By the way, wat is AEM ha? So will it really work to have 2 tvs seeing 2 different channed via HDMI and composite?

I'm just wondering whether investment on this thing is worth it

AEM ... http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1281679&hl=aem

I bet that Astro will launch ESPN HD this weekend
Someone in V2.0 saw an advertisement in Astro Magazine stating that Arsenal vs Man U will be available in HD
No im not a Man U or Arsenal fan
I expect Astro to keep their word and launch ESPN HD on the last day of January.
They promised this in December so that people would sign up thinking 1st January 2010 ESPN HD available.
But they will have to launch it by 11:59:59pm on 31st January 2010 or they could face massive complaints from Malaysians
Just my opinion

I have seen many, many LNBs covered with things ranging from plastic bags to the bottom of a coke bottle! Those people..
Anyone wanna bet that we will soon see a custom, bigger, 1M Astro dish?

It'd be hilarious if that happen. Polis come serbu because thought it's an illegal C-Band dish, only to find it's for Astro

I completely agree with u
SkySports do produce their own shows in HD so maybe and hopefully Astro will be leasing from it
However, Malaysians fans of EPL , please do not get your hopes so high. Most probably ESPN HD content will be not be the same as u see in normal ESPN. The reason? Not all ESPN programmes are in HD. Yes there will be EPL on ESPN HD but maybe not as much as u wished for. The available EPL HD matches are from SkySports HD and ESPN UK HD. So depends on broadcaster in the UK. Most probably u might get a load of NBA and MLB (Baseball) in HD because ESPN does broadcast them in HD in the US. Someone in V2.0 noted that HD programmes are in different contracts compared to normal programmes. Juz look at ASSP HD right now. Astro are struggling to fill up the programming on HD channel. Not everything on normal ASSP are available in HD such as Carling Cup and WWE Raw.

By the way MCMC is Now HD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! guess what !

Well cover wth coke bottle wan is to avoid rain water interferences... probably if we add the bottle at the KNB, signal will increase further from 100% to 200%

From TallJustin's blog, it is acknowledged that the PQ for SD channels over HDMI is lower, and is noted by Astro. A fix will be issued via a software update soon. So good then.
