QUOTE(opfish @ Feb 18 2011, 11:44 AM) Just got my B.yond yesterday & I'm lovin' it!!!! Anyway, all the HD channel numbers are quite alien to me. Need sometime for me to get them into my system. So I added them as favorite channels, thinking that I can navigate faster. Check on the manual, nothing mentioned about recalling the favs. Can teach me how? Or you guys have better ways for easy & fast channel switching? Press OK then fav button while banner appear.

Still remain, they will change the dish though, dont worry, the standard astro decoder can accept signal from the new dish

QUOTE(chikana @ Feb 11 2011, 07:16 PM) No point to record because after 2 days you purchased, the one that you record cannot be watched. Some more, the movies will be repeated every 2 hours so you watch almost anytime i have tested recording channel 310 HD, and still abe to watch after the channel free viewing ended last thursday. i think this might apply to astro first channel as well but not sure.

On Singapore: QUOTE Singapore Scraps TV License Fee By Mansha Daswani Published: February 18, 2011
SINGAPORE: Singaporean residents will no longer have to shell out a radio and television license fee, with the Media Development Authority (MDA) now due to receive government funding to finance public-service broadcast content.
The fee, payable annually by homes, hotels, offices and restaurants and bars that have TV and radio sets, has been in place since 1963. In 2009, the MDA received S$132.5 million ($104 million) from the S$110 radio and television license fee. Singaporean Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam said that the government would forgo about S$120 million ($94.1 million) from nixing the license. The cancellation was announced by the government as part of Singapore's new budget.
"The licence fees are losing their relevance," Shanmugaratnam said in his budget speech. "First, ownership of TVs is no longer limited to the middle- and higher-income groups. Today, most households—including 99 percent of lower-income households—own TVs. Second, with increasing media convergence, Singaporeans can now receive broadcast content over the Internet and mobile devices, which do not attract a licence fee."
The MDA will now support PSB content with government financing, said MDA CEO Aubeck Kam. "MDA will work closely with the industry to continuously improve the quality and reach of PSB content, including making them available on new platforms, in step with Singaporeans’ changing media habits."
The MDA says that about 3,000 hours of PSB content are produced each year for broadcast on seven free-to-air networks in Singapore. Examples include Channel 5's Fighting Spiders, okto's Club M.A.G.I.C., Vasantham's Sollameley and Suria's Gerimis Di Hati. http://www.worldscreen.com/articles/display/28738

No, I took MCE,I wonder if u know wat that means,You took SPM ? BTW this thread is for Astro Beyond and this is not the issue here. Check your astro box it states sarikata bahasa melayu which means subtitles in malay not subtitle in National Language, its where u use the term,here sarikata bahasa melayu is correct.  > This post has been edited by smileguy: Feb 19 2011, 06:31 PM

Malaysia's ASTRO and MAXIS role in Indian 2G Scam probedNew Delhi : India | Feb 17, 2011 By abraham_isaac 2 Along with South India's largest Media house- Sun TV Group, Malaysia's telecom giant Maxis and Media magnet Astro find themselves in the muddy puddle of great Indian scam- 2G Spectrum Scam. A report in a section of the Indian media, had said that investigators are probing the transaction between Sun TV Group and Astro as part of general probe into the 2G Scam. The report said that the government granted licenses to Aircel and Dishnet Wireless in 2006 while the applications of other companies were still pending. Aircel is owned by Malaysia's Maxis group. Astro All Asia Networks is also owned by Ananda Krishnan, the proprietor of Maxis. The then telecom minister, Dayanidhi Maran, is the brother of Kalanidhi Maran, Founder of Sun TV Network. In 2007, Astro has purchased stake in Sun Network for Rs.3,320 crore at a time when Sun had not started operations and had projected losses of $166 million in the first five years of operations.
