Freesat launch is excellent news and it looks like they're anticipating channel 4 switch over by the end of the year.
I'm a bit gutted about the Blackgold 6 in 1 which I was going to purchase to drive this through MediaPortal. It seems that the card isn't DVB-S2 standard compliant as previously stated on the website.
BBC HD is DVB-S, however, BBC have said they want to move to S2. ITV HD trial has been DVB-S, but channel 4 HD is broadcast on DVB-S2, so when that comes to freesat who knows whether the 6 in 1 will be able to display it.
Still looking out for the perfect DVB-S2 tuner. |
