QUOTE(Qash-M @ Jan 27 2010, 03:03 PM) For now, SD channel in B.yond looks better on component video than using HDMI, is it? Not on mine, if i pass through using the component cable, it has a special wave effects.  |

QUOTE(dsubra @ Jan 29 2010, 12:42 AM) Wow, Serena & Henin; Murray & Federer? in HD, Great. Serena & Henin are probably not the best choice for the HD debut ...   Where are the Maria-s or the Anna-s?  |

QUOTE(rattan @ Jan 29 2010, 12:32 PM) Installer just came and installed B.yond a few hours ago in my house. After installing took almost 1 hour to activate the smart card. Really impressed with the HD channel quality. Alot of difference, picture quality improved by more then 50%, sound is also much better. U shud have seen its imediate predecessor then, the only-its-mother-could-love Thomson. Honestly, the reason why I hurried installing Byond was also to get rid of the rubbish remote control Only thing that i find really funny is the decoder. I find it really ugly and not even a little bit of concept was put to it. Anyway its just a comment. Will upload the decoder picture. |

Added on January 29, 2010, 12:47 pm I reprogrammed my Marantz remote to use Byong cause the astro byond remote is one very FUGLY remote...   Back to the the old Thomson remote, it doesnt register half the time and always hang. Have to go to the decoder and press manually, remote my @rse  |

QUOTE(Bishop @ Jan 30 2010, 02:26 PM) Anyone notice that when watching in HD the bass a very boomy? My sub going crazy when watching in HD. Maybe the Dolby Digital issue? Dunno about bass but they still havent equalise the volumes between SD snd HD channels after a month. Wonder will they ever do that? |

QUOTE(Bishop @ Jan 30 2010, 03:04 PM) My AVR displays ( M-Norm +4 ) when switched to HD/Dolby. I suspect it is the Dolby issue. Try switching to stereo output on the decoder and compare? |

Has the lead time from request till installation improved drastically? Judging from the significant drop in rants, can I assume Astro has managed to clear Byond's back-logs?
