High Definition Feed From Euro 1080

[RTFM]

Today we installed a feed from Europe's first High Definition satellite channel, Euro 1080. Although broadcasting does not start officially until 01/01/04, they are broadcasting a variety of HD material all day for test purposes.
The set top box will output 720p or 1080i as well as downscaling to 576p or 576i
The quality through a good projector is outstanding. It compares very well with the High Def material we show from D-VHS tapes from the US on our Sim2 projectors.

Jeff,


What set-top box are you using and where did you source it ? Do you need a card for the feed ?

Thanks,

Sean, the STB is from Zintec in NL.
It's a Zinwell ZDX-410HD
No card needed as it's FTA
