I am using centralized satellite for my Astro on my condo. Suddenly the message show no satellite signal.

So I switch off the Astro Beyond recorder. Now the decorder keep on showing blinking red light and cannot go to standby. No matter how I press the decorder will not show green light, because the decorder led keep blinking red light, stop for a while, then blinking again.

What is the issue?

Confirmed not centralized satellite bcoz only me having issue.

Would it be possible the power adapter problem? Or the decorder problem?

Reset already, still the same 😭

Reset no cure...

This is the sequence... red light appear for 5 seconds, then blank/blackout for 5 seconds, then red light blinking, blackout 5 seconds, then red light blinking... the sequence then repeated itself

It just failed to go to standby mode... that is what made me think maybe it's the power adapter

I've encountered once for TM modem, one of the light cannot be on, TM guy just came in and replace the power adapter, everything going good again

By the way, I've tested decoder with only the power adapter(no hdmi, no satellite cable, etc)... the same sequence appear

Anyone try this before, only power adapter with decoder? Is the red light blinking like the above? Or stable red light appear? Anyone willing to help experiment(power cable with decoder only) and let me know what is happening for normal unit

Anyone getting new decoder, made in Thailand, MiTV china brand as Astro 2nd decoder?

I got this new stb as a replacement for the old Samsung decoder.

Keep giving me error 60 for hdmi cable issue... after changing new hdmi cable, it comes back after use 5 days or so.

Thought tv issue, change new tv also the same.

This new stb is really crap!

Not sure if you can see from this photo

It is much smaller compared to the Samsung one

And if you switch channel, it takes a while before the picture appeared, so poor!

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?

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?

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

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

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!
