Last Month, while I'm back in Kedah, they are still shouting at each other in the morning but I'm surprised to see they are blesed with 8 kids already with their eldest just got into a Uni in Australia! Talk about love-hate relationship, that is teh best example I can give.  thumbup.gif

Well you win some you lose some. Kasi can la to that Installer. Maybe nak balik kampung for the CNY. Although, at the very least he could've informed Astro during the assignment of installation cases.

Anyway,
Do tell me if second installer also balik kampung  tongue.gif

Since when are astro installer chinese ?

I have only seen malays and indian installers. Do they need to rush back for reunion dinner ? laugh.gif Customer service failed !

We as Malaysians are being severely screwed up by those monopolised companies.  Who granted them the exclusive license to operate in pay satellite tv?  Same goes to highway operators with guaranteed profits for them.  If our cable/satellite tv industry is open, then we can see the savior.   Astro did not make it in Indonesia and lost million of ringgit is a very good example.  Astro can't make money with their retarded mentality in doing business in a fair manner.

Agree 100% !

Lapaq wouldn't be saying like that if Starhub TV from Singapore is given a license to operate in Msia to compete with Astro.

Anyone want to bet that 'Ass throw' is going to go bankrupt if Starhub comes in ? brows.gif

Fox crime is available in indonesia, vietnam, philipines, india, thailand but NOT malaysia ? doh.gif Astro failed !

Wanna ask one noob question, if I connect my audio from beyond to my HomeThreater, will it affect or interfere with my picture quality?

No, it won't affect because they are on different 'wires'.

Channel 338 is now already available.

BUT I am using Byond with Plasma HDTV and it seems that 338 is not like an HD channel at all.

From 3 feb onwards, i just checked.

BAD stuff....

- NO automatic weekly recording schedule
- NO way to DELETE recording after watching
- very CONFUSING interface, multiple steps to watch a recoding
- Whoever designed the user interface definitely NOT a AstroMax user or ever used a PVR before!!!!

Any idea how to fix this ?
*
Are you sure the daily recording schedule is working ?

You can delete recording by pressing red button.

What do you expect from a monopolised company like astro ? The interface is confusing and the remote control bulky and very unfriendly.

What i hate most but miss a lot is the going to the nearest channel function ,this was avaliable wiith older decorders now u hv to memorise every channel  number to tune on  if not the message  "channel not avaliable"  will pop on the screen. This is silly the decorder shld go to the next nearest channel. If i press 833 the channel shld go to 831 or 832,imagine  the old folks how can they remember every channel number ? hmm.gif Now  i understand the gist of being losers !! notworthy.gif

This was already complained by many people in LYN 1 year ago and it is still not fixed.

Now you know why astro is nickname 'ass throw'.

I used to be able to press favorite button to cycle through the channels in my old astro device but this new 'improved' version cannot do that in one press.

Ch338 is Zhi Zun HD preview shown in SD. Ch310 is the real Zhi Zun channel in HD. I don't subscribe to Dynasty package so I don't get ch310 normally. However I thought all HD subscribers are supposed to get ch310 for free 3-17Feb? Can somesone confirm this because I still can't get the ch310 currently? Thanks.
*
Confirmed ! I cannot view ch310 also !

ch 338 has poor resolution. Anyway, happy CNY.

Ass-throw is slaying the customers here at their will.  Bear in mind, the customer base in Malaysia is many times greater than in Singapore and Starhub can offer more attractive package than Ass-throw.  Believe Ass-throw must have feeding too many useless ppl in the organisation.  You can see very glamour positions.  CEO, President, Vice-President, Assistant Vice President and etc.  With such a big organisation and yet they can't manage the customer service level well. Garbage in and garbage out.

That's because all of them have the same arrogant attitude as LAPAQ !

As long as their cronies earn money, they don't care about customer satisfaction.

I finally realised these are the CORE chinese channels because you can only press the 'red' button in these 3 channels and pop out the CNY schedule.


Mandarin - AEC 301
Cantonese - WLT 311
Hokkien - HHD 333


The only channel missing is the Hakka channel, why no Hakka demanding for their own channel ?

Channel 310 is in HD. I am not a dynasty subscriber and I am able to watch it now. Astro even stated it in their advertisement.

Did you read my post ?

Somebody made a boo-boo in Astro and didn't switch on the channel 310 for 1 or 2 days of CNY for non dynasty subscriber.

I am really having a hard time to keep track of the episode of the TV series recorded from the Byond PVR. Why Astro does not state the episode # in the programme description? I found that all the episodes, at least for the Three Kingdoms, are all having the same description (info). How do I know it's which episode and whether it's a repeat or not..  doh.gif

Astro management will say that it's a love-hate relationship, so they don't bother about valid customer complaints. laugh.gif

Good idea !

Paying rm 20 for a few HD channel is daylight robbery.

Well...not quite. You weren't held at gunpoint and forced to hand over 20rm a month for a few channels. You made that decision yourself.

I don't think myr20 is too bad for the 8 or 9 HD channels I watch. Apart from AXN, the others are actually new channels (as opposed to HD broadcasts of existing channels) so they do add to the variety available.

Where are the 8 hd channels for basic subscribers ? You think most people are rich to subscribe to sports, movie and dynasty ?

The list in basic package is

393
706
720
721
726

5 only !

At least the mini packages are more affordable, but that is for additional 2 channels only.

Once Ass throw adds Disney HD, Discovery HD, star world HD, Fox HD then it is worthwhile subscribing HD.

Am from Singapore.....here are the correct List:

Starhub Cable
1. Discovery HD World
7. FOX HD
8. FOXCRIME HD
10. STAR World HD
15. ASN HD


MediaCorp Free-to-Air [Terrestrial]
1. HD5
2. HD8 - coming this year according to reliable news
3. HDU - coming this year according to reliable news

We need to have the above HD , in addition to disney HD.

Free TV is counted as everyone in the country can view it.

By the way, what is ASN HD ?
