[QUOTE="tricky911t, post: 536271, member: 296662"] Hi Basically I'm looking for recommendations for Windows PC Cards that can control motorised dishes and comes with a Software Development Kit (SDK). I need the SDK so I can write my own interface to control the dish and record the tv channel. I'm trying to build a system where my PC is not only the Sat Receiver so I can watch Freesat and whatever else is out there but will also be my PVR as well. The aim is the PC will sit there recording all programmes I'm interested so I can view them from the download library so if I'm interested in motorsport, it will move the dish to the correct position and start recording the channel the motorsport is on at the predetermined time without me having to do anything. Then when I get time to watch tv rather than watch what is on, I have a selection of programmes matching my interests that the PC has recorded for me. In addition any recommendations for other equipment which is known to work with any recommended card will be welcome as well. There isnt a financial limit but as a few friends and relatives have expressed a desire to have the same system in their homes so they can do away with Sky I would like to keep the equipment costs reasonable where possible.
