Hm mind enlighten me as to the reason for updates?
I've never update any firmware/software, so am not sure of the benefits

The obvious change that I can see on this new update is the VOD features... Those with Byond PVR (int HDD) and Standard Byond with (ext hdd) are able to purchase the VOD titles by just connecting their STB to Unifi or Streamyx router. But it seems that most of the VOD titles are really outdated and for me, it's not worth to burn-out your RM8 for this service...

Exactly,nothing great,I thought they had the nearest channel feature but dissappointed,say u press 841 it goes to 831,this was in those old decorders,very handy for the old who cannot memorise every channel number. about VOD above your rm8 u hv to pay data charges to download which i think sucks!

i want to know if i bring my decoder to indonesia, can i still see any astro program if i find some installer to fix some generic brand satellite. im not sure if this is possible.if already subscribe and have to pay for 2 years in the contract ,then suddenly boss transfer me to work in indon, i wonder whether this option can work?

anyone know this?

if u going to indonesia why astro? u are free to choose from more then a dozen there !  call astro pay penalty and close a/c

Truths. Indovision has everything assteruk has, and has things assteruk doesn't have because assteruk greedy and $#!*headed - didn't realize and don't care all the non-football programs that people really want have changed licensees and no longer on the channels they have- if it's not football, they don't give a $#!*. Sumore use S band, not prone to rain fade. And no 5 minute delay on news channels.

Just throw away assteruk and grab Indovision as soon as you land back in Indonesia.

i think co have indovision but i d want the dynasty package from astro . i think chinese channel is not many.

If u want chinese channels go for Skynindo, there's about 16 available. Plus their decoder can watch any FTA channels broadcast by any satellite.

when wld such a day come for us in malaysia

Those with Assthrow PVR with new firmware updated, you can plug in a network cable into your PVR set and IPTV is fully functional.

Note to CCC on latest software:
Watermark on left-hand corner will highlight that it is Version 7.0²
the release of latest software will be rolled out to
PACE B.yond PVR on 31/5
Kaon B.yond box on 4/6 (impacting Kaon B.yond box + ext HDD)
Technicolour B.yond box on 11/6 (impacting Technicolour B.yond box + ext HDD)

The day assteruk loses their monopoly...

i don't care about iptv at the moment, just want bigger n legible fonts back..

Hi. i'm trying to inquire on how to update astro to the latest firmware/software?

before you go and say these --> "put your astro in standby-mode and then unlug your power and etc etc etc ...", that's not the answer i'm looking for becoz there's another alternative way to do that, simply by pressing the buttons.

reason is coz i was at my friend's house when as astro installer came and checked his astro, and i was surprised on the way he did the "software updates" just by pressing some buttons .. i know 1 of it is "standby" , but can't see the others.

so i'm trying to understand if there's anybody who knows of this method ? i'm trying to update my astro b.yond decoder.

thanks!

anybody got this problem or? when i first switch on last time it goes to channel but now it goes to the home page which got the menu n small box of channel.and by the im still using a crt tv...hehe...so now the banner sucks..the words small n not clear...
