Astro TV ~ Work Around with Busy Lifestyle & Astro B.yond PVR + Astro View App

As full time working couples, TV schedule is less relevant now due to long working hours.


A) DOWNLOAD?
At the same time, you may be too lazy to torrent download videos for consumption even though you have high speed broadband.  Reason being:

  1. You do not have a media server to store video files
  2. You are lazy to constantly search for latest video files
  3. You do not wish to manage these downloaded files (clean up to free up space)

B) STREAM?
Of course, you may search and stream from some random websites after several failure attempts (spam websites).


C) ASTRO B.YOND PVR
Many do not know Astro has REMOTE RECORD functions.
  • Requirement:
    • Have Astro B.yond PVR Decoder (PVR is FREE with SuperPack subscriptions)
  • The Magic 
    • Just keep your Astro B.yond PVR Decoder always ON
