Apparently Phoenix HK (SD) channels will be off the air on March 14. That means either Astro has bring HD version of it, or leave current one fully letterbox (no more 4:3 video ads). Oh wait, Astro didn't have it. tongue.gif

Off the air means? Will be broadcasted or stop broadcasting?

If force update one didn't work after 3 times a day, better put it on standy instead.

I don't think so Astro will bring in Phoenix in HD after 14th March as your mentioned because Phoenix HK already officially broadcast Phoenix Infonews,Chinese Channel and Hong Kong Channel @ new frequency @ Satellite 105.5C  4120H27500 since 1st January 2014.

Yes Phoenix HK will stop broadcast those channel on OLD frequency @ 4000H26850, but unfortunately your friend ASTRO already start using the new feed since 1st January 2014, maybe u didn't notice the picture aspect ratio are SHI.T like ever since 1st JAN ? Due to the original Satellite feed are in 16:9 ratio, but your friend ASTRO 'compress' the original 16:9 format to suit their majority customer who are still using old generation CRT TV..... and it cause those 16:9 LED/Plasma/LCD TV received SHI.T like picture quality and aspect ratio on new generation TV !!! (16:9 TV still consider new generation TV @ Malaysia ??? come on Astro we are not so out date!!! )

Here is the comparison on a exactly same TV for Phoenix Infonews Channel from SHI.T like ASTRO SD picture quality & aspect ratio against Original Phoenix HK broadcast @ Satellite 105.5C, both original 16:9 SD picture quality and HD picture quality and is FREE TO AIR channel !!
All this picture took on Today @ 17.01pm for Satellite broadcast and 17.05pm for ASTRO broadcast (Astro broadcast are 4 minutes delay compare with original broadcast)

ASTRO picture quality & compress aspect ratio sad.gif  :

THE MINISTER, ACTING IN DEFENSE OF ASTRO...AGAIN. BUT WHAT HE PURPOSELY/UNINTENTIONALLY LEFT OUT ARE:

1. THE SUBSTANTIVE AMOUNT OF REPEATS OF PROGRAMS SINCE ANTIQUITY

2. MORE THAN HALF OF ASTRO CHANNELS ARE IN-HOUSE CHANNELS

3. THE NUMBER OF ASTRO SUBSCRIBERS ARE GROWING INTENSIVELY. THIS WILL ALLOW THEM TO COVER THE COSTS

4. ASTRO IS NOT COMMERCIAL FREE. SPORTING EVENTS ARE USUALLY SPONSORED BY TM, MAXIS ETC & COMMERCIAL ADVERTISEMENTS CAN BE SEEN IN ALL CHANNELS.

They needed the money to (maybe) bribe SKMM too.

Despite the fact that in Singapore, World Cup 2014 will be made available on both MioTV & Starhub while Astro has "exclusive rights" to the event in Malaysia, it's a relief that 24 live matches & 11 delayed matches will be made available on RTM. Besides, all ASTRO subscribers can also catch 35 out of 64 matches live on ASTRO ARENA although they do not subscribe to the SPORT PACK. We're luckier than Singaporeans as FTA channels carry only opening,quarter, semi & final matches.

Nevertheless, I'm afraid that RTM World Cup feed on HYPPTV & ABNXCESS will be blacked out again.

Just like the local matches blackout.

AniPlus HD On Demand was also launch on the same day while One HD On Demand was launched 2 days ago. The On Demand are all FOC as the chs are more for catch up purpose.

Oh. Here, the VOD for ONE HD is charged RM15 per month (non-SP tier).

RM100 for 64 matches in 5 SD+5 HD? Welp, RTM got half of it (HD included). laugh.gif

Atleast it has its replacement channel, unlike the axed beTV HD. Until now, still no replacement for it. Maybe they should bring SET HD instead.

1 - Get a HDMI capture card. For me I got the Avermedia C027 DarkCrystal HD Capture Pro
2 - Bypass HDCP from Astro.
-- Easy way = get a HDMI splitter that can get rid of HDCP (example: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005HXFAR...?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
-- Tricky way = Hacked EXE (can only use this EXE to record) or hacked driver (can use any software to record)
3 - ????
4 - PROFIT!

Overall budget around RM1400, i guess? hmm.gif

Wait for Measat 3b to be fully operational sometimes after its launched. Heck, i wonder if upcoming 5 HD channels for World Cup would still retain the PQ as of 4 years ago one...?

@chuppachop Nice, atleast not delayed. rclxms.gif
