Hi Guys, hope you all can help me. My house previously running on Astro Max and I just installed Astro Byond PVR yesterday. I have 3 HD Tvs in different locations of the house and previously I use a RF booster to transfer the signals to all the Tvs, but they all have to watch only one channel at a time.

For this Byond, I was told that only the TV connected to the decoder has the HD signal, the others have to watch shows which are worst quality than without Byond. Is there a way to send the HD signals to other tVs as well. There must be a way to do it because I don't think Mcdonalds have One HD decoder for every TV in its premises?

Please advice, appreciate it.

iinm, this is the usual composite video/stereo audio wireless transmitter. It will not give you HD as it will be connectd to the yellow/red/white terminals at the back of your decoder. In fact, it may slightly deteriorate your AV quality.

Also, this stuff usually operates on 2.4GHz, so could face interference from your wifi or other 2.4G equipment in your house. Unless your locations are very close by...

Annoying thing with PVR (that MAX do it better)

1) After finish watching recorded episode, only two option - STOP (will go to the channel live from astro), or REWIND (rewind episode)
Where is the DELETE option. (Very annoying to press home again and find the same episode that i need to delete)
Where is the WATCH FROM THE START OPTION.
2) Preview. No preview the episode that has been recorded on the small screen.
This is good feature in Astromax, because when there is so many same title episode, you;ll know which one to watch again, or to delete....without clicking on it to preview againnn...
3) Series Link. NOT GOOD AT ALL when you don't have option to record weekly only, or daily....instead of record all the repeted episode so many times....

4) No Manual Planner to record the programme weekly, when those programme is not have series link.

5) Forward Button. I actually like the 30 second fast forward feature in MAX. Easy to forward through the advetisement.
Hopefully someone from Astro can read this make improvement when necessary.......

Hi Jpaul, you can verirfied your HDMI by connecting the other side of HDMI to laptop/notebook with HDMI output. If the same problem output.. I believe your LCD got problem. But if you play movie from you laptop and the sound & movie come put normally.. I sure the PVR decoder got problem..
