Hi guys,
Well, straight off I gotta tell ya, this is the most frustrating thing I've ever tried to do... All I want is to be able to watch satellite FTA through the Vista frontend with my Technotrend S2-3200 card. Not even encrypted channels!
To check the actual sat equipment (dish, LNB, cable, S2-3200) was okay, I installed DVBViewer - all Astra 2D FTA channels come in loud and clear (even BBC HD!)
The problem lies in trying to get it to work in Vista MCE... I've installed the latest drivers from Technotrend, but to no avail. The TT_MCE_tools.zip that was listed on their site is gone, so I'm using Universal DVB in an attempt to do the whole "DVB-S to DVB-T" thing (at Technotrend's own suggestion, incidentally). So far? Nothing. It's configured under "Online Media" to go for Astra 2D, but I'm not getting a single channel in the channel scan. Please, PLEASE can anyone suggest what I can do?!?
Thanks for your time! (And believe me, I tried reading the 104 page thread on Sky in MCE many, many times - none of the suggestions in there have helped, unfortunately...)
