Hi ! I am new to the list. I just bought a Nexus and installed VDR (the
menu works) but have not yet installed a dish neither any experience with
satellite dishes (It is very difficult to get a clear view to the south)
If you add a second (lowbudget) card, how do you connect them to the LNB ?
Do you need a splitter or T-connector, or a Twin LNB, or a pass-through
connection, or what ?
Another question, do most of you use an adapter for the CI cards, and how
is it supported (if at all) ? Or do you only watch free-to-air channels ?
I am no linux newbie, but I am a satellite-newbie...
Last Q: I remarked to my amazement that the included remote control
Hauppauge sells with the Nexus uses the *exact* same codes as my Philips
television. Thus I cannot use that remote. I thought there were so many
codes that such 'clashes' almost never happened. Oh well...
Anyone else has had this ? ( of course this is just a Hauppauge / Philips
problem, not VDR related at all)
TIA...
