I think Dark Knight was great on HBO HD Asia... Kung Fu Panda Also Great... there are many great movies in HD but Im not denying the fact that there are so many movies that has been upscale from SD to HD... heh...

but its not HBO/Astro 's Fault as the movie wasn't shot on HD.. biggrin.gif

Bee Movies also looked very GOOD on HBO HD! icon_rolleyes.gif

I think TVB series are shot in HD, a lot to learn from hong kong film maker/broadcaster, astro learn fast fast and gives us improved SD channels quality

yes... TVB series are shot in HD..
but not all.. only certain series....
other series if i'm not mistaken, just upscale one.. but aspect ratio is in 16:9...

then lets buy a china decorder and use it wif astro dish and position our dish at tat location

is the above workable????
*
FYI, for Indovision, u need to use special dish and LNB...
Indovision used S-Band.. not Ku-Band like Astro....
also you also need to use decoder that support S-band and make sure it can open up VIDEOGUARD encryption...
Indovision used Videoguard...
or maybe u can subscribe and use ur friends/family name in Indonesia, and bring back all the equipment like LNB, Dish, Decoder, remote and most important is SMARTCARD to Malaysia...

go to their website http://www.indovision.tv/

or ask AjkR06 who got working set already drool.gif

aiyooo...
i don't have the any indovision equipment...
all the pictures of the equipment i taken from "mr google" la... tongue.gif

and just wanna inform, i read somewhere, Indovision signal was so sensitive...
if u have WiFi router, cell phone that have HSDPA and the most worst is, when the motorcycle, car moving outside your house also, they will be a bit signal interference...
because they use S-band Signal.... so now, where u prefer, no picture on rainy day (like astro).., or like Indovision....

dont tell me we have to look at population of countries to have a decent choice of channels
I mean..there doesnt need to be that same amount of channel
But at least get the best channels in regardless of whether they listen to u astro..

hey..can anyone explain to me something
so many people here have said BBC and FOX and other channels are not on Astro
Coz Astro want them to listen to Astro but tey dont want
What does listen mean in this context?



Added on April 4, 2010, 12:56 amIs SkySports available anywhere in the world except UK?
*
If i'm not mistaken, Astro maybe want to deal the exclusive rights with them....
so, if make exclusive rights for astro, other pay tv operator in Malaysia cannot distribute their channels....

But as happened and reported for World Cup2006 and Euro 2008, Singapore couldnt watch RTM when matches were on
The signal was scrambled and they lose the feed while the match was on
It has to do with FIFA rights..
But Singapore will get to watch the World Cup
Their Pay TV operator is in negotiations with FIFA

RTM will show only 21 matches LIVE
15 will be on delayed
Astro show all 64 matches LIVE in both HD and SD
The World Cup is available on the sports package
Highlights on day to day programmes will be on Astro Arena
Last World Cup they had it on RIA
Now with it's moved to ARENA
*
WOW!!! all 64 matches live!
For sure lah, since we have to pay to Astro....
RTM is free TV only....

The best way to elimminate AOD all ladies stop watching AOD !! Be it Indian Malay or chinese most ladies love this dramas !!AOD still going strong cos of supportlah ! drool.gif
Astro mainly targets  ........ I dont think they are willing to add another RM20 to watch World Cup HD,so  I guess it may not be a hit as anticipated . With sport pack you are already commited to almost RM70pm , now who wants to pay RM90 for just a basic pack hmm.gif
*
I love AOD! But not all TVB shows in AOD..
But I will only subscribe AOD when they air the drama that i feel interested to watch it...
or we can say order by title, not dragon pack one... laugh.gif

Added on April 8, 2010, 7:37 pmBTW, today my Astro bill for April already arrived to me...

I wonder how will the firmware of the Byond box handles the recording later. Will it follow the start and stop times in the EPG? If that's the case, some programs will lose the endings, as lately many programs end after the scheduled end time, sometimes up to five minutes. Hopefully Astro will address this.
*
for Astro Max, you have the option to choose whether you want to extend the recording for 5 minutes to 60 minutes more than EPG time...
I always choose to extend my recording for at least 5 minutes when I was using Astro Max before change to Byond... smile.gif
but unfortunately, Astro byond will only allows us to record the channels that we're watching at that time.. since Byond did not have dual satellite tuner like Max
