Do you mean you got the FTA?? you can't get half decrypting, or am I wrong, read the sticky on vplug.

double good. got vplug working with progdvb. Just a couple of issues.

1) did a full blind scan. Found lots of channels but some have a very weak signal. I've noticed that this can be fixed by knocking the channel frequency down by 100 Hz. It seems that for some reason the blind scan doesn't lock on the central frequency. Has anybody else come across this problem?

2) I've noticed that even the blind scan didn't get all the channels. I had sultana sports last week before dvbdream decided to stop working but I don't know what the transponder frequency is to manually add it to my channel list. Anybody have an idea? leeds area

3) the good old bruteforce file for progdvb would be a solution for the above but I'm kinda lost on the instructions. put the list in the correct folder but I can't seem to find where progdvb asks for a network so I can select 'china'....

Perhaps we should get a wiki going with transponder frequencies by area and channel much like people have produced for terrestrial and sat.

BBC HD looks great. Bit of a shame that they don't try to air the formula one in HD or any of the rugby when they have it. what a waste.
