QUOTE(smileguy @ Oct 13 2013, 06:07 AM) My opinion only.For what asstro gives out the cheapest HDMI cable will suffice..........as they say rubbish in rubbish out,so use those super cables on other media players/3D , but its a waste on astro decorders!  Mostly upscaled stuffs!As far astro is concerned my credit goes to my TV and AVR which are doing a great job on the PQ  HDMI cable doesn't matters because the signal it transfers is in Digital.

QUOTE(Blackthorn @ Oct 13 2013, 12:23 AM) oic.. is it confirmed? thanks man.. coz i'm a bit confused  because some astro seller or A/V promoter said better image with HDMI 1.4 cable..  Check more about it hereBasically the higher it goes, the more features it has. Like HDMI 1.4 it has 4K support and 2.0 has 4K support at 60fps and some better audio quality. Pretty useless for us if we don't have the right equiqment and content so yeah. Use the cable that comes with your decoder or buy some longer generic cables if you need longer length. No need to buy all that "GOLD Plated" or "High Speed Ethernet" or "3D" support if you only use it for your astro. hehe Just my two cents.

QUOTE(Blackthorn @ Oct 13 2013, 01:11 PM) are you sure HDMI doesn't matter? if not why when we are using co-axial cable..RCA cable.. it did make a different? the image is superior.. it transfer in digital directly from SAT.. but our equipment to the decoder ..also need to be use with right cable...right? maybe HDMI 1.4 is not supported by the current Decoder..just like you mentioned..not the right equipment. after all 1.4 only for higher resolution..and higher speed.. 3d..etc.. btw Gold Plated is a plus to have ..for any typed of cables.. even in small accessories such as earphones..because gold is the best conductive for electricity and corrosion-resistant. anyway, im also concerned about the cheap HDMI cable which they provided .. what version anyone knows? if already version 1.3.. no need to buy lor.. huhuhu.. version 1.3 i think la, couldn't be so bad until its 1.0 or 1.1? Doesn't happens to HDMI, you search google. Only analog signals(composite, component, coaxial and etc) will need quality cables. Distance does matter though but that's another story..

QUOTE(rudit @ Oct 13 2013, 10:14 PM) Can see in my first post..i actually really dont care about the UI, but changes are still better. For some reason i had some problem that my info blank for all channels..tv guide also empty, so cant really use the PVR function. I called astro support to report, and she teach me to do the auto update thingy..wallah, finish update, came this new UI, bugs also fixed. If not for the case, i also wouldnt know. For some reason, i tried on another, dont get the same result. Anyone from astro can clarify this? for certain decoder only? I think they accidentally released the Beta version which still has bugs as you stated bro.

QUOTE(cyew86 @ Oct 17 2013, 10:38 AM) I am not sure, but does that mean if I subscribe to ASTRO IPTV, I would need: 1. 1x fiber optic connection (connected to either Unifi or Maxis) 2. 2x F-connector satellite cables for 1 B.yond box, and 1 PVR (so there will be two satellite dishes) Please let me know if I were wrong. Thanks. 1. Fiber optic connect to your BTU-Router- Assteruk IPTV(It will also need to RG6 cables connect to it for some reasons) 2) U need A dish with quad LNB as one cable will be running to your Byond Box and two more to your PVR.

[attachmentid=3689049] Oh yeah chuppachop, maybe you take some screenshot of Sun schedule at 11pm for comparison. It's so unfair to Malaysia Citizens. Like History HD isn't HD, HBO isn't HD and both channels doesn't broadcast certain programs in out country.
