    Hi, just seeing if anybody knew if all DVB-S2 tuners can receive MPEG 4.4.2 signals thanks?
    I was going to buy an azbox or any other capable receiver.

    Thanks -Johnny

    Most boxes can tune in these feeds. But not many boxes can view them (no codec). To watch these feeds on a technomate/dreambox etc you tune them in on the box and stream the black screen to your computer and you'll see the picture. Handyfor the GAA in the summer.

    RTE often use feeds from 1 west for their outside broadcasts. These are usually 4:2:2 in the clear. sometimes you can pick up a live match that isnt being broadcast on TV.

    Put GAA in the search box at the bottom of the page on this link and you will see details of feeds. There are usually 3 feeds on 1 West on Sundays and you can get Setanta feeds for Saturday night games sometimes as well. Look out for RTE/TG4 feeds on 27 West also.
