DVB Newtech transmissions on 5W - Techwatch: Satellite TV forums, FTA, Cable, Hardware, & Tech forums

I've noticed there is a few bits of MPEG-4 transmissions coming off 5W at the moment. Anyone managed to get any of it yet :?

King of Sats states "No reception through standard DVB receivers" Is this broadcast another new standard thats coming out?

Newtech needs specialised (professional grade) kit.

This is very interesting. Looks like this has been around for a while, but I hadn't picked up on it. It's DVB-S and MPEG-4, so it's a 'standard' transmission - but the trouble with the MPEG-4 standard (as we know from the Sky/MBAFF/BBC HD fiasco) is that there's nothing standard about it.

I guess that if it's just a bastardisation of the 'standard' video compression as opposed to a proprietary video encryption, then there might be a chance of an emulator/codec for the PC or Dreambox at some point - especially if they start broadcasting premium content.

I guess though, that premium content would also bring about the switch to a robust encryption system.

Yeah, I found a thread from another forum referring to a thread on DS by some bloke called Analoguesat translating something from German about it being French DTT :spite:
