    yes im using one for it myself

    u want an 80cm dish set to 13 east and put the card in the slot and your away

    getting the dish right for the hd channels is only tricky part

    Can anyone confirm an old sky dish (obviously would need to be pointed in the right direction!) will work for 13.0e reception? I'm in Dublin. Thinking of just turning one of the two sky dishes I have (don't ask!).

    It will work yes, but reception of HD channels will be hit and miss in the rain

    88cm would make it rock solid I assume?

    still can be tricky if your slightly off even with an 88cm dish for the hd Channels

    On the cardsplitter site you can filter the card options by "nc" and "cyfra". The card linked above is a cyfra one and I wondered if it was some historical remnant or something? All the channels on the cyfra cards are slightly out of date.

    From that point of view, I thought the safer order would be an nc card. I was thinking of this one for circa €400.

    Al Jazeera online sub will work out at less than $200 per year..... Hard to argue against.

    Just in case you dont know, although that card has lots of stations most of them will be in Polish and not English

    And can you watch this on your TV or just PC/Laptop?

    And what is the quality of the stream like?

    Yeah, I've had it before. Some ok english content, it used to be a bit annoying where National Geographic HD was Polish audio only, while the same programme on the SD channel had both options!

    Obviously not as high a bit rate as over sat but from what I've read it's still very good quality.

    I'm just preparing for when Sky prevent my current setup from working despite how much I pay them. I've grown used to using my mini pc for all my live tv and media viewing and don't want to go back to needing a set top box as well.

    the films on nc+ in english are good


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 322 ✭✭Bubonic


    Most the HBO Poland content is in English as well if you can stretch to that

    Not bad!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,138 ✭✭✭snaps


    And that tied in with a sub with Eurosport 2 (In English) will give you Bundesliga and other sports too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭Nelbert


    It's essentially all the sky and bt games and the 3pm game of highest potential interest i.e the one setanta will probably show on setanta ireland or 1.

    Good stuff but Al Jazeera online sub is still tempting. Will all depend if I can find an xbmc plugin that I could just type my login details into. May just bite the bullet and put the 13e dish up regardless.

    Make sure its at least an 80cm one as the canal+ HD channels go walkabout in rain. I've even lost them this week in heavy thundery rain on an offset 1.1m


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 6,046 Mod ✭✭✭✭Nowso


    not a bad list of games , Ive lost it in very heavy rain on the Hd , but switch to the sd channel then as that would need terrible weather to knock it off

    Could I have 28 off the same dish? Centre on 13 and offset 28?

    Do you mean you want 13 and 28 on the same dish? If that is what your asking the answer is Yes.

    Would not center on 13 personally, I would center on somewhere in the middle like 19.

    Exactly. A bit more wife friendly to only have one dish. I'm just on the north side of Dublin so would one of the td88's do for this? Would I need a new LNB for 28? Currently have a sky dish and lnb for that?

    I actually have a 70 cm centred on 28 with extra LNBs on 19 and 13 which works fine in all weather so far, except thunder storms.

    I suspect I am lucky though all the advice is to point it at the weakest signal.
