Is it true the dish type doesnt matter?
Reason i ask is becos am living in the condo. I subscribed to HD eventho i know i wont get the HD channel just to get to use the HDMI connection (read it somewhere i need to subscribed the HD to be able to turn on the HDMI port).
Am currently using the B-yond decoder but why cant receive HD channel. Just blank.
Thanks!

QUOTE(smileguy @ Jan 11 2012, 04:33 PM) ALIGNMENT OF DISH MATTERS A LOT TO RECIVE HD CHANNELS,A RELIGHNMENT MAY BE NEEDED IF U STILL CANNOT GET HD RECEPTION.BTW NO HD SUBSCRIPTION NO HD PORT !
Added on January 11, 2012, 4:38 pmMAYBE SLGHTLY BETTER ,RAIN FADE STILL COMES IN,  Ah... ok. But still.... in other words the condo just need to do the dish realignment for the upgrade? I thot they need to change the dish and also the cable on the riser. And then again i cant help but to wonder do they need to hack my wall to install a new concealed wiring form riser to the wall port? Any experience astro installer here can give me the answer?

QUOTE(chikana @ Jan 11 2012, 09:36 PM) Your's was connected to centralized dish. Astro/Installer might installed/configured something on the centralized LNB to block you to switch to high frequency band (where all the HD channels sit). This is done to prevent existing astro customer who does not have Byond decoder to lost the service once you tune to HD channel since there are sharing with you the centralized dish. Solution is to discuss with the building mgmt for the i staller to install your own dish. Great!... thanks for the xplanation . That just might be the reason of the problem am having since i upgrade to byond decoder and HD. I have to replace my decoder about 4 times. Becos sometimes there is no video, no sound and it is not functioning at all. Been calling them (Astro) and all they did was replacing the decoder over and over again. Maybe becos of this LNB frequency thingy. |
