    Hi there,

    How are you planning on doing this? The only way of really achieving this is to buy a DVB-S2 card (any will do it) and then get a card reader for your PC. However this is against your terms and conditions for your sky contract so details of how to do this are not readily available on the forum as clearly no one want't so encourage this sort of activity.
