3d bluray discs

3D pron

That question is rather ambiguous as there are two answers that I can give: 1) I know because I tried all of the commercially available systems; 2) All of the active glasses flickered in MY experience.

You just have to get organized. Get a football club or a huge number of World Cup fans to call GSC or TGV about doing a 3D screening for the final. Don't call the phone reservation number; call the head office. Talk, don't shout, and tell them politely that you, state your name and perhaps phone number, would like ___ theater to screen the final match in 3D.

Also your group effort should target just ONE theater chain - so either GSC, TGV or Cineleisure or whichever chain that's in your town. The reasons are: 1) your group may not be large enough so your members may not have all the time in the world to do this; 2) the theater chain, once they figured out there is a demand for it, will publicize it like it's the best thing ever. So when #2 happens, the others will follow suit.

It does take coordination because the chain and Astro have to iron out deals; in return, Astro have to iron out deals with FIFA. So get it going quick and fast. Hopefully, Astro can provide a separate 3D 1080p25 feed to the cinemas.

Once Astro and the chain have established this relationship, future LIVE broadcast of not only 3D sports but also concerts can be arranged.

Well if you have a PS3, 3D games are already out. And 3D BDs are slowly coming; first title available is Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs. If you have the money, why not?

Want to ask sifu-sifu here what is the best HDMI cable for Astro Beyond? Thinking of grabbing "Girrafe", hope I spell it correctly How much does it cost now? Any recommended seller here?

FOC HDMI cable c/w byond box is good enough

Any rental......hee..hee
Bought 50" Pana Plasma just last year, now 3DHD? Pening kepala..... excited though!:stars:

in the context of this thread being Astro Byond - my question is cautionary as people are eyeing a 3DTV just for the WC finals alone. It would be more interesting to see what future 3D features Astro has in store.

on a wider perspective, i still think its premature to buy the current batch of 3DTVs, in relation to its price and the supporting softwares available. it would make more sense to buy it when 3D softwares (movies, games, etc) are more widely available and that would also be the time when the prices of 3DTVs would be relatively much cheaper and better 3D models are developed.

agreed. i did tried the box's cable vs samsung gold plate cable.. no difference

Niceeee.

Astro does not have any rights to broadcast to a cinema. If this is to be shown in GSC then GSC have to get the rights and they have to organise how the feed is delivered to them.

Thanks for the quick update, TJ. If that's the case, then I have low expectations of Malaysian 3D halls will be used for the World Cup finals.

Light rain here..

and...

SERVICE CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE...

Signal Level : 0

sigh..

Mine also like that sometimes when I press the tv button nrefresging maybe??

if you just turned on the decoder it can take several minutes to cache the first load of the EPG. It scans from channel 101 down from the first available time slot ie 101 - 1pm, 102 - 1pm 103 -1pm etc then it goes back to the top and scans the next time slot.

There is more to come too!

Thats the way to do business anyway ! However my opinion 3D is not needed now , giving more HD channels and giving a variety of HD content shld have been a priority , rushing to 3d is just like trying to be a jack of all trades but masters of none ! Are ur Beyond customers happy, did u ask them wat thay wanted, wat great channels do u think u hv given us,was a survey conducted and now why rush to 3D ?!Why is Discovery HD held up ?
Another thing for Bro Tall Justinn to look into, I hv raised this matter earlier, if I press channel 558 why cant the decorder go to the nearest availiable channel then to display the " channel is Not availiable " we cant memorise all channels right, pls bring back this feature pls. I wonder why many good features like this we had earlier hv been removed

What if the EPG is not having the latest show? e.g. upto 7 days. Can I put it into standby mode after watching the shows or do I need to off and on the decoder?

if your decoder is on it is not an issue it is only when you turn the power off and on again.

Hi Talljustin,
Can you guys from Byond software team, give back the function for manually record and set the own preferrable title for the program that i wanna to record, just like what MAX available some time ago...

and series recording for PVR seems so "rubbish" (sorry if i use strange word here)... I tried to record from series linking, but it doesn't work at all

TJ, 2 audio issues.

1) We're still getting 2.0 audio from AXN HD and FX HD while the other channels are in true 5.1

2) The Astro world cup promos are too loud, louder than the other ads and the actual program content.

you can manually record anything by using the TV Guide to highlight a show. Series linking will be ready very soon.

Added on July 7, 2010, 5:50 pmIf the channel gives us stereo then we can't give you 5.1.

The Astro world cup promo is mixed in 5.1, I think you need to tweak your HT audio levels a bit. pulled down the surround channels a bit. It sounds fine and level with other promos on my system.
I do notice jumps between studio and commercial breaks but not jumps inside the commercial break.
