Hi guys
Have had my htpc for a year or two now but never really used it much until I decided the other day that I wanted to use it as my satellite box! I intend to to get it all to work on Win7 Media Centre.
With that in mind my skystar2 card arrived this morning and I have all intentions of been looking around online for guides for the last 4/5 hours but can honestly say I now have information overload and none of it is fitting together.
So I figured I would ask the trusty community here for some advice. Let me just tell you what I'd like to initially get done.
I have a motorised setup for just for ease for now I will be sticking to 28e (sky) so I don't have to concern myself about multiple satellites and stuff.
I would like all the channels working in MCE if possible, a bit like this chap has
Windows 7 Media Centre (W7MC) - Live TV EPG - Sky and Freesat - YouTube
I would also like use cccam for now as I will be decrypting my official sub that is currently in my db. I know I should be on oscam but I aint got round to swapping over yet and as I'd like to do the bulk of this tomorrow don't really fancy having to learn oscam (though I will do a real crash course if I have to)
Also how does MCE read cccam/oscam or any cam?
Been looking that a lot of people have been using dvblink? Is it worth it/necessary?
Are there thing like channel lists for MCE like there are for dreamboxes?
Guys any help here would be appreciated.
I do promise that should I get this working I will write a full guide on how to do it so that future generations will be helped.
