for ur 1st issue - my signal is only about 190 but no problem so far.

2nd - i kena the same, it goes to channel 1.

Buy a Logitech Harmony universal remote.

controls everything - byond, tv, amplifier, cd player, VCR, media player too.

How did you get that signal strength? I'm only able to get 217, which satellite transponder are you using?

I have been getting 255 signal strength the day i install my byond until now, whatever transponder i set is also 255.

Actually my area of reception is very good, before that, the old decorder i am  getting around 93-95 also, about 5-7 marks to maximum of 100. Even the installer dont believe until i show him my signal strength.

+100000

This is what we deserved to get.

I hope so too... TM should reconsider and sell IPTV also to Streamyx 4MB subscribers as well. If DETV can work beautifully at 1MB/s, TM's should too. H264 and AAC makes it possible to squeeze D1 SDTV at good frame rate over 1MB/s. And at 4MB/s, one can transmit 1080i signal using H264 with basic stereo AAC audio.
I filed a request for that channel. CS told me never after pulling me on the line for two months, but now others say that the CS know nothing and was talking out of her ass. Irregardless, I'm fed up. I want to see Kari Byron in HD damnit!
Probably no. Unless the 3D image signal is encoded in the MPEG4 stream in Astro's feed and Astro relay the signal without altering it.
No need Full HD. Just make sure it can handle 1080i (which is part of HD-Ready spec) and have HDMI that is HDCP-compliant. Full HD means 1080p, which is not available over transmission anywhere (except maybe Japan) at the moment. So far over here Full HD is only output by BD player, PC, xBox360, PS3 and media player boxes and extenders.

something weird just happened
I was watching disney channel
Suddenly around 1205 am the channel sdudenly was changed to one of Astro in-house Indian channel
The number on the the decoder was still ch615
I changed to another channel then again keyed in 615
It says disney bur the programme was still the Indian channel one
Then  i chnage again to another channel
5 minutes later i keyed in 615
Channel not available..!
What the heck..?
I checked the EPG TV Guide..and 615 was not in the list
I went into my room to get my phone to call Astro
Came back out..key in 615, suddenly back to normal..disney again..
I know Hong Kong are getting new disney channel
Thought astro were dropping the channel
If they drop it then I would have dropped the cartoon package straight away..
Disney and cartoon network are the only reason I give the kids the channel..

Weird Astro..someone playing around on a sunday night ar?
Dont drop channels..u should add them..

where was this? Never read it in newspapers here..
the problem i had was not my fault..
i typed 615..the EPG said it was Disney but the content was the Indian in-house channel
As if Astro were playing around having fun putting Indian channel content in kids channel Disney
Then a few minutes later i check the channel was gone..like never existed
I think the clown at Astro had enough of the fun and was rebooting whatever they were messing around with
Another 2 minutes and normal again
I think they were having a laugh for fun
Luckily it was not Porno..

hi, im new here, just want to ask a few questions, i would like to say sorry if it has been asked.. coz im lazy to search since there are 3 versions already...

im thinking of subscribe this Astro beyond after i bought a new tv.... i wanted to buy a plasma tv, but the salesman said if i want to subscribe the new astro, LCD would be better,the picture looks nicer, since the signal is compatible/better for the LCD TV... if i use back the old astro, then PLASMA TV is ok, but not for new astro/ astro beyond... is it real?

any panasonic plasma user with astro beyond here? would like to have some advices...
thanks...
