribe to all 5 channel, HBO, Discovery, History, and Sport package....and since non of us have a hand on astro hd, for the time being I will say yes, it worth it beside 1 year contract...

if can read mkv files from hdisk sure worth to pay rm20

yup..like that...like playing ps3 console..hehe

erm, abt the hd channel, surely the picture superb as it is 1080i(surely not 1080p)..
2 hdmi port, 1 composite output, 1 component output, 1internet cable output and 1 smartcard slot.

about 4:3 and 16:9....there are setting to strecth the 4:3 output to fit the tv....

erm, wut else....for me, worth to pay extra rm20....for me la...

if you have to ask, the answer is no.

kapultek: dream on, RM20 mkv HD player.... yeah right....

I have checked, for existing apartment/condo/high rise building that shares the dish (meaning you dont have individual dish sticking out yr balcony), there will be a wait of 18-24 months for them to change the dish/cable/infrastructure.

However, if you building has plenty of requests, they could escalate in installation process, but as for now, they are mainly catering to existing subscribers with their own dish units only.
