QUOTE(minimize @ Jun 25 2010, 10:58 AM) I can link my Maxis at astro website. So activation code is sent to my maxis number. Linking Astro Ac serves no purpose now cos u cannot upgrade or change packs except to see your bill and profile. If you link using astro account, activation code will be sent to your hp number that you registered when opening account with astro.  |

Much has been said here about picture quality I suggest a few seniors here who seem to hv good knowledge about this get to together and get appointment to see Astro techincal team. maybe Tall Justin can give a hand here. see them for an open discussion and lets hear what they say about this>
They are claiming thier PQ has improved but I say lately it has gone from bad to worse.SD channels PQ is horrible worst thne pirated VCD ! |

QUOTE(apexg2 @ Jun 28 2010, 07:49 AM) how about we make a group in facebook, then we disscuss or someone technical from astro to have live interview there in facebook...if they willing to do so la...like honda just did with paultan.org and zerotohundred.com......so, we set time and date like 2 months from now?then we gather our FAQ and ask them...is it ok? Good idea indeed ! Cos we must hv their say on this, all the while its some of our well versed seniors hv brought up the issue and its purely technical so I suggest these guys shld bring it up with astro, pehaps a dialog wld help to rest this matter. Astro has said its PQ had gone better ! The issue is why SD PQ is so bad and distorted since WC This post has been edited by smileguy: Jun 28 2010, 11:09 AM |

QUOTE(AjkR06 @ Jun 28 2010, 11:43 AM) Just called Astro CS.., Bro I suggest u keep HD services but cut packages, no fun having HDTV without HD ! This is my humble opinion, I too gonna remove sports after WC, keep 2 mini and movie only ! I asked them whether I can cancel HD Services anytime that I want, and guess what they said, I can cancel it anytime that I want! Only RM10 one time charges will be billed to my account and they also will deactivate my HDMI port and I can only use component output... They informed me that after change to PVR, I did not stick to 1 year B.yond contract anymore..... and I can activate back HD services anytime that I want... Anyone can clarify this? Since I hardly believe what they said to me just now...., already "terkena" 2 times by them...  I planned to cancel HD services after WC end, and just maintain PVR services... it saves my RM20 per month.... |

After WC the next round of HD channels could be a Malay and a Tamil channel and perhaps another super surprise 3 in 1 rojak like FX !

Whatever on assto wld be dfferent. Infact FX HD is a compilation and JV with starworld, all schedules were rearranged to make way for FX! To get international HD channels like FOX pls keep our fingers crossed ! We still wonder why is it so hard to start Discovery HD ! I am sure a deal did not go through,bcos they got so many strings attached ! So far most of their deals are with STAR network

Added on June 30, 2010, 10:17 am QUOTE(jalsrix @ Jun 30 2010, 09:57 AM) Astro is always concern about big profit even though Ananda is one of the richest billionaire in malaysia. They always select providers who wl listen to them thats the truth, if they dont listen they wld be put on hold ! As for anandha we cannot blame him he is a silent shareholder only he has no say on how they run it ! Content Providers are willing to come but when we control them they back off , most Asian regions hv Discovery HD long ago then wat could be holding Malaysia then the service provider itself !  Maybe discovery HD will be part of the '2 remaining HD' by end of the year ? Fat chance !  Learning package has too many HD when compared to other packages. As u say Learning Pack is flooded adding more wl make it too cheap for rm20 so must think of another way to put Discovery HD maybe !  This post has been edited by smileguy: Jun 30 2010, 10:17 AM |

QUOTE(jalsrix @ Jul 1 2010, 12:12 AM) Anybody know how to record the SERIES option ? This option is not accessible now I think, this could be another pay feature where u can dwld all series The manual say we can record by series but doesn't teach how to do it.  Added on July 1, 2010, 6:18 am QUOTE(chuppachop @ Jun 30 2010, 10:33 PM) you're right....below is a screengrab of the ESPN HD SEA/Singapore channel - the channel bug is different. Assto controls channels nobody can deny it,thats why channels take time to come to Malaysia, Singapore does not impose anything on content providers but here our friend haves them under its spell but claims and blames the providers for all shortfalls! Providers with pride take off like MGM Discovery HD has still got to meet the requirements I think so it may take time !This post has been edited by smileguy: Jul 1 2010, 06:18 AM |

We can dream on this ,I salute Finland ! Finland has become the first country in the world to make broadband a legal right for every citizen. From 1 July every Finn will have the right to access to a 1Mbps (megabit per second) broadband connection. Finland has vowed to connect everyone to a 100Mbps connection by 2015.  |

QUOTE(Great_Cookie @ Jul 5 2010, 10:29 AM) Hi there writesimply! Sorry cannot get u, u hv a PVR or just BeyondLong story put short; my current setup uses a 1-way LNB (similar to b.yond without PVR) running a SINGLE cable using a splitter just before the tuner 1/2 input at box. I know this is a non-standard setup (really didn't want to run a 2nd cable down since my place uses totally concealed wiring and I didn't want to knock holes in walls again). Have the highlighted issues as reported before (ie; tuning from HD to SD channels, pvr will report loss of signal/rain msg) but REALLY curious to know why I seem to be able to receive some HD channels but not all. Could it be a signal strength issue? or the fact that my current setup is restrictive (but why can I receive some, not all)? Hoping that the stacker de-stacker unit will solve all my issues. Also puzzling my installers is why I had no signal at all using Entry point 18; they said should usually have some signal, but the decoder reported absoutely nothing ('Unlocked' at '0'). Currently using 17 - it is a dish alignment issue (unlikely to my thinking since everything else comes in ok). Any suggestions if I were to use the manual ('user defined' installation settings what I should go for? Would it make a difference in maybe being able to receive the HD channels I currently can't view but subscribe to? (HBO HD/Nat Geo HD/History HD). Thanks again to all the sifus out there! |

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 This post has been edited by smileguy: Jul 7 2010, 03:30 PM |
