Wahh.. a lot of candidates. But I think astro will to produce their unique pace model just like current byond box.

when will it arrive? here already?

Yes.. maybe.... i want the size of the pvr is cute and beautiful in design

ROFLMAO!!

mmmmm check out this:

hd channels are growing indeed =D

That explain someone earlier see 8 HD channel CM too.

when will boastcast??

Tivo customers pay US$13 a month; if you buy the lifetime product warranty (Tivo + service) which averages US$7 month.

I don't think this is going to happen, or at the very least, it will come at a cost to functionality - say for the free service, you can't do advance programming.

For RM10, Astro had better nail this PVR service right out of the park. Tivo had set the standard so we better get Tivo-quality service from the start. Things like programming via internet [ALL], built-in WiFi for the B.yond PVR, an e-SATA port at the back for HDD extension, fast search function [ALL], PVR-to-PC file transfer (copy) [ALL], and PC playback of recorded content [ALL].

Personally I think Astro should let everybody connect whatever external HDD they want so long as it has enough space. If they are asking B.yond subscribers to go the WD AV HDD route, they better ensure that those drives work flawlessly.


But dxjb is right. Everyone calm down. I know it's hard to with the recording functionality and news of more channels but be calm. We'll know for sure tomorrow.

any update in the pipeline for all the new HD channels and PVR function?

any sifu correct me if im wrong
but eventhough the number of HD channels is growing, it doesnt mean it will be on astro rite?

Depend on "certain time in future".

Hi everyone ,

I was wondering whether the Astro Byond can be use with the Dell U2311h monitor ? The U2311h doesn't have a HDMI port. However, according to Dell website it does support HDCP via the DVI port as well as 1080i resolution. Here is the docs on Dell US website. Dell U2311h

So, if I use a HDMI to DVI adapter from the Astro Byond decoder to the monitor it should work right ? Thanks for any help

this experiment will cost you how much, exactly?

WOW!!! MORE HD Channels... well Im pretty excited over the "Rumors"

but.. it is ASTRO... never trust them 100%

but they should actually add more HD channels.. cos they do have a target I think... 10 channel before end of the year rite??

so 3-4 HD channels wont hurt... actually give them some more time to actually finalize the remaining HD channel.. or finalizing a local HD channel... who knows...

lets just hope and pray that everything will go as the way we want it...

hi all,
I think, option # 1 would be the best candidate for the next astro' PVR..haha

Cheers!

The advert on Star HD is NOT Astro's,its STAR's Teasers I think , I saw FOX is coming prior to our HD launch, its a teaser actually which missed the cut ! This COULD be one of those slipped off !

Yes, it should work.

i saw the ad too. 5 channels: fox hd, fox crime hd, star wld hd, star movies hd and fx hd. but at the end of the ad, it mentioned sumtin about fox internationals network, so, it may relate to star, not astro
if it is slipped off, im sure it was sumtin intended
