[WTA] No sound from Home Theatre/Astro Byond/TV.

dobbod — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 10:05:54 +0800

1. Astro Byond
2. Sharp Aquos LED TV 40 inch
3. Panasonic Home Theatre:
- 1 HDMI DVD player,
- 1 Subwoofer + 2 Speakers + 2 Surrounds.

Hi all, Recently I bought a Panasonic Home Theatre (HT) set and then I tried to connect it to my Astro Byond and TV. I can play and watch DVD movie with no problem from the HT, but unfortunately when I choose to combine it with Astro Byond to watch any program on TV, no sound at all from the HT. Luckily, there is still sound from the TV when I turn off the HT. I can also see there is a notification about something like "Aquos sound" when I increase/decrease the HT/TV volume, bu no sound at all.

The connection between the 3 devices are as follow:

Byond --> TV using HDMI cable
HT --> TV using HDMI cable
Byond --> HT using component cable

Could anyone please let me know if there are something wrong with my settings/connection? Or there is anything I missed which lead to the sound problem. I've read the manuals for all the 3 devices, tried to set here and there but still can't solved the problem, I still can't hear any sound from the HT when watching any program from Astro Byond.

Thank you in advance for any comment, guide, helps...

[HELP] Partitions missing in XP

dobbod — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 13:19:26 +0800

Hi, I'm using Windows XP SP2, and I also have Windows Vista installed (Dual Boot). I've only one hardisk, WD 320 GB Sata.

I need some space and I decided to remove Vista from my computer. So, I booted into XP, and deleted the Vista patition through Computer Management>Disk Management (right click and choose the delete option on Vista partition).

Then, I tried to restart my PC, but unfortunately, it can't. I've no other choice but to install back the Vista. Now, I can boot into XP and Vista. The problem is my other 2 partitions are gone. I checked, and found out that there are now more free spaces. Arrgghhh..

Please help me. There are a lot of movies, MP3s in those 2 'missing' partitions. Can I get back those data?

Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi, I'm planning to go to shops at Jalan Pasar this Sunday 21st, want to look for some karaoke stuffs there. But I do not know whether they are open or not. I've checked with few members but none of them know. I stay at Shah Alam, and if I go there this Sunday but not many of the shops are open, will be waste of time.

Could anyone, who has went there before or live/work near Jalan Pasar.... could you please confirm on this? Thanks in advanse for your help.

How to insert menu/list when burn MP3

dobbod — Mon, 22 Dec 2008 13:46:48 +0800

Hi,

Recently, I burned some MP3 songs into CD-R, so that it can be played in my DVD player.
I'm wondering, if there is a way to make

1. A list/menu of burned MP3 songs appear on the TV screen.
2. From the list/menu, we can choose what song to be played first, or we can set it randomly played.

Does anyone have any idea?
Thank you so much.

Battle Realms: Mini-map prob Help

dobbod — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 10:59:47 +0800

Hi there, I just installed my old favourite game Battle Realms (Winter of The Wolf) into my new desktop PC. I noticed that the mini-map is completely blank when I'm playing this game, as shown in bottom right of pic below. Previously, I've played this game in my old desktop, and everything was okay. I've also tried searching for the solution through the internet, but no clue. I'm using onbord grapic (Nvidia Geforce 8200), windows xp SP2, all driver installed correctly (no 'yellow question mark' appeared in Device Manager).

Could anyone please help me. I love playing this game.
Thank you in advance.
