Hi team,
I have been relatively successful in getting TechniSat PCI/Media Portal to run off my Sky dish and pull down the FreeView programmes.
I have also installed a WinTV PVR 150 card and can record from the Sky box for the channel currently on.
I'm interested to know what I have to look out for if I use a Satellite PCTV program; which purports to provide Super14 Rugby live.
How does this work? Is it streamed across the internet; therefore chewing bandwidth and usage?
If so how much usage will I expect to get through in an hour?
Can I record through a scheduler like MP?
This may be the way to wean us off Sky for good.
Having said this, I find that PRIME TV has a reasonable movie selection which I can't get to with MP, or at least I haven't worked out how to do it other than an analogue connection to the STB. Any suggestions?
MP 1.0 RC3 / TechniSat PCI / WinTVI PVR 150 / WinXP P4 3.2Ghz 1GB RAM 500GB ATI 9800GT/
Cheers
