    Looking for a Receiver with...

    Thanks for the reply. I found this too, but it's not an official TNTSat or Fransat receiver so it won't work.

    Looking for a Receiver with...

    Hello all, Is there either a TNTSat or Fransat receiver with both DVB-S/DVB-S2 and DVB-T tuners? Thank you.

    BIS TV April 2011

    OK this is weird. Simply by turning my receiver off, then switching it back on the problem (for the moment) has now gone. Even though the channels are broadcasted over DVB-S2, I wonder if during the day they're broadcasted in SD quality and in the evening HD quality?

    BIS TV April 2011

    Hello, I seem to be having reception problems ever since BIS TV has gone HD. I purchased a new CAM which supports MPEG4 compression and altered the TP settings as follows: Frequency: 11681V Symbol Rate: 27500 Modulation: DVB-S2 8PSK Pilots: Off FEC: 3/4 Frequency: 12692H Symbol Rate: 27500...

    Fransat/French TNTSAT

    The only way realistically to get round the IP limitation would be some form of VPN service.

    Mvision HD300 Combo Review?

    That's correct I do not use a motor. I just have three LNBs statically positioned and a standard aerial. I have since upgraded the firmware to 4.52 and along with the hard drive it's been absolutely fine. My only criticism is programming recordings can be a little complicated. Specifying the...

    Mvision HD300 Combo Review?

    After using the receiver after a week I've had the chance to use the USB PVR :) Unfortunately even with the latest firmware v4.48 recording on a USB memory stick was fine, but playing back just freezes the receiver until I remove the memory stick! I then tried an external 100GB 5400rpm hard...

    Mvision HD300 Combo Review?

    I bought myself two MVision HD-300 Receivers and thought I'd give a mini review based on my findings! Everything you'd expect came in the box - a receiver, manual, remote control and batteries (most important). I'm not sure if this model has been officially launched in the UK as yet as the...

    Mvision HD300 Combo Review?

    Hello all, Does anyone have one of these receivers? The specs look fantastic and the price even better than some of the bigger rivals. I've found some clear pictures...

    France 2 and France 3

    If you're looking to buy a BIS card, buy it from a French auction site ;) Many of them will ship to the UK and because it's just a card it doesn't cost much to send.

    Fransat/French TNTSAT

    The answer to that is yes and no. For example I use a Fortec Star receiver, which is a universal receiver capable of viewing any satellite that I can receive. In my case I have a setup to receive three satellites. As for TNTSAT, the box provided requires a paired card (supplied) and will only...

    Fransat/French TNTSAT

    You just buy the card (for a year), insert it in a viaccess 3 CAM and scan for the channels and that's it.

    Fransat/French TNTSAT

    I've looked at all systems - TNTSat, BIS TV and Fransat and I believe BIS TV is the easiest way of getting French TV on your own receiver (from Hotbird). There are also many, many FTA channels on Hotbird compared to Atlantic Bird 3's relatively small list.
