With
a PC (DVB) satellite receiver card you can do many things that
are only possible with the most expensive set-top box receivers
as well as you have the choice of using several software
available on the net. If you use it on your computer screen you
can even watch satellite TV in one corner of the screen and use
the rest of the screen to work on or browse the Internet.
You can use the software to
record your favorite programs directly on to your hard disk in
DVD quality. The software that comes with your card even has a
time-shift button where you just press the button when you
answer the phone and when you come back you continue watching
where you stopped without having to wait for the show to finish.
Most other available software compatible with the Visionplus
cards normally has at least the recording and EPG (Electronic
Programming Guide) functions.
You can also use these cards to
get high speed internet access if you live in rural parts where
ADSL is not available.
