Hello - some advice needed, my current setup is this:
Skystar1 PCI in a Shuttle SK43G PC connected to a Sky Minidish pointing to Astra 19.2.
I live in Manchester and at the moment I can get excellent reception from FTA channels using the standard Technotrend viewer and decoded channels using S2emu 1.26 in ProgDVB. The only problem is that the decoded channels sometimes lock up the PC after watching for about an hour. I decided to try DVBViewer instead but the Technotrend version won't detect the Skystar1. Has anyone got this card working with the Pro version?
Also I would like to split the output from the dish to another PC running a USB DVB-S box. Do these produce anywhere near the quality of the SkyStar1? Are they completely compatible with the usual software? Any recommendations for brands/models?
Thanks Matt
