Hi guys, congrats on getting 8.10 released.
I've been following Linuxmce for a few years and with the construction of my home almost complete I am getting ready to take a plunge into setting up a system. I am in the conceptual stage of my setup and have a question about satellite integration.
I intend to have a core in my basement take care of as much as possible, all of my network, telephone and cable terminate in a server closet where I plan to have the core. In order to integrate satellite feeds to the core I would use a DVB-s or DVB-S2 capture card, is that right? Would a card of this nature take the place of the satellite providers receiver? or would i still need a receiver? I plan to have 3 media directors boot via netboot. I was planning on having two dvb-s or dvb-s2 cards to be able to watch different shows on two different media directors at the same time. Do I have the theory correct, or is there a better way to do this?
Thanks,
FOD
