Default If you want to try mpeg4 HD with ProgDVB...

Then you need the attached HD pack!

Not tried it myself (don't have time right now) but know some who have, with varying degrees of success.

One thing is for sure - you will need a very fast PC.

Instructions included in pack.

Thanks for that Stick, I will give it a try. See if I can wind up the elastic on my PC a bit tighter.

i have a TT C-1500 card and was wondering if the HD pack will work with that, V*rgin are only broadcasting BBc HD previews at the moment but i like to be ready when they get some more channels.

BTW, where is the HD pack.

i am currently using the power DVD codec to decode HD channels, this works but is a bit buggy

Heya!! Basically I was going to buy Hauppauge WinTV Nova-HD-S2 but my question is: can i enter patches in ANY satellite pci card using progDVB or the sat card needs to be patchable just like a stb is?

thanks

No you wont - the attachments didnt carry over when the old SatHelp forum merged with TechWatch 18 months ago.
