    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.

    MP1 MP2 Audio/Music output not stereo. 2.41, 2.5, 1.38.3 DE
    I don't know about MP2 but as you said you tried MP1 too, how is the MP music config ? MP(1) will only use LAV if you select "Internal DirectShow player" as music output, but then you lose gapless playback. If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...

    MP1 MP2 [solved] Fresh MP2 install issues (no DVD sound / LAV filters) DE
    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...
