Well, it's fullscreen alright. But only for 30 seconds, and with that "press OK to subscribe or up/down to change channel" message permanently visible.

When you tune into a channel you haven't subscribed, there will be a message saying press "OK" to preview.

After the 30 seconds preview, the screen goes completely blank and the message is changed to press OK to subscribe.
oic....thanks! This should be how the service providers should do......instead of showing just a black screen. 8-)

Cheers.

That's pretty good!

Even though the prompt on Starhub says "preview" available, there's actually none. Lousy.

There is actually a second prompt confirming the subscription......my elderly family member accidentally pressed and suscribed to a channel.....when I explain to the customer service officer, they refused to waive off.

Starhub user interface has no language option.....you are stuck with the English menu. 8-(

Most people(including me) do it the old fashion way....call up and subscribe...Starhub box is crap. Ha ha...

Nice Christmas bug of Disney XD......the program may have aired before on their other SD channels....they may try to contain cost by not re-ordering HD materials of the same program....all about trying to save $$. 8-)

KIX probably celebrating 12 days of Christmas.

Preview will be starting at noon for both singtel n Starhub. Can only enjoy when back fr town tonite. smile.gif
