QUOTE(auronthas @ Jan 5 2010, 03:40 PM) How long does it take to activate from installation completed? Mine completed around 1.50pm I called Astro CS a hour ago , smart card activation is in process, need to wait within 24 hours. WTH ! around 5 min after he press the key on his handphone.. then its activated and can watch the HD already! anyway what wonder me in your case..didnt in the installation form show that the installer MUST demo a bit on the TV This post has been edited by amirsubhi: Jan 5 2010, 04:57 PM

QUOTE(azrin_kiko @ Jan 6 2010, 10:09 AM) I heard that if you watch HD channel while the other decoder is on. The old decoder will not display any picx and sounds like when raining because HD transmission is in high frequency then the SD one,,, But it works again if b.yond is tuning to sd channels Source B.yond v1.0 posts unless u get the 2 point at the LNB...those Dual LNB as for my situation..Old Astro and New Beyond using the Same dish..but connected to different point at the Dual point LNB

Yerp.Byond remote can be configured to control on/off TV, mute and Vol +/-
Just follow instruction on page 16 in Byond manual.. or press ok and byond on/off power..key in 4 digit key for your brand..and try wether its work..if not..proceed to 2nd 4 digit key
Anyway i'm very sure that they are people who didnt bother to read the manual to know that they can actually programmed the remote
anyway apexg..should we do some FAQ or tip&tricks for Astro Byond at first page?

QUOTE(shahzad86 @ Jan 8 2010, 12:12 AM) i'm using hdmi cable connect to my tv, i tried the method above just like in the manual many times, the light blinks twice but still no volume control. I'll probably try again tomorrow, hope it would work then after updating, kinda tedious to control 2 remotes at a time thank you all for your advice and feedback  can u turn off the tv? have u try use the 9-9-1 method?

QUOTE(low98944 @ Jan 19 2010, 05:23 PM) Just change the ODU from 60 to 65. Strange signal drop from 225 @ #1 for ODU60 to 217 @ #1 for ODU65. Whereas at #18, ODU60 is 255 whereas ODU65 is 241 to 247.  maybe its due to the installer doesnt allign the dish as good as old dish
