- Posted by Rod S on November 18th, 2005
Hello!
Did someone try this? And does it really work?
http://www.technotrend.com/english/d.../download.html
TTDvbS4WinMCE.zip (800KByte) DVB-S solution (for FTA channels at the moment)
to use with Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 (11.10.2005)
- for all TT-budget DVB-S cards
TT_MCE_Tools.zip (1.55MByte) CA solution for Microsoft Windows XP Media
Center Edition 2005 for all TechnoTrend DVB budget cards with CI Interface
(16.11.2005)

This looks promising, if I'm not mistaken they claim to have all their DVB
budget cards (T/S/C variants) working under MCE (faking to be DVB-T cards)
and also supporting encrypted channels through their CI add-on. As I'm on
DVB-C cable, I'd be very much tempted to go ahead and buy their DVB-C card.
If anyone has any experience with these cards I'd be interested to hear
about them too!

I have got the Technotrend Budget DVB-S cards TT S-1300 & TT S-1500 working with
MCE with the Free To Air channels at 28.2E. Works very well once set up. The
software fakes being a DVB-T card but the frequencies given are for Germany
which include VHF which isn't supported for DVB-T in the UK. To get around this
I set my location in MCE to Germany & set up the EPG & then patched the registry
with the headend ID for Sky Digital in the UK. Then did a EPG download & then
mapped the EPG data to the correct to the correct channels.
