im not getting it..maybe coz im using sharp lcd..turn it on and the last channel u watch yesterday, will appear on screen

my sharp lcd have to press power button twice to on and off...if i press only once..it will go to channel 1

sometimes happened to me too..but most of the time i only press once and it will turn on..maybe the tv detect the signal but the processor too slow to react..and when we press the remote 2nd time thats why it goes straight to channel 1..donno just my guess

Similar experience

to those of u who have to wait around 12-24 hours after pvr installation, may i know what error message that appears on your tv? mine is "please insert the correct astro smart card or call the customer service" after the installation today. is it supposed to be like that or do u see other error message?

just normal DVB T decoder.

Your Assthrow PVR is yet to be activated. Your Assthrow installer should activate it on the spot.

Hi all,

I know there are threads about the equipments for extending B.yond signal to another TV.
But I would like to know if can I just buy a HDMI splitter like the one used at electrical shops?
I don't mind not being able to change channel from other room.
The problem is, are there any HDMI cable that is 20ft-30ft long exist in the market?

Thank you in advance.

i knew something was not right when he asked me to wait for 1 hour to get signals.. i will lodge a formal complaint to astro regarding this irresponsible installer for not doing their part completely

StarHub Revises Cable TV Subscription Rates From 1 August 2011
-
Singapore, 28 June 2011 – StarHub will revise its residential cable TV monthly subscription by an additional $2 (before GST) with effect from 1 August 2011.

Ms Iris Wee, StarHub’s Vice President of Home Solutions and Content, explained that this rate revision is necessary because of rising content costs over the past few years. “StarHub has been absorbing these costs while enhancing our TV content to customers,” said Ms Wee. “We have managed to hold our prices for the last four years but we are unable to continue absorbing the increased costs. We hope that our customers will understand our situation and support us so that we can continue to provide them with quality entertainment for their enjoyment.”

StarHub has through the recent years, added as many as 15 channels for customers at entry level at no additional charge. These include Animax, BBC Knowledge, Bloomberg Television, E City, Eurosportnews, Food Network Asia, FOX, National Geographic Wild, ONE, Playhouse Disney, SuperSports Arena and TVBS-News. In addition, StarHub had dedicated channels that were event-based such as the 2008 Beijing Olympics and 2010 Youth Olympic Games. All these helped to enhance the viewing experience of its customers.

For more information on the StarHub TV rate revision, customers may SMS ‘CATV’ to 76333 or call 1633 and press ‘7’ after the ‘language’ and ‘StarHub product’ options for more details. They can also visit a specially created StarHub-Facebook page at www.starhub.com/tvraterevision. Alternatively, customers may email their queries to starhubtv@starhub.com.

StarHub currently carries about 170 channels over its cable TV platform. For more information on StarHub TV, visit www.starhub.com/tv.

There is a bit of nuisance with it Bro. Here is my experience.I tried the splitter one in two out. My hall Tv is linked to HTS while the room is on its own. Watching both video together no problem. When u adjust ur room TV volume the HTS to increases ! The room tv no sound until u off the HTS,Its just too complicated.Each time u hv to off here and there.Then when u off ,comes the problem of resetting stereo or 5.1 sound on your beyond for room tv to get sound. All I wish they just had a F...... switch to enable one or both the TVs,so think before u get one,I lost almost RM400,incl. a 10m HDMI cable !End of the day its back as usual with the faithfull composite cables!! Maybe some seniors here do hv a solution for this.
