QUOTE(minimize @ Nov 16 2010, 09:15 PM) How you want to connect? Byond -> HDMI -> HD PVR - > HDMI -> HDTV? Is it something like that?  I haven't got around to try and output the byond signal to my standalone Sony HD PVR and see if the recording on the Sony works. But based on the feedback somebody gave after I asked here, I would think the interference will come in at random. The recording itself and burning to DVD would yield a perfect copy if it's exactly like the old Astro. Just that watching live or playback through the Sony HD PVR would get the intermittent interference in and out. BTW, the Sony does not have HDMI input but via component. Output is HDMI.

Need your guys advise here. I planning to ask my house reno contractor to conceal astro wiring during the reno work. Just wonder do i need to take any special precaution on the wiring so that it can support astro byond? as i plan to subscribe to Astro Byond later.
Thanks in advance.

Correct. I think TM will develop their IPTV part as it goes along. The TV part is almost like an afterthought. Cannot blame them as they are still new. Astro is terbalik. TV business first and develop their broadband as they go along.

As we always know, monopoly market is never good. This post has been edited by jchue73: Nov 18 2010, 06:09 PM

Thanks in advance. if you plan to go for byond PVR, make sure you lay 2 high quality RG6 cable, byond PVR needs 2 inputs for its twin tuner, splitter can not be used

QUOTE(minimize @ Nov 18 2010, 09:00 PM) Any news regarding F1 will be broadcast on HD next season?  QUOTE F1 closing on HD coverage for 2011
Formula 1 is close to giving the final green light for high definition television coverage of the sport to begin from the first race of the 2011 season, AUTOSPORT has learned.
With the HD switch topping the wish-list of fans during recent surveys, there has been much interest in how soon Bernie Ecclestone will approve the move - with the F1 supremo making it clear several times that he wanted to be sure that before he approved it, there were enough viewers capable of watching it and that broadcast channels were ready to distribute it.
Although he suggested in the middle of this year that the switch was unlikely before 2012, in recent weeks he has hinted that there was a chance it could be on the cards for 2011. In September, Ecclestone told the BBC: "I think we'll be moving to high definition, probably next year."
AUTOSPORT understands those chances have moved a major step closer in recent weeks as big efforts have been made behind the scenes to see what is possible for the start of next season.
It is believed that the plans are at a sufficiently advanced stage for orders to have been placed for the equipment that F1 chiefs will need for the sport to be broadcast in HD.
There has been no official confirmation yet from Ecclestone about the broadcast plans, however - and such a declaration is unlikely to be made until he is 100 per cent sure that the suppliers can deliver what F1 needs.
F1 global partner LG, which has a commercial interest in the sport switching to HD, pioneered test footage of HD at the 2009 Monaco Grand Prix, and more recently tried out 3D cameras at this year's Canadian Grand Prix.
LG's vice president of marketing and global sponsorship Andrew Barrett has said that he is confident F1 would be broadcast in HD next year.
"Not wanting to speak for Bernie, but we all know that the sooner the better," he told AUTOSPORT. "The consumers have bought the panels, we've all seen the HD footage and it is demonstrably better than standard definition.
"The fan will understand that in a moment, and every fan can have it – as they almost all have the HD televisions in their house. It cannot come fast enough and I hope it is next year – and I am hopeful that it is next year."
Although LG demonstrated at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix the first 3D F1 footage it had captured, Barrett reckoned it was still going to be a while before the sport could contemplate that technology as standard.
"3D though is a long way off," he said. "If it was my decision, I would not put it in 3D until there were enough televisions and enough consumers out there watching it to warrant the investment and the change. But HD, we all need now." http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/88363 This post has been edited by Qash-M: Nov 18 2010, 10:49 PM

AStro should read this. this is what I call smart thinking We dont need 3d improve HD and SD, understand ?
