Just to share my experience of installing Astro Byond PVR decoder in condominium
Problems you might face a) You are using centralized dish b) There is only one point in living room (and another point in bedroom) c) Your PVR machine need two coaxials cables, and you are not allow to install individual dish You can use PVR machine with the following options a) using Stacker-Destacker (Most popular options) - refer http://www.parabolic.co.uk/catalog/images/...r-destacker.jpg http://www.cyberselect.co.uk/range/1293 - The astro installer need to order this item from Astro, and it cost RM300 - they will install a unit in "Riser Room" near the staircase, and a unit behind our astro machine - Some management might not allow you to install the device in Riser room - The signal might not clear b) using a splitter, to split the coaxial cable from your wall point - refer http://www.audioshowcase.com/hires/201-242.jpg - this might be a temporary solution - Only around RM50 for this item - we can watch both normal & HD channels if we are NOT recording - If you are recording one HD channel, you CANT watch SD channel, but you CAN watch & record second HD channel - If you are recording one SD channel, you CAN watch & record another SD channel, and CAN watch another HD channel (if i remember correctly) c) If your condominium has two wall points (one in living room, and one in bedroom) - You can pull the cable from bedroom to your living room, so that you will have two coaxial cable for your PVR - I am using this method, this method doesnt guarantee work in your condo, please buy coaxial cable RG-6/U to try it (only around RM1.xx per meter) Anything please PM me as i seldom check the thread Good luck This post has been edited by playoff: Nov 30 2011, 04:24 PM |
