Can read abt all that in Astro FAQs or if yu had asked Installer @ time of installation.

QUOTE Malaysia’s (Media) Prima Installs EditShare for HD
EditShare, the technology leader in cross-platform collaborative editing and shared media storage systems, has announced that Media Prima Berhad (Media Prima) has installed over 200 Terabytes of EditShare storage products at its location in Malaysia to support its move to HD production and delivery. Media Prima is recognised as Malaysia’s leading integrated media investment group. The storage systems will enable better collaboration between a large group of video editors, artists, producers and audio engineers. All ingested video and audio content can be accessed directly, and video can be played and edited in real-time by all creative departments without the need to copy or move media. “We are thrilled that Media Prima has once again turned to EditShare to expand its file-based workflows,” says Paul Hayes, VP Sales and Marketing, EditShare Asia Pacific. “EditShare’s shared storage solutions include a sophisticated software toolset developed especially for managing large amounts of storage and users, and is particularly suited to all Media Prima’s production genres, including News, Sports, Current Affairs, Entertainment, Internet Video and Reality TV.” Media Prima installed two EditShare systems four years ago in its web/online department, Alt Media. Two years later, TV3 added more EditShare collaborative storage to service over 20 Final Cut Pro editing suites. The need to produce more content in HD has resulted in the recent acquisition by Media Prima of additional EditShare storage, proof of the advantages offered with file-based workflows and collaborative storage. The newly added systems are servicing Media Prima’s content creation for TV3, 8TV, ntv7, and TV9. Media Prima has over 80 broadcast video editing suites, including Avid Media Composer and Final Cut Pro HD. Producers can also view low-resolution “proxy” video versions of HD content at their own desks using EditShare’s Flow Browse, allowing them to efficiently log ingested material, as well as offering them pre-editing capabilities using only a desktop or notebook computer. http://www.content-technology.com/asiapacificnews/?p=1392Time would tell when will all of those work will be aired in HD...

Last Sunday there was a very fierce lightning in my area and when it strike, my TV and astro decoder went blank for awhile. The lightning killed my modem & router, lucky not my TV. yes..my Atdro twice kena lightning..just gone blank and cannot turn on..TV once kene..the second time only Astro.. My advice to all Malaysians..when ever there is lightning and thunderstorms, if possible, unplug all electrical devices unless ur home is protected from lightning strikes in any way of form..just switching off wont be enough..and even more so for Astro coz there have been cases when even when the decoder has been unplugged, lighning can still cause damage..very dangerous if ur not at home if that happens..

Thats right friend, just a week before deepavali in 2005 my complete HTS worth almost RM8000 was gone, the damage was severe cos the normal aerial with booster was connected though the system was not in use but on standby!!  So when lightning unplug HTS please !

Hi guys , I am planning to set-up a home theatre connecting to my astro beyond. Well, I had a LCD TV with HDMI input . Currently , I am plugging in my astro beyond to the LCD through HDMI cable. Basically , the connection is simple as it transmit the audio and video to the LCD. For now , I am planning to buy a home theatre to connect to the Astro Beyond. So I was wondering, If I purchase a HDMI splitter 1*2 ,will it do the work ? So basically ,the connection would be , the Home Theatre connect to HDMI splitter , LCD TV connect to HDMI splitter , and connect it to the Astro Beyond ? Do I need to provide some setting as well ? Kindly guide and shed some light guys !! Thanks for all the in put in advance. =) p/s: Where can I get the HDMI Splitter for 1*2 ? Pricing anyone ? Thanks This post has been edited by anzen600: Sep 24 2011, 10:25 AM

Not that Astro audio are that awesome. Most of the time its just stereo and DD 5.1 for some (not all) HD Content.

Suddenly my Astro Byond not working. Tried cold boot. Media Player works fine so it's not the TV. What's the phone number to call? Couldn't find it on Astro website.
