QUOTE(leecwai @ Dec 11 2009, 03:27 PM) I just called Astro to enquire about Astro B.yond. Looks like for other channel without HD will be in aspect ratio of 4:3, so other than the listed channel with HD, you will still see "fat" people. But the Astro facebook mentioned that all will be in 16:9. Does that mean 4:3 broadcast will have custom black bars for fitting 16:9 TV? |

QUOTE(ahhazazi @ Dec 12 2009, 07:46 PM) Got one question, just now tried the b.yond at astro center and realize the PQ was good for HD but when i change to SD channel it seems that the aspect ratio was wrong. Got two black bars left and right. Tried to change the aspect ratio using astro remote but its not working. Do we have to live with these 2 black bars?? Well, if TV broadcast doesn't aired by proper 16:9 instead of letterbox 4:3, it'll be good enough..

Does it matter when switching signal like from Ku-band to C-Band?

AXN HD is only available in Portogal only through Measat 3a. Wonder when it will be available on astro b.yond?
BTW, did AXN Beyond launch on ch 809? This post has been edited by Qash-M: Dec 23 2009, 05:35 PM |
