[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1103133, member: 330868"] As others have said, the difficulty will be with watching subscription channels (like RMC Sport) through the computer. I think the most straightforward setup for you would be to get a Fransat card. Fransat offers the 25 TNT channels for free via satellite, and also lets you subscribe to RMC Sport for 19 € per month through the same card - [URL='https://www.fransat.fr/rmc-sport/']Fransat - RMC Sport[/URL] When you get the Fransat card, you choose whether to buy it with a satellite receiver (which I guess you could connect to your monitor via HDMI), or a CAM (module) that slots into the CI+ slot on a compatible TV with integrated satellite tuner, meaning that an additional box isn't required. My recommendation would be to get the CAM and buy a cheap TV with an integrated satellite tuner, unless you don't mind the receiver taking over your second monitor. :) As [USER=313486]@mikeisyou[/USER] says, you'll need to input a French address to activate and subscribe to SFR Sport. If you're in the Southern half of England, the satellite used (Eutelsat 5WB at 5°W) is very strong and only needs a 60cm-80cm satellite dish. [/QUOTE]
