Guys, i just istalled beyond today.
Have a question.
1- My Sharp LED tv is only detecting 1080i and 50hz, but my tv suppose to be 1080p and 100hz. Should i be worried?
Astro transmitting in only 1080i mainly for HD. NOT in FULL HD or 1080p. At times it can even be upscaled/converted SD material. Sorry...
So yr TV is ok. Actually one does NOT need FULL HD TVs to watch Astro B'yond programs...a HD READY TV is good enuf.

If plan to use TV only for watching Astro B'yond prgs, you only need a HD READY TV ie onecthat supports 1080i.
If plan to also watch Blu-ray Discs of movies in 1080p, then only do yu need a FULL HD TV. Frankly even a good HD READY TV can be used to watch such BD Discs too.
However, of course, if yr budget allows, then it's more of YOUR CHOICE of TV...
