QUOTE(neb @ Nov 22 2010, 09:46 PM) for LED-backlight LCD, colour for some scenes seem to be a bit funny  but the real benefit is it uses very little power if LED has brighter display and better contrast why would the scenes appear to be funny?? Anyone has owned a LED and LCD that can give some comments??

I noticed there are many stickers here in KL that says they offer Astro for low price. Normally below RM40. Are these "special offer" any good? Do they use a modem to stream it or normal Astro dish?

QUOTE(bogusgenius @ Nov 22 2010, 10:26 PM) nOOb question. Will the pvr function work only with the WD AV HDD or is it just a gimmick? I want to get a bigger disk and want to be sure. It's not a gimmick, but it's reality... Only WD My Passport AV 320GB can be fully functional with Byond....

Do they use a modem to stream it or normal Astro dish? that would just be the family package coz its just RM37.95..i think now is free installation but in 1st bill there will be a stamp duty of RM10..so 1st bill is likelyRM47.95 then RM37.95 onwards from the 2nd month..of course use astro dish This post has been edited by dxjb: Nov 23 2010, 12:48 AM

Exactly pal !  now its time to relax and take a nap or perhaps indulge in a bit of politics to carry the feeding ruling party with adverts like Astro Kasih ! YTL ? I remember Mitv now ! Test 1 & Test 2 channel is for Max . Wonder wats tvsites ? This post has been edited by smileguy: Nov 23 2010, 11:07 AM

QUOTE The trials make TDC a potential contender for access to Astro besides Maxis. However, since TDC only focuses on multi-dwellings such as condominiums and apartments blocks, its reach may be limited. TDC finds it too costly to focus on fibre to the home as done by TM. If the IPTV is released, they get the benifit...

Hi, i did call astro to subscibe Byond on 8 Nov 2010, yesterday installer call me to set appointment today at 12.00pm. that's max 10 working days. but 9.am, installer sms me "tak dapat pasang astro you punya rumah hari ni, kerana semua installer astro dihentikan buat sementara waktu." i waited so long for this day & even already take 1/2 day off. is that an excuse or astro having a problems on new byond installations?

If the reason they gave to you is true, seem like that's something happen now... You need to call Astro CS to clarify

probably byond box and dish no stock, or may be due to court case

I call for subscription and waiting for more than 10 days still no news, I asked one of the astro installer in my area, he said that Astro is now changing their beyond system, once it is set the installation process will continue.
Or perhaps it has something related to the court case?

Or perhaps it has something related to the court case? I think this definitely has to do with their system being shut down for system upgrade..even though it seems like installing a Byond set doesnt have to do with anything office-related, but it actually does as they will need to activate ur account, verify ur account and so on..most of these things are done in the office and since their system is shut down for a 10 day period if im not mistaken, they are temporarily stopping any work related to new accounts or related.. sometimes installer doesnt know how to explain and thus they say astro changing their byond system..and look at the effects it has on the forummers here..many jump to different conclusions already..hehe not ur fault mate..everyone is curious but i think no need to worry..its just the customer service update that is hindering ur installation rite now

eh what's wrong with B.yond now, change other channel but if press OK, to see other channel programs, it will go to channel 101
or simply press Ch + or Ch - when change channel it will say channel 101
