my only complaint is commercial break every 10 mins during live F1 race. BBC HD can do it live without any commercial break why cant star sport and ESPN HD.

oo~~ understood your point. means to have all AV input to AVR, the it powers up the speakers, as well as video to TV.

any recommended AV receiver with tight budget of perhaps around RM700??

thanks!

You should know about BBC is publicly funded TV thus it has no advertisement in all BBC channels:

bro...cpmmercial break....but it still lotus advert rite....lagipon not long rite....

Is anyone noticed there's no "Government Service Tax (6%)" on latest Astro bill, yet my bill still rising more than last month... (Or they "hidden" it)

commercial break is ok but no need lah until every 10 - 15 mins, and sometimes the commercial break spoiled some exciting moment, sometimes u missed one part of exciting overtaking or pit incident because of the bloody commercial break.

Thats life..just get on with it..sometimes we are just trying too hard to find something to be unhappy about..before this, it was all about F1 not in in HD..and then F1 in only upscaled HD..commercial breaks every 10-15 minutes on ESPN STAR SPORTS has been there ever since F1 was broadcast on their channels..nothing new

Anyone?

I dont mind watching it on SD providing that the quality of the SD pic is on par with RTM1 at least. It isnt enjoyable to watch SD on my current HDTV as the pic quality of certain channels are really poor, including the one I was babbling about. Then who's to blame if not Astro?

Sundance Channel FB quote:

I don't mind the commercials but that Steve Slater is really irritating. Most of the time not aware of what's going on and his trademark "let's savour the sound of the 2.4l engine" is so annoying. I just wish that there's the cantonese commentary in the HD feed.

I've been billed RM164.30 which is RM155 (subs for SP3) + RM9.30 (6% GST)...which I was told by Astro CS @time of upgrade.

Oh, right... I was wondering, if one cannot use bigger dish than 65cm to receive foreign signal, maybe can use it to improving only Astro signal?

Indonesia to Broadcast Football Matches Overseas
September 15, 2011

Officials don’t know how the new domestic football league will be run, when it will kick off or even which teams will be in it. But one thing is certain — for the first time in history, Indonesian league matches will be broadcast overseas.

Liga Prima Indonesia, the country’s professional league administrator, signed a broadcast deal on Thursday with television content provider Broadway Media of Malaysia, which will air Indonesian football games in Malaysia on the Bintang and Pelangi channels on Astro All Asia Networks’s digital satellite network.

“[Indonesian] league games now will not only be watched by roughly 85 million football fans in the country, but we predict at least three to five million more viewers in Malaysia,” said the LPI’s chief executive, Widjajanto. “They won’t just have live coverage. They will also have supporting programs such as weekly highlights, previews and players profiles.”

The league also stands to gain new fans in Brunei since Astro also broadcasts in that country.


..........so football fans got to add another package ?!
