Satellite Antenna And Personal Computer

Finally I managed to buy a personal computer with all the accessories and now most of the time the whole family spends, not deviating from the computer a single step. After some time, the head of the family comes to the following conclusion: to make the computer bring constant joy, it is necessary to connect it to a satellite dish. As you know, not everyone knows how to do this. And in general - this is the work of a specialist. But a small consultation unknowing owners of personal computers can receive.

So, where to start the connection? First of all, you need to purchase special equipment:

1. The satellite antenna (the diameters of such antennas have a standard for a long time, but you can choose an antenna with a smaller or larger diameter, with one or three heads, depending on the number of channels broadcast from satellites).
2. DVB card for computer. It must be purchased. If there are other cards available, then you can use them.
3. Cable for connection to a computer. Multiple F-connectors. Metering itself is not difficult to determine. As for the connection, it is better to entrust this to all specialists. They will bring the necessary equipment and install it for a reasonable fee. There are firms supplying equipment, the price of which already includes a fee for installing a satellite antenna.
4. When the satellite is already set up, and you can watch the channels that are broadcast from the satellite dish, go to the computer. When installing the necessary card (it is also advisable to consult specialists about choosing a card), proceed to install the driver from the disk to the personal computer. All this is done when the antenna converter is connected to the computer.
5. You need to download the ProgDVB program, and then, following the step-by-step instructions, install the program on your computer. In the program settings, select the required satellite and install it. As for all other settings, then using the checked checkboxes opposite: updating the channel in the absence of a signal and disabling multiprocessing, you will be able to find all the channels. And then scan channels in automatic mode, if desired, you can also manually. When all the necessary channels are found and configured, you can try to find an additional satellite. Some craftsmen manage to view channels from satellites to which they did not have access. But such a view is fraught with consequences. Identify the illegal connection is easy, and then a huge fine. A few years ago, the illegal connection of satellite channels was monitored and all those responsible were punished, earning "bad" fame. All such craftsmen were broadcasted later on TV screens. Therefore, it is better not to risk and not repeat the bitter experience of the past.

Well, if you managed to watch satellite TV on your personal computer, then you can wish success in the future. Science on the spot is not worth it and there are still many technical innovations ahead.
