DVBDream v1.3a - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

I'm using this with my SS2 and I must say that I much prefer this to the other 2 (Progdvb, Altdvb) that I have used before. Anyone else here that use this?

I have used it but I preferred Progdvb due to the ability to link with my dreambox.

However, I have this afternoon installed Alt-DVB 2.2 and it is far better than the others

I used a pre-1.0 version and it was as buggy as anything, but I've not tried the later versions.

Might give this a go tomorrow give me something to do while waiting for my TM1000 to arrive. Thanks Fergiz

There's a v1.3b out now apparently, I really like this so far, I've had no problems whatsoever. My only gripe is that it looks like my Freecom dvb-t stick is not supported but I can live with (or without) that.

Hi fergiz given this a go today and i think it needs a pretty powerful cpu. Cpu usage has been up between 50 and 60% on my machine even hungrier than progdvb. Like the new altdvb though that seems to run pretty fast as Jim says.

I have a Pentium D CPU 2.8GHz and my CPU usage is 4% when running DVB Dream.

Mine is a P4 1.7 not too much clout with it.

Really like the DVB Dream program, especially the PIP, but it seems to be limited to 4 satellites max. I have a motorized dish controlled by a TM 1500, so I would like to be able to input a lot more satellites into DVB Dream, but so far have not found a way to do apart from installing a second time?

just given this another go and quite like it also found out you can use vplug with it
