QUOTE(neb @ Apr 30 2011, 08:16 PM) I heard even in standby it uses 20W ,so I switch off my byond every night Hi neb, do you have any experience whether if I switch off the PVR set at night then switch on the next morning, will my scheduled recording will be lost? putting byond in standby is to facilitate firmware update, so may be you can let it in standby during the day hours  I always wanted to turn if off at night because I find it is too hot! _____________________________________________________________________________ QUOTE(RAMChYLD @ Apr 30 2011, 10:12 PM) Never heard of this. I call bull. Especially since you can force FW upgrade from front panel. Hi RAMChYLD, can you tell us how to do "force FW upgrade"?  I believe this will come in handy when we need to do this in future...  |

QUOTE(azrin_kiko @ May 1 2011, 10:34 AM) Just put the laptop fan below the byond and use the usb port to power it. Great idea, thanks!  QUOTE From my memories, you'll just have to press the power button -> ch+ -> ch- in sequence in fast pace, the decoder will reboots and checks for sw update OIC, looks like not as easy as 123... Thanks for your info... |

QUOTE(azrin_kiko @ May 4 2011, 08:22 PM) How noob are the technicians that not make a full diagnose. Talking about noob, the installer that installed my B.yond PVR don't know there is a hard disk inside the box!  When I discuss about heat problem with him, I mentioned this will shorten the lifespan of hard disk inside... He said: "got hard disk inside meh? not sure, maybe other thing...?"  |

Hi all,
Can anyone please post a link to latest Astro package pricing? Most importantly, I would like to know the price of Sports package alone. Thank you in advance! |

I just called Astro CS to subscribe the Super Pack.
I asked the lady when will the new HD channels, for example Discovery HD World be available and she told me they started this channel on 1st June. But I am already a Learning Package subscriber (plus HD service), and they never give me this channel, only change to new package offering can get this! |

QUOTE(smileguy @ Jun 7 2011, 02:53 PM) Thats right,they told me activation is Instant but I wonder wld all new channels be on air now or 11th july ! Hi smileguy, actually the lady told me it was started on 1st June... I forgot to ask that.......someone here knows ? Those Learning Mini Package subscriber do not get this channel 571, unless switch to their new package lineup.. Don't if I'm stupid or the lady? I previously subscribed to 2 Mini Packages, now my Super Pack offer 3 Mini Packages, and she never ask me which additional Mini Package to add. When I called back minutes ago, another guy act like they cannot change for me. They automatically gave me News but I rather prefer Variety lar...  Now the guy said the lady will call me back...  |

Hi all,
Using the digital out from Astro Byond to receiver, and set it to surround in the Setting page. The sound is not as good as DVD or Blu-ray or even downloaded media file (such as mkv, mp4 etc...), is this normal? Or did I missed something? |

By the way, can't anyone kind enough to help with my doubt?
I want to confirm this is the quality of Astro or the coaxial cable that I'm using are too low quality?

Added on June 24, 2011, 2:32 pm If its astro beyond"s sound over HTS then set beyond audio settings to 5.1 and try ......maybe your cable.  ..... your question is quite unclear pal ! : hmm:QUOTE(apexg2 @ Jun 24 2011, 02:45 PM) use coaxial cable...erm,mine no problem,my HTS working perfect...even im using the 'yellow' head cable...i mean video cable..hehe Sorry! Sorry! My bad....! Last night I test the sound at midnight, but this evening I turn the volume to normal level and the sound is normal... But now comes another question: When set B.yond to Dolby Digital 5.1, my TV no sound. Which means, I have to switch on HTS each time I watch Astro? Anyone know how can I set it up to always Dolby Digital 5.1 yet my TV also produce sound? I personally feel it is not so convenient to always switch on TV, Astro and HTS just to watch a short while of drama or simply some crawling insects on National Geographic... |
