QUOTE(chuppachop @ Dec 3 2012, 08:30 PM) @ Qash-M - nice! Animax HD? Hope its soon.  Yeah, since most of SPENA channels (except SET Asia & Animax) are in HD Update: Ch.100 is no longer in service. Good decision. This post has been edited by Qash-M: Dec 4 2012, 11:24 AM

It's good to know that most of the HD channels now got subtitles. But I think the subtitles are like Chipsmore. At one point, it appears (especially if the dialog is short and simple). At other time, subtitle hilang. It's a bit of a drag, because it's the more 'complex' sentences are the ones that I would need the subtitle for. Huhu

Either the timing of subs have to be fixed or current b.yond firmware have to be updated...

^ I do not think it's the timing issue. Timing issue would mean that the subtitles are either appearing faster/slower than the video.
Seems to me that the team entrusted to do the subtitles are not doing a very good job. They tend to skip dialogues, especially the harder ones!
I think they need to get the team doing the CSI series, as CSI Series subtitles are done rather well.

QUOTE(leftist @ Dec 5 2012, 06:10 PM) maybe rm50 not include HD service??  Got. But it also depends on the subscription your main decoder is on. I'm on Superpack 3 and the monthly fee is RM164.30. I have the second decoder (multi-room) and it is only RM50 (RM53 after adding on the tax) and the second decoder comes with everything my main decoder has (all the Superpack 3 channels, HD service, PVR service etc.)

QUOTE MEASAT-3B is expected to be launched into orbit in 2014 and will have 18 transponders. Once MEASAT-3B enters commercial service, Astro expects to be able to expand its broadcasting capacity to 180 SD and 102 HD channel. https://docs.google.com/open?id=1b9TiJqX6IO...RBLQQyhuQCfio8u102... Now only 23. If only that means there's Animax Asia somewhere in the HD count... This post has been edited by Qash-M: Dec 5 2012, 08:29 PM
