i see... bcoz the shoppe one product title "Belkin High-Speed HDMI to HDMI Cable with Ethernet 4K 2 Meter"

may i know what is the 4k in the title means?

good but kinda late..

some are moving towards UHD.. astro just slowly upgrading some channel to HD

Yea, shopee link is HDMI 1.4......10.2Gbps up to HD 1080p resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels)
My cables are (AV10168bt2M-BLK)........HDMI 2.0......18Gbps ........ UHD 2160p resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels or 4096 x 2160 pixels)

However,
HDMI 1.4 supported 4K resolutions, yes, but only at 24 or 30 frames per second. That works fine for movies, but isn't useful for gaming and many TV broadcasts, which require 50 or 60 fps. Also, HDMI 1.4 limited 4K Ultra HD content to 8-bit color, though it is capable of 10- or 12-bit color.

Oof.

Who watching those channels..
Latino drama is so yesterday... Now is Kpop culture.. So better add more Korean language channel 😎😎

Currently using Astro with HDTV only.

Can the HDMI 2.0 cable be used for HDTV?

Trying to future proof the cable

Or would it be better to get a 24k gold-plated HDMI 1.4 cable for my existing setup?

Getting ready with cables .....Wow !! Wonder when the new box and services will be launched!

Supose to lunch next month.

Help guys, I am going gila soon!

I'm using centralized satellite. One month ago, my Astro suddenly cannot be booted up.

Replace with a new Astro decoder, now no longer Samsung, but China brand, made in Thailand decoder given by Astro.

With the new decoder, I am having two issues:-
- sudden lost of sound
- hdmi error 60

As I've a tv box, I've tested for a week or so, and both having lost of sound issue.

As such, just a few days ago, I've change my tv motherboard.

Lost of sound is solved with the change of new tv motherboard.

But the hdmi error 60 remained. Ironically, my tv box has no hdmi issue at all.

Assuming this should be Astro decoder issue, today get Astro to change to new decoder and new hdmi cable.

After watching for a few hours, the hdmi error 60 appeared again.

The hdmi error will go away when I switch off either Astro decoder or tv power adapter, and switch on again.

But this hdmi error 60 will appear intermittently, whenever it like.

When this error appeared, I got no problem watching sd channel. All HD channel will be blank screen with sound only.

What should I do now? I am clueless!

Should I buy 24k gold plated hdmi to test? Or switch hdmi port?

Could it be due to centralized satellite cable issue?

My friend staying in the same condo, different block and unit is having the same hdmi issue, but not frequent, only once or twice per month.

Previously using Astro Samsung decoder, there is lost of audio n video intermittently on certain HD channel(some channel like 300 n 306 can watch, but 332 n 532 cannot watch), but SD channel has no problem. When this happened, I go to stb diagnostics, there is lost of signal, it appeared 65%, then 0% within seconds. Switch off Astro decoder or tv power cable not able to solve this issue. The problem will go away itself after a few minutes while i switch to watch sd channel.

As for my current hdmi error 60 issue, I go stb diagnostics, no lost of signal, signal is stable.

I do not know if it's related, but just telling everything I observed and tested.

Please help

i am curious.

pls state... what tv and tv box u have?

tv is sharp hdtv

tv box is tanix 3 (capable of 4K)

Astro stb is the lastest China brand given by Astro

Tv box n tv no problem only Astro problem

i tend to agree with u.

tv's aren't a problem usually since astro feed is 1080i only.
and hdmi cables are a lesser issue, ven cheap ones can handle such streams.

u probably got to find astro fellas, change decoder.

boss, change d, this is the second new unit in one month

Possible for both new decoder problem?

Astro fellas no clue of what is the issue



So I was thinking if it has to do with centralized satellite cable, as my friend staying same condo different block also facing same issue, but only once or twice a month... whereas mine is two to three times a day, tak boleh tahan!
