Hi,
My eyes pain when i watch astro HD channels.
When i watch normal channels, it is okie.
May i know y?
Izit the backlight that caused my eyes to feel pain?
Or my eyes spoilt d?
Wan get some feedback frm u all..

If ur eyesight has no problems,then maybe it just a matter of getting used to it, dont watch too close, adjust your TV settings to suitable settings, if Auto is availiable try it.I think its the glare,try reducing the sharp,contrast settings. thumbup.gif Good luck

Cos i found out that the quality of the channels now are bad and not as good as previously b4 i changed to HD.
Hope u get what i mean?
Izit i need to change any setting??

SD channels on astro are still bad on most latest TVs,as someone here said try setting gamma to 2.5 or below,and it does improve PQ. nod.gif

Gamma shd not change PQ the way u want ie it does not make SD any better or anything. Gamma is a change of how the intensity of white changes with different levels.

Well, that's alwaz the situation one has 2bear with as long as it's a MONOPOLY!! NO other choice ie for MOST Msians...sad.gif

Wat's needed is GOOD, STRONG & HEALTHY COMPETITION!!
Then conditions & services will sure improve!!
NB. So far competitors hv come AND GONE...FAILURES!!
Gotta wait for THAT DAY to come...long long wait ahead...mayb not even this decade? sad.gif

I agree with u,I dont see any competition in the near future,Our friend wl enjoy FULL govt. backing UNLESS the next election .......... nod.gif Channels which come in too come with an agenda,thats why they are very selective and channels must make a deal with them first! See how they use the channels to REPEAT something on Malaysia and claim they hv the best compilation for merdeka, doh.gif

I may be wrong but I think mostly the First Video On Demand Channels will concentrate on local Malaysian productions which are cheaper when compared to the latest US blockbusters in current cinema release. Its also not possible for blockbusters such as Transformers 3 shown currently in cinemas to be released as VOD here because the film distributors will not sell screening rights to Astro. Therefore, what will be procured by Astro to be screened in First VOD will be B rated, budget or lower cost productions from independent film companies. I don't expect big production companies from Warner Bros, Universal, Paramount, etc will ever release their blockbusters to Astro First when they can make better profits from the current releases in the international cinema circuit. They also don't want pirates to duplicate from Astro First in HD their big budget blockbuster movies currently showing in cinemas.

For Astro First, the foreign english movie mentioned by Qash-M is "Flypaper" which you can easily check from the info by going to Channel 489 using your Astro decoder.

Movie Info - Flypaper
It is not a big production movie produced by an independent film company and distributed by IPC. IPC also distributed many other (unheard off) B-Rated, budget and bad flops (forgettables) such as Boogie Woogie (2010), The Good, The Bad, The Weird (2010), No One Knows About Persian Cats (2010), Vincere (2010), Stolen (2010), etc.

The cast included Patrick Dempsey, Tim Blake Nelson, Ashley Judd, Mekhi Phifer, Greg Germann, Pruitt Taylor Vince. Please correct me if I am wrong... as of 19-08-11, it is currently showing in only 2 theatres (cinemas) in the US, hehe !

How good is the movie ? I don't know as I have not watched it but I "suspect" its another average movie that I will not spend on the Astro First (1 Movie) subscription, and instead, spend on chicken rice and kopi bing !  hmm.gif

Movie Synopsis : Tripp Kennedy (Patrick Dempsey) ambles into a bank near closing time, just as two different gangs unwittingly converge to rob it. A shoot-out erupts, and Tripp tackles the smart, pretty teller, Kaitlin (Ashley Judd), to protect her.

Although highly unlikely, even if current latest big blockbusters (such as "Harry Potter 7 Part 2") were to be shown in Astro First, I think it will be very expensive to subscribe for each movie.

Yes astro wl ONLY screen average rated.Morever pls note that nothing is like a cinema,I understand that TV versions slightly differ from cinema version,some parts are removed quietly to protect each other interest.say no to AF!

Maybe later Assthrow will include Assthrow Failed Movies into Superpack4 in coming fee increase exercise, like what they did for ABO for Superpack 1 & 2 and AOD for Superpack 3.
*
Yes I hv to agree with u, the tamil ABO with flops has been included in the SP2 ,so HD customers have to opt for the SP2 although the movies are screwed up ,cos breaking the pack is costly,in front of the cunning fox we are defeated eventually.Before some of the movies are shown some selected are screened on AF at RM15! But I wl say turning AF to a flop is in our hands! nod.gif

one is hdtv and one is normal tv, help pls.

thanks.

rclxms.gif .HDTV use HDMI connection, for old tv use composite or component connection which is availiable in your Beyond box,in this case composite which is Red,White and yellow cable is suitable cos it comes availiable in metres needed. tongue.gif
