Which SD channels giving the BEST quality?
Added on January 26, 2010, 3:44 pmQUOTE(marky @ Jan 26 2010, 11:34 AM) mine show DD also but if i actually go to the rear speaker no sound 1 >< can you try? ASSP HD's surround no sound one unless the HBO promo comes out, then only u are 'surrounded' or the nice Byond commercial. For Byond commercial, you can hear the leopard roaring only on HD while on SD, i couldn't hear anything or barely. History HD also no surround but NATGEO HD do carry the surround, and i have to turn down my sub woofer's gain. But my AVR do have DD sign when i tuned to HD channels.

QUOTE(azrin_kiko @ Jan 26 2010, 11:09 PM) Quick question: Does covering the LNB with standard hypermarket plastic bag/plastic candy box can minimize rain fade/increase signal? Aesthetically, the Astro Dish with LNB covered with plastic is so bad.... What are you talkin about? 
Added on January 27, 2010, 8:54 amQUOTE(dxjb @ Jan 27 2010, 02:48 AM) 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. Love NBA & MBL. This post has been edited by JOR23N: Jan 27 2010, 08:54 AM |

QUOTE(eddycmc @ Jan 30 2010, 01:48 PM) Bro,
Any diffrence for the cable??
If use back the existing one, still can get the HD ??
No pobom! 1.Ask the installer to check the signal for you 2.If yur cable is concealed, then use back the existing 3.If is not, change it if the signals is no good. Signal strength should be around 225. This post has been edited by JOR23N: Jan 30 2010, 01:56 PM |

QUOTE(neb @ Feb 1 2010, 02:34 PM) the only difference between old and new is the dish size, increases from 60cm to 65cm, both are using exactly the same LNB, so you figure out the logical answer  Even the old LNB got different batches hoh?! |

QUOTE(willkso @ Feb 1 2010, 07:57 PM) mine was old cable + ODU 60 before they change to ODU 65 for me. HD was superb. No problem!
Added on February 1, 2010, 7:59 pmmine didn't change the lnb the other day but can receive HD. Old ODU 60 + old cable and old LNB I bet your LNB must be 2003/04 onwards. Anyone using LNB ealier than 2003 ? Still can work? |

Maybe Premium channels have higher chances appearing in HD.

The volume difference between SD & HD channels is OK for me!
Maybe Astro have done something on it!
