Yes, suddenly we have a new HD channel 222, called EHD?  Now showing some entertainment launching by Bollywood stars in Malaysia, in ASTRO studio?  PQ excellent.  Maybe its free for all temporarily, too bad I can't understand a thing.

You can catch Ash during the Audio Launch itself. Somewhere in between the 5 hours event.
Expected Sun TV, Sun Music turn HD sometime before next year.

Reply to Qash-M and dxjb:

The feed now on Astro should be the one beaming out from Singapore. The feed may differ slightly from Singapore as Singtel has BPL rights.....ESPN HD MAL may have some MAL only programs.  For MAL, i believe the BPL rights seems to be shared between Astro and ESS.

There is no Sportscenter in HD on ESPN HD SIN....ESPN HD is not a mirror of the main ESPN channel.

15 HD channels by year end: Astro

KOTA KINABALU: Astro viewers will be able to enjoy 15 HD (high definition) channels by the end of this year, an addition to the eight they had now, disclosed its chief operation officer Henry Tan.

“How fast we can convert our programmes into HD is depending on our channel partners to switch to HD,” he said.

To date, Astro has a total of 125 channels, and Tan is confident that their viewership will continue to grow in time to come as TV is an evolution media.

“TV had evolved from the traditional black and white screen to colour and then SD (standard definition) before the introduction of HD system, so after experiencing the HD, I don’t think the people will want to revert back to the old system,” he said.

He told reporters this during a briefing on Astro content (education, Chinese, sports & Merdeka) and its innovation such as HD channels, Byond, Bplayer and PVR at a hotel on Friday.

He said Astro had put aside one-third of its content to promote local interests so as to bring Malaysia into the global pedestal such as in National Geographic

And in conjunction with the Merdeka Day celebration, he said Astro had created Mystory in Channel 318 to provide a liberty for Malaysians to share their story in all sort of forms whether through acting, speaking, writing and anything that they can think of.
