Ehh the ad no more dy..

world cup advertisment or the byond advertisement?

HD Ready not necessarily will support 1080p. Some can some cannot. for example, my Sharp LC19A35M cannot support 1080p even though it's HD Ready. Max it can support is 1080i. The pixel count is exactly the same as the Viera TH-P50X10K, only it has smaller 19" screen as opposed to 50" screen. Full HD, on the other hand, guarantees that the TV will support 1080p.

No. For record I can wait for B.Yond DVR function. My problem is my preferred display is a Dell 245WFP screen, which is the biggest in my room and is also conveniently positioned in front of my bed, and I have a SonicGear Enzo 4000 5.1 speaker system, which is analog only. Both are connected to my HTPC. I want to link my Astro to HTPC just to output to the screen. No switches, no wire changing, no fuss. Just want to be able to press MCE button on computer's remote and watch History HD or Nat Geo HD, and then real-time pause when I have to go answer phone. I can do that with SD using composite->RF, but because HD get downsampled to SD on that line picture not so good (I'm trying to be kind here, the picture is next to horrible actually because of interference noise from god-knows-where), especially on 24" display.

Can meh? The Avermedia people tell me that the card cannot support 50Hz signal. Why ah? They tipu me so I won't import card? Baka betul. Already waste money on the Intensity Pro and work on research halfway...

Does it work with Windows Media Center?

According to Avermedia website the card comes with MCE plugin to allow it to work in MCE.

that day i saw someone posting reffering Astro Remote cant control the volume on decoder... but cant find it...

I;m facing this problem now....


I;m using Plasma X10k ... how to setting to enable volume on astro remote...

now need to use tv remote to control the volume....


Regards,




Thank you

32" is enough 4 me as bigger LCD doesn't fit in my cabinet and the wall is full with wires.... thanx 4 da wishes anyway...

press the volume up + ok button until the led blink 2 times. Then, you will be able to control the tv vol.
But before this, please make sure you have configured the astro remote to be able to on / off your plasma tv.
Refer to the manual on how to configure to use the astro remote to control tv.

Thanks bro...
for controlling on/off tv its done..
but to control volume for astro decoder no respond.

Thanks for advise... regards.

please check back dated thread regarding this la bro..

When this thread reach 100 pages, close this thread and move to v3...

to all sifu, my question is simple, is it worth to get astro beyond now or wait until there is more HD contents made available by astro? i am using 42 full HD LCD now...

Do you have subscription to either Movie, Learning or Sports package? No point getting now if you don't have subscription to any of the said packages, since you won't get HD channels anyway (all HD channels require subscription to the corresponding SD packages, the RM30/month is a "HD enabler" price). Otoh, if you have either one of the packages particularly the Learning package, get it now, don't wait. Nat Geo HD and History HD is absolutely breathtaking.

Heck, even if you don't have any of the packages mentioned above, just add in Learning package and go for beyond. It's very worth it.

just simple information.. good enuff...

as far as i can see it cannot work coz the connection i am using is displayport because i am using 3008wfp which support hdcp in displayport, there's no displayport or for that matter HDMI connection in MCE..not sure about the plugin ramchyld mentioned..will check it out tonight.but i can definately watch HD channel using the card , but for 1080i kinda of lagging i noticed, so i set to 720p

Update: just checked the website there is MCE plugin but for vista, not sure will work on my windows 7 64bit , will try tonight.
