why is the topic being discussed? are those new channels available on measat 3a?

just received my astro bill . There is a 6% govt tax this month onwards !

It is about time to remove some package after CNY to save cost !

The cheapest family package is now rm 42.40

haha..is it new channel?anybody can take picture?got instrument?

For now, those channel are available by using 6ft satellite dish and DVB-S2 receiver.

who got that thing?please share here with us!

I hope I can ask this question here....I'm currently using the older version of astro, the coaxial cable type and i'm splitting the output from the decoder to my hall tv and also to my room...this means the same show will be shown on both tvs....I'm curious if I can do the same with Byond since its using the HDMI cable....

Appreciate the advice....

Come to East Malaysia some day..... how many do you want?

No problem, you can do it with a HDMI splitter.

Thanks for the reply....I forgot one piece of detail, my room tv is the older CRT type type so there is no hdmi input

Oh, that's even easier. Just connect the HDMI to your TV in living hall and the composite out (yellow) to your room. You can indeed watch both TVs at the same time.

is it astro channel 338 in chinese new year in sd format??

Anyway to change the channel on the 2nd tv outside my room? Let say if I have the old transmitter.

Quite inconvenient cos each time you must change Beyond sound settings if u select 5.1 for HTS !

Oh, and let say my storage space in the decoder has been all used up. Can I use my external to record? Just plug it into the USB slot and that's it?

Thanks guys...
Well dont have a home theater sys so the sound thing shouldn't be an issue

in west malaysia, it is very strict unless you can hide it.

Yes

If you have something like AEM link, you need to buy an AV to RF converter to make it work.
But if you watch HD channel, you might get copy protection fail message.

Are you referring to PVR? Then, the answer is NO.

urgghh!!! I just had Astro Beyond installed a moment ago and was not aware that it needs activation and it's not immediate activation.

I called Astro CS and was told waiting time is fm 48 hrs to 2 weeks??!!
My mom was so happy thinking she could watch Astro during CNY and I hate to dissapoint her.

Do I just sit and wait??
