3D TV Set To Arrive

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

A 3D television is a television that employs techniques of 3D presentation, such as stereoscopic capture, multi-view capture, or 2D plus depth, and a 3D display

In laymans terms, did you watch Avatar in the theaters and did they give you this huge pair of glasses to wear while watching it? Well if you felt like you were so close to purple people and was afraid you almost got kissed, Thats 3D!

Now imagine having one of those at home? Imagine watching football and the feel of the ball coming so close to it you end up heading a wall thinking its the ball :P , Next month thats going to hit our shores! (more…)

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Byond is the brand spanking new introduction by Astro providing Malaysia their first taste High Definition tv (even though other parts of the world have had it for a while, in fact are already experiencing 3D viewing). While Astro have invested apparently millions in the roll out, they must have forgotten about paying someone to update their website.

Byond Remote – No Sound Control!

Sunday, February 7th, 2010

So every new product has its bugs. I enjoy watching my favourite games and movies on HD but the Byond remote control simply wont let me control the volume! That means, that its stuck at a level(which i hope isnt max, cause its pretty low) so i have to control it via the tv.

I thought that it was only me but after some checking apparently its a issue right now with those who use Byond.

Hopefully it gets fixed soon and im keen to see what the aps button & how to use the very tempting usb slots are for! :)

Do you have the same issue?

Byond Has Arrived!

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Finally i received my Astro b.yond decoder, dish and remote control together with the new byond activated card which will give me the HD service which i have been waiting for.

Only after 1 day after my last call i received a call from the Astro Byond team who gave me a call run down on the terms and conditions

Astro HD

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

astrodalamThere was a article on The Star yesterday indicating that Astro will go High Definition real soon! This is definitely good news for everyone as finally the HD Ready, HD and FULL HD tv owners can enjoy the quality they should be getting from the satellite tv provider.

To enjoy the HD experience there will be some upgrading required from the consumers as well in form of the satellite dish and decoder which  will have a HDMI connection, composite outputs, Ethernet port, an USB port and even a digital audio output for 5.1-channel surround sound audio.

I have been waiting for this to happen for a while now and hopefully ill get a chance to test it out and update on the quality that is in line. Singapore’s Singtel has HD Tv via mIo so i look forward to compare both soon :)

Astro Sports Package Price Hike!

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

th_97294_astro_122_996lo

I received a letter from Astro today informing me of the new price of the Astro Sports package and its gone up!! I currently subscribe to the Astro Family Package(default) ,Variety, Learning & Sports and pay RM 59.95. With the new price hike now i have to pay RM 71.95, which is a RM12 price hike!

Globally the cost of sports content has escalated substantially. At Astro, we ave absorbed these cost over the past years and have managed to keep our sports package at the lowest possible price in the region. However we are unable to continue to absorbing the cost increases, For us to continue offering premium international and local sporting programmes, a revision of the Astro Sports package is unavoidable.

Now the best part, (how kind of Astro) (more…)
