[QUOTE="andysh, post: 156742, member: 52403"] Hey, I am new to this scene, and I am just wondering for a few things. 1. Is it possible to use MediaPortal to control Sky NZ (Sorry if this has been said somewhere in the forums, I did search). Like with some special DVB-S card that you can put your sky CAM card in. Also if this is possible, how many channels can you watch at one time with sky? 2. Is it possible to have two LNB’s pointing at the sky satellite (D1 is it?) so that you are able to watch sky and Freeview at the same time with no problems since they are on horizontal and vertical things? 3. Will you need two (besides the sky DVB-S) DVB-S cards so then you are able to watch all the Freeview channels at the same time? Is this ever going to change over time, such as are there going to be more than two frequencies later on or is it going to stay like this? 4. Also is it possible to watch channel seven and SBS off the C1 satellite? I have done some searching and it says that it is encrypted, just wondering if this is correct. That’s about all I have I think, thanks for your answers in advance, and I hope that these questions might be some that other people have and it helps them. ~andysh [/QUOTE]
