okey..so SAD..why astro xshow africa nations cup in hd.. sad.gif
many good matches..only on 816..at the same time, ASSP HD got nothing on..i think Astro should try with africa nations cup before world cup to prevent problems during world cup..hope no problems will occur during world cup broadcast..

BTW, I think ESPN get HD feed from SkySports HD so if Sky has the match in HD we will get on the match on ESPN HD..

Usually SkySports has 1 match (845pm Malaysia) and ESPN UK 1 match on Saturday (130am). Sky has 2 matches on Sunday (930pm & 1200am). If got matches on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, all got 1 match..So minimum we get 4matches per week and maximum 7 matches a week. Just my understanding..please inform if i am wrong..

CARLING CUP SEMI FINALS-Man City vs Man Utd 20 January is Live on ASSP 811..Hope get in HD also la.. rolleyes.gif

no one in this region watches NFL... why them yanks call that stuff football is an insult to REAL football..heck...90% of the time hands are used FFS...

Come on Astro... give me some BPL!


Added on January 13, 2010, 8:48 amOK so a friend is awaiting b.yond installation at his residence...

His current setup is such that the old astro cable is built in-wall and installation of a new wire would require hacking...

Am just wondering of the possibilities of using the old cable with the new box and new dish? anyone has experience on this?

Mine currently installed using cable with old cable which was 8 years old and still using ODU 60. Signal at point #1 was 185 ans point # 18 was 218. Get the installer to check the signal quality before decide to change the cable or mot.

It was mention many many time in this thread that the volume control button only for the analogue audio out, e.g the red and white cable. If coaxial out, then you can't control. If you connect to TV via HDMI, then refer to Byond manual to pair your TV so that you can use your Byond remote to control TV volume.

Samething also happened to me. You can programmed your remote to control your tv. Check the manual book.

I read in some forums, you just need RM50 and RM80 to register new astro... biggrin.gif
compare to first batch subscriber that need to pay 1.5k ++ to register in 1996....
my uncle also pay RM899 + RM100 for installation I think in 2000 if i;m not mistaken...
now, his decoder already damaged...

yes... u can use it..
but better buy the real component cable...
i'm just do that for testing my component output whether is was ok or not...
but fortunately, everything fine... does not encounter any problem in my component output like other here arguing about it... notworthy.gif
just feel a bit dissapointed because component does not output HD signal... even 576P signal...

Boleh tu... Just to ensure the connection is correct, e.g red connect to red, blue to blue. The separate cable for component is to transfer the RGB signal idividually to the TV. Of course a better quality component will ensure no signal lost during the analogue signal transfer.

maybe the installer does not know that HDMI also carried audio signal... not just video signal.... tongue.gif
same like my installer, but different cases, he said that if I want to watch SD channels in stretching mode, I need to switch my TV to Av input... and he said that HDMI only can view SD channels in Pillarbox mode... he does not know that they're some setiing ins byond that can automatically stretching SD channels to fill the screen... biggrin.gif

so tell me again, why are people connecting the video feed via component cable?

Do you really think the picture quality is so noticable better or is just a matter of colour brigthness that can be tweaked on the TV itself?

Why go to the hassle of doing this when it mean having to change TV inputs when changing channels? and if you use Dolby it also means having to go into the menu and change the digital audio setting everytime you change inputs too.

The SD signal is compressed to all hell It's like polishing a turd to say that you notice a better PQ on SD by connecting via component and then I bet you also go and stretch the picture too.
