    E2streamer working on android tv

    This is an app that works with Linux satellite receivers, especially xtrend et10000 Transcoding receivers. I tried to setup a friend of mines Sony android TV so that they could stream directly from my et10000 receiver. I sideloaded a few different apps but you needed a mouse input for them...

    Al Jaz & ART Arab...

    On the foreign satellite section of boards.ie a few posters have reported art channels clearing with al jazeera viaccess cards and vice versa. I have an al jazeera Irdeto card which does not clear art at the moment. They reported clearing art sport channels but not the showtime channel available...

    There are no silly questions (except this one): Sky in Austria?

    you will have no problem picking up most of the sky package with an adverage dish (80cm should get astra 2a,2b and eurobird) but astra 2d will require a much bigger dish and this is where rte, bbc and itv are. looking at lyngsat you might need something as big as 2m to guarentee unbroken...

    Three Phase generator designs ?

    from the info above it looks like a 2 phase unit. the cables supplying it would have to be at least 10 square mm to run it directly from a single phase 220/230v supply at the highest output setting but if you had access to a 380/400v supply (voltage between 2 phases on a 3 phase supply) you...

    Powering the lights in a powercut...

    i am an electrical contractor based in ireland, but i have done the city and guilds exams iee 16th edition. most lighting circuits are not wired in a ring, i have never come across one in 15 years. socket circuits in kitchens would be, as it effectively doubles the size of the cable to each...

    Digit Alb - what's it's like?

    i had it last year and the reception was ok, they dont show as much football as art so i am going for one of them instead. they do have 5 good film channels and the rest of the package is good. overall its very good value as a total package, but i wanted art as they show every prem game live...

    Zapped through the aerial cable!!!

    you could seperately earth your system using an earth rod directly into the ground and you would not be affected by the 50hz mains hum but you would probably be creating an attractive path for a lightning strike. insulating the connection point on the lnb very well would reduce the chance of...
