Here we will see what we need to try a Sat system.
For this trying you need some experience in internetworking under Linux
(as from
Net-HOWTO ) and a very little of practical experience with parabolic antenna
and sat systems (you should be able to pointing out your antenna, with right
angles).
We need:
Parabolic antenna, also taken from an analog system.
Digital converter to be placed in the middle of the antenna.
Receiver card DVB compatible.
a PC to connect to.
Here you need a
driver for the DVB card working under your O.S. (Linux, Windows or other).
right setting to use it
external application in some cases (such as VPN-PPTP client for ISP like
Netsystem or Starspeeder).
For the software under Linux you can found the Siemens DVB driver at
Linux TV Project .
There is also some Video software used to implement TV reception:
Under Windows
MultiDec
MultiDec 6.6b (free with source code)
TPREdit
TPREdit (for Technotrend)
WinTV DVBs
Hauppauge or
Technotrend (for Siemens compatible card, Hauppauge, Technotrend, Technisat,
etc... )
WinDVB2000
WinDVB2000 (about 19$).
Under Linux
gVideo is an application included in Siemens driver
Vdr Video Recoder (good for watch TV)
