If the boresight one seems wider than a normal 12GHz tube, thats because there are more Feedhorns jammed together. Search for Ka Or Ka/Ku LNBF. All of the LNB are circular. This LNB places the downconverted Ka band outside the usual 900MHz-2200MHz I have one of the 5 LNBF models that I was...

Merry Christmas everyone!

It is the broadcasting station that is sending the visible VBI data and not your antenna or TV's fault. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTSC#Lines_and_refresh_rate Says 525 lines, 486 of which are visible. Normally in analog NTSC on a CRT screen, the VBI data is projected to the non-visible...

Linuxman, for what it's worth when I got the DSR-922 I did a little testing of my own. The goal was trying to get a BSC-621 to work. So this was a single wire solution. I hooked up my analog sqealer meter with it's "V/H" and "22kHz (tone)" LED's to the appropriate port. I power-cycled...

Fizbi, are you using something for an AC-3 decoder? I know when I have the SonicVoom hooked up it doesn't respect the Left/Right Audio selection on the Coolsat 5000/6000 The analog RCA and RF channel 3/4 modulator built-in to the Coolsat respect the audio Left/Right preference but the digital...

DSR-922 still up for grabs

Silver mesh DCH-43xx had a buggy GUI but reliable recorder The all black DCX-43xx was the best one we had but it was a bit fussy and would dump all but 4-hours of guide data from time to time.

Sent a pm to you, ikki

Anyone else looking for a 922? It's time to make the house payment and we're short this month. I haven't subbed it since March. It's a 2005 edition!

How long have you waited for guide data? Back when I had Comcast, guide data took a minimum of one hour before I got the next 4 hours worth of data. Watching TV on the box could drag that out to 4 hours or more. Turning the box off (standby) could speed that up to 30-45 mins. for the same "Next...

I catch it twice a day, weekdays on 125W 12168 H 4444 Once at 4:30am PST and again at 12:30pm PST

The DTAs only have an RF. Ch 3-4 analog output on them. The why of Comcast not providing a unencrypted digital feed breaks down to these points: Clear QAM are considered unsecure. Hollywood channel contracts demands and require the channels be transmitted securely. Hollywood won't agree to an...

They want to move to the Satellite model. No need to roll a truck to place a filter when a sub cancels service (saves money). Only subs can see only their subscribed channels. Set-top boxes record what, when and how long some channels was watched. Useful in channel-cost negotiations...

Box needed to be turned off/"standby" mode at some random time between 12:30am and 2:30am. Otherwise it only got a trickle feed that took 3+ hours for only 4 hours of guide data

Funny enough I have been working on the Census myself. Now understand I have to be really careful about how I answer anything census related. Two thing I want to make clear. 1. Census enumerators are not allowed to use the Internet to check on places (Google Earth and Maps and the like)...

Sorry about the delay. I had a similar experience with the NFHD I have it on hand since I was helping out in trying to return the box. Anyway, I got better results disconnecting the 8psk board and only watching the regular qpsk stuff. It was approx. a 5% boost to the quality meter The box...

I have my hands on a NFHD. Do you have the 8PSK board installed? (I realize it is a Turbo-coded 8PSK board but that's another discussion.) I get a large amount of loss using the 8PSK board since it is just looped-out and they provide a weak excuse of coax for a jumper I usually cannot get...

The Coolsat 5000 & 6000 need a straight serial cable to work.

Well talk about opening my mouth the one time I needed to keep it shut. Oh well...

The GPU may just be one of the popular DSP chips that can do MPEG2 and MPEG4 decoding Please give links to those statements saying that it overclocks the system. I know the name (hardware accelleration) is decieving, but in Linux meda centers that is what hardware acceleration is. Offloading...

The downside would be if you came a cross a feed that used some scheme that the developers didn't write a method to pass through the GPU. Just as an example that's highly unlikely: Let just say you run across a feed that is is transmitted in VC1 (the default codec for Blu-Ray/HD-DVD) instead...

The hardware acceleration setting determines where the video is decoded Either on the CPU of the unit (hw accel off), taking processing time away from other functions and slowing the unit down, or on a dedicated video processing unit (normally refered to as a graphics processing unit in the rest...

NO. Long list of how that's not going to work. Authorization. Unit has to be authorized on the physical cable it's connected to. DVR feature has to be authorized. Channel maps are authorized. Also known as channel packages. All authorizations have a timeout period. Most of the unit...

*bleep* lost my post. Closed one tab too many. Sorry if I'm short, I just lost a decent amount of good info in a well written post. I saw you have a DishProPlus setup in a older thread of yours. That makes it hard to combine all 3 on one dish cleanly with what you have. If you are fighting...
