to all sifu...
my current astro is parellel setup which mean the decoder is at living hall and i can watch astro channel at my bedroom. Installer just called my up and i raise this concern to him and told by him that this cannot be done on astro beyond.

Called up astro cust service, confirm with them no solution at all.

So you are saying... if the decoder is tuned to one channel, upstairs will also be the same channel? if yes maybe u can buy the component cable or composite cable and plug to ure upstairs tv and use the hdmi downstairs

Current astro decoder can be done but not the astro beyond setup box. According to astro cust service, the new setup box only 1 to 1.

rf modulator would be a possible easy route, only need a single rg6 coaxial cable to carry both video and audio signal to remote TV, other method is wireless av sender, no wire involved

there is already a thread discussing this topic, go over there and have a look around
