[QUOTE="lean_moha, post: 47598, member: 179243"] Thanks Kalamar. Very insightfull. I too found MyTheatre to be the best though like you said remote control support is not all that good and despite Mytheatre being designed with the TwinHan chipset with onboard CAM interface in mind Pinnacle didn't provide the USB remote reciever interface that the TwinHan card they copied uses. So the Mytheatre guys told me to use v3.19 (a Beta update to 3.12 onwards) which has full remote support. Only thing is it closes itself at times but I'm hoping that's just down to signal issues and the fact I extended the lead from the dish by 20m using 2-way female plug thing. So the DiSEqC thing is the stuff that handles motorised systems right? if so that's fine as my PCTV card supports that and the satelite finding software that comes with it has an annimation of upto 2 dishes (with upto 4 LNBs) rotating from one side to another. You recomended a Winegard dish and SG-2100 motor roughly how much is all that? I mean I'm not in much of a rush to get my system motorised and don't really think need more than 90cm for now at least. In any case I will do a lot of shoping around to get them as cheap as possible. Thankfully till then when my PC becomes the complete multimedia system I want it to I guess I can settle for broadband internet TV stations and there are appearantly loads about only problem is finding them, there's the ghosting and pixel problem at fullsreen with some, need loads of differnet software mediaplayer being the best I've come accros and you can't record. Oh and I've not found one that shows premiership and Champions league football other than bananatv.com just yet then again the season is over!! [/QUOTE]
