Call the Time Astro IPTV support... may be a problem with the IPTV channel in the fiber optic cable.

There are two channels in the cable - one for your Internet connection, and another for the Astro IPTV stream.

I connect the HDMI out from my Byond PVR to a generic Monoprice HDMI splitter, which is then output simultaneously to my living room TV and my Asus WiCast transmitter.

My Asus WiCast receiver is connected to my bedroom TV via HDMI.

I also have a cheap China-brand IR blaster connected to my Byond PVR, so that I can control it from the bedroom.

I don't remember the exact amount as this was done two years ago. If I remember correctly, the HDMI splitter cost me around RM80++ while the WiCast was around RM900. The IR blaster was purchased via Lelong, around RM30++ I think.

Happens to my old Pace PVR from time to time, but it happens maybe once a month (or less), so I am not bothered about it as it does not impact my settings or recordings after it boots back up.

I believe such matters should be software issue. But from my experience, Astro is quite generous with replacing the boxes. When the hard disk in my previous PVR died, they didn't even bother troubleshooting. They just came over and swapped it out, and activated the new PVR to my smartcard.
