Got quite a few stations now from this bird...

Very fringe reception me thinking

Doh I labeled them the wrong satellite :

Very good quality screenshots, and low file-sizes too. I take it you're using a capture card - what is it?

Yeah im using one that came with this computer a Medion 7134 dumping it as a raw BMP then using a viewing software called FastStone Image Viewer to convert them to JPG and rename them in order.

Oh yeah ive got a Scart to S-Video convertor (White, Red and Yellow leads) since it has only S-Video in although Ive tried S-Video to S-Video I think this gives slightly better quality with the cables I have here.
