QUOTE(ronnie @ Jun 21 2011, 08:28 PM) Astro CS make a boo-boo with my B.yond PVR upgrade (from normal decoder). Instead of RM150 installation, the order sent to Astro installer was the old RM300 price.... Now i have to wait longer. P.s. The promor of RM150 install fee for B.yond PVR begins on 15 June 2011. Also we can get the assigned Astro installer contact info upon 24-hour after order isplaced. How much longer u need to wait? Ask them to expedite for u. Mine is waiting for the lnb with 4 outlets since Assthrow just gives the installer lnb with 2 outlets. |

QUOTE(ronnie @ Jun 23 2011, 04:48 PM) Finally, the Astro installer is coming to my place after the idiot mistake of the first CS agent. 1st Order placed : 15 June 2011 2nd Order placed : 21 June 2011 (expedited by the good CS officer) Installer info received : 23 June 2011 Installed Date : 24 June 2011 Mine got installed today. Activation is instantly via IVR. Anyone here knows how to record a whole series like AOD without the need to select each episode one by one? |

QUOTE(orenhijau @ Jun 23 2011, 07:55 PM) Use the series link option. when u select ur programme to record there will be the series link button at the bottom. So, all the episodes in that series will be recorded? I noted that only Wax and Wane got series link but not Ghetto Justice... |

QUOTE(ronnie @ Jun 24 2011, 11:52 AM) Finally enjoying SuperPack 3 from Astro at lower price !!! Signal Strength Tuner 1 : 156 (2 new cable joined) Tuner 2 : 177 (1 new + 1 old cable joined) Installer configured User Defined Satellite settings.. is this good or bad ? As long u dun get loss of signal under normal circumstances then it should be fine. There is no pulse sound when checking the signal strength for byond pvr. |

QUOTE(ronnie @ Jun 24 2011, 12:53 PM) The length of the provided cable not long enough, thus it need to be joined together One LNB only with Dual Output - Output 1 : New cable 20m + New Cable 20m --> plug into Tuner 1 of PVR - Output 2 : New cable 20m + Old Cable 20m --> plug into Tuner 2 of PVR U got a big house. 40m for 1 length cable. |

QUOTE(orenhijau @ Jun 24 2011, 10:08 PM) Yup, for now its working just fine, it automatically scheduled to record at original timeslot of the series. Not the repeat show.. the bad thing about byond pvr is when the signal glitch due to rain, it only record b4 the signal lost.  I did check 4 Ghetto Justice, there is series link option there as well...  Able to record via series link option now. If the series recorded is not successfully completed then will it be smart enough to redo it?
Added on June 24, 2011, 10:41 pmQUOTE(spikey2506 @ Jun 24 2011, 10:08 PM) Is it a cock up from Astro? Or they intentionally gave CH188 to all Byond subscribers regardless of Mustika subscription? Watching Maharaja Lawak now Nobody will complaint if it is FOC... Maybe Assthrow wants to entice more to switch to byond. This post has been edited by pokemon: Jun 24 2011, 10:41 PM |

QUOTE(dxjb @ Jun 25 2011, 01:45 AM) The ESPN HD + is for Motor GP race tomorrow plus Formula 1 on Sunday..they want to avoid Motor GP and F1 fans complaining and angry like crazy again coz no LIVE in HD due to Wimbledon tennis like last year.. it will be so weird when ASSP HD 2 will be on CH830 and ASSP HD on ch831..cant they reorganise the numbering..? Ch830 should be left as a buffer channel for other ad-hoc screening. ASSP HD2 should move to CH833 and etc as a permanent channel. As usual, ASSthrow uses its ass to think and not the brain. |

QUOTE(minimize @ Jun 25 2011, 11:16 AM) I hate quality of Dolby Digital (DD) sound from Maharaja Lawak final HD. Echo is too high and i can't hear clearly what they're speak.  But PQ is great. Astro next time please take seriously how to produce great sound quality on DD. Beside Assthrow, a good amp will help to make the sound better in quality.
Added on June 25, 2011, 12:36 pmQUOTE(ronnie @ Jun 25 2011, 11:42 AM) If my TV does not process Dolby Digital, I cannot select Dolby Digital but Stereo, only ? TV normally has 2 speakers. I thought DD need about 5.1 speakers to get the effect. This post has been edited by pokemon: Jun 25 2011, 12:36 PM |

QUOTE(minimize @ Jun 26 2011, 03:04 PM) Good amp also cannot fix that echo problem. I'm using yamaha AVR and tried all settings to reduce that echo and it still fail. I also got same experience with Akademi Fantasia Final Concert HD which is also got high echo. What i can say is rubbish in rubbish out. So Assthrow ECHO is incurable |

QUOTE(spikey2506 @ Jun 26 2011, 07:59 PM) Disconnected my Astro via phone already. Feels good! If you have no more contract, you only have to return the smart card. My new housemate will upgrade his Astro account to the Superpack 1 since we can share the monthly charges. He is already a PVR user. Your house got 2 astro separately? |

QUOTE(stuffx @ Jun 28 2011, 07:46 PM) 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? Your Assthrow PVR is yet to be activated. Your Assthrow installer should activate it on the spot. |

QUOTE(G K Lai @ Jun 30 2011, 10:39 PM) Thanks for the latest news....  I don't know what problem with the site (or me)? Downloaded it's mobile App but was unable to login as it say I need to link my account. I remember I was previously linked my subscription with Astro web site before. Anyway, I try to link it again but failed! Despite I confirmed I entered everything correctly, the site always said I entered my Astro account number incorrectly...  I tried many times with all browsers I had (Chrome, Firefox, IE), so what's the problem here? Assthrow only eyes on $$$ and leave those so called improvement to those Indian software writers. Good example is those normal byond with external HDD PVR function which is hardly stable. Until now I don't see any new HD channels at the EPG and no annoucement at Assthrow website. Could it be a hoax? |
