Keep launching new ENGLISH hd channels...
when comes to tvb programme?
*
as what their ceo or representative(i forget who is him) talk on newspaper,
tvb copyright fee are very expensive,
i think if we really want to watch tvb hd show,
have to pay even higher subscription fee than astro on demand..

so is it RM20 per month for HD no matter how many HD channel u want?
*
RM20 is for HD service or b.yond decoder monthly fee,
the hd channel u can get is based on the package u subscribe,
if u do not get documentary, sports and movie package,
u will no get any HD channel to watch,
unless they launch a HD channel that same as ur current subscription package.

they can just upgrade to HD...no need extra

i just share my opinion,
as i know the drama we watch on astro on demand,
all are HD..

i also hope astro will provide chinese hd channel as soon..

ya,
we have to pay RM38.95(or less) to watch sd astro on demand,
and this is a good chance for them to get extra money from us..

i am watching my Astro B.yond now, the picture quality have been enhanced, the only problem is the sound became very low, normally i can open my tv volume around 20, but now even 30 are still no clear... is it i must use an home theater system to get the higher volume? my sound setting is stereo audio/digital, not 5.1, why?

now even i watch on xing he channel, the quality is better too, really no bad!

This new dish also feeds the many SD channels right? Those who already installed it, you can also watch the other SD channels as usual right?

If yes, then I hope the normal decoders should be able to use it as well, only without the 5 HD channels. This is important because if my condo upgrades the dish it won't affect the normal subscribers. And if the existing cable can be used, then my condo management only have to change the dish, that should not be too much trouble, I think.
*
of cause we still can watch SD channel,
and the quality is much better than before(compare to composite output i use before yesterday).

The sound level of Astro has dropped prior to HD launch. The moment they upgraded thier sound system. Now I have to raise my  tv volume to 30 to get a reasonable level compared to 20 last time. I wonder how come many of my friends too never noticed it.Thank god u noticed. The SD Astro is stiil the same no major enhancement to boast about as what Astro seems to claim. yawn.gif
*
my parent and brother complaint it,
they said better watch with previous decoder,
but the picture quality is really nice.

even watching NTV7 by B.yond decoder,
the quality is much better than before,
maybe this is because last time i am using composite cable to watch astro on my lcd tv only..
