Don't waste your money on expensive hdmi cable. Unless you are looking for the bud quality of the cable itself. Ie. Thicker, stronger. Physically, the more expensive or branded cable are of course better. But, lucky for us, it doesn't affect most of us. To know if a cable is bad, u have to try it yourself. If snow effect, I mean very bad snow effect or maybe the whole picture got color tint. Also problems like handshake issue.

Good cables, will probably be needed by ppl whom are running very long length. Ie 7m above.

So my personal opinion, buy the cheap one first. Then if cannot only get better cables. Make sure to check the connection first to make sure they are inserted properly before jumping to conclusion.

no where did it mention it will transmit in HD, or even the connections that are available, am i missing some info bro? sorry ya

Best to avoid these types of gadgets.

guys, are the live matches for WC broadcasted in Dolby Digital?

Is it? I check the replay this afTernoon, don't have the dd logo.

Can some pls explain to me what the logos mean. N I noticed whether got dd logo or not on hd channels, that doesn't mean anything right now. Some channels or program still 2.0 although showing dd logo. What does <--> mean??

Looks very promising this product. For rm1xx worth to try la. Cannot give opinion cos never use before. But looks very promissing NIH yeah, u have to put in the cost for the network cable also.

Da ma cai?

maybe it's your tv setting. check your tv settings at the sound/audio part. HDMI audio = Digital/analogue

this setting is available on my panny plasma.




So this means that byond/PVR does not actually off itself even on standby. It is still receiving and is decoding. This also explains the heat the units are producing and the instant on. This also explains the higher electricity bill..



Can someone post the electricity consumption in idle/standby and on?

any ideas on power consumption for the normal byond box?

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

this 3d thing astro is doing is to show what they can do with the hardware they have la..... nothing more. to be the first. maybe also to retain sports subscriber from cancelling their sports subscription. if you noticed, the astro byond ad has changed from lampard & messi to torres.. and at the end, with logos of other sports broadcast, eg. EPL, Serie A and many others... retention...

you can check and see if your decoder has HDMI enabled by going into setting > system info or something like that.
