Guide to Premiership Football on satellite

yellabelly

I've found the HD picture to occasionally suffer break up (although not merged with another channel). It doesn't seem as steady as last season (or my dish isn't hitting the sweet spot any more).

Cheers, it is very strange. Depending on the time of day the signal varies. Last night for example I got nothing at all from the HD channels, and the Canal Sports 1 channel wasn't there either, while 2 and 3 were perfect. I can see the signal dropping off completely on this transponder. I'll have to make do as I've most other stuff on hotbird working fine as well as 19.2, 28 and now 23.5 which I only just found I had!

Mine has been just about ok so far during the couple of matches I've watched. It has been bright and sunny so I'm a bit concerned what to expect in bad weather especially as I just renewed my card. I'm getting not much more than 50% with 1m on a Dreambox.

The only issue I have is the annoying commentary but I found that time shifting for 30 seconds synced the game perfectly with Talk Sport online. It is a shame that the BBC 5 Live stream is actually ahead of broadcast television.

When I can be bothered I feed Radio 5 into Radiodelay but it is not all that convenient to setup every time.
What I would like is a way to play the audio from another source while watching video from the Cyfra channel. It could be from the internet radio plugin or satellite radio coming from one of the other tuner slots in your STB. Then if you could time shift the radio it would be perfect.

I mentioned this before but I switch on Cyfra and get my laptop beside me. I then connect, via the browser on my laptop, to my other Dreambox and VLC stream BBC5L. With VLC you can simply pause the stream and sync it with the video output. Takes about 1-2 minutes to get it right and its sorted for the match.

I'd love to be able to do that, as I have Vu+ Duo, with one tuner on a motorised dish, the other tuner fixed on 28E.

So video from Cyfra, on tuner1, and audio from 5Live on tuner2 would be cool!

I'd doubt it could be done though...

lads what's the story with RTS 1 Senegal (7e), they are a free to air channel and they have the sunderland v man utd match on it?

is that delayed coverage or live ?

snaps

Canal+Gol (Poland) swings into action today, showing the villa/Chelsea match. Infact it seems all the uk/Ireland televised matches are on Cyfra+ this weekend.

Minstrel27

Here's hoping this is regular as they have been missing some of the games shown on Sky/ESPN

Zardoz

Picture quality on Tring was a bit better today ,not as pixellated and blocky as usual.

sob1467

The Manchester City Blackpool game was is not on any of the cyfra+ channels today despite being advertised on the liveonsat website because if you go into canalplus.pl it is not on the official listings for today.

Minstrel27

Yes, that pissed me off a bit when I relaised. LJ's is throwing up lots of wrong information. They also say that there was two Heineken Cup matches on Al Jazeera today when there wasn't. They got the Bundesliga wrong yesterday too.

Stoke v Man Utd does not appear to be on Cyfra next Sun either, a bit surprised by this:(

Minstrel27

They do seem to be missing a lot of Sky/ESPN games. I will be looking towards something like Sky Italia next year. Cyfra is quite poor but then you get what you pay for.

Its still good value in my opinion especially as alot of the games are in hd and you get la liga, serie a etc but not having a 1.30pm sun game is a downer. Especially when they are showing Newcastle v Sunderland at 1.30 the Sunday after? I suppose its beacause they are showing Górnik Zabrze - Lech Poznan live at that time on C+sports1 but they have no live game on +GOL.

Anyway Sky Italia too expensive for me unfortunately:(

Minstrel27

I only use Cyfra for the Premier League so maybe that's why I have a poor opinion of it. I use Al Jazeera for everything else except the Bundesliga which I have on Eurosport 2.

Cyfra is all i have for now so happy enough with it, might ask santa for an al jazeera card

Minstrel27

Well worth it imo.

Would need to get a cam as well as only one card slot which is in use so will stick with cyfra, itvhd and rte2/tv3 for now unless i see a good cam and al jazeera card deal.

I regret buying that Cyfra + card, I think its a bit ****e tbh

Tring still apparently are holding up well, if LJ's listings are right.

Having once caught a glimpse of the pic quality on Tring though, the picture makes JSC look HD (slight exaggeration).

Stoke v Man Utd advertised for Canal+ Gol tomorrow, happy days!

L.J.s site lately has become a bit unreliable of late

For the pool fans

they are showing your match on RTS 1 Senegal, a free channel

its on 36e and 7w

recyclebin

My prayers have been answered. United v Stoke is on canal+ gol on cyfra. It doesn't appear to be advertised on the epg or even the canal+ website. Is there a site that has the canal+ gol schedule anywhere?

Even Ljs don't have it down to be on this channel.

The website was updated on Sat to say they were showing it, it was a late decision as they only started advertising it on there canal sport tv channels yesterday too.
This is the link for the listings -

Sky Italia is not expensive, it just depends where you look!

Minstrel27

Can you recommend any good retailers for Sky Italia cards. Anywhere I have looked it has been scadelously high. I am trying to expand my options for next year.

Sky It cards are available now for between 500-600 euros a year with sport and HD included. If you know where to look!

That's the cheapest I've ever heard mentioned!

Would that nab you both Sport and Calcio, or just one of them?

denis1501

Just one of them Byte, you're talking another €100 for both.

OK.

So is this cheaper option a secret? Or do you just mean I get a sub through somebody I know in Italy?

Hi
I am considering buying a Ferguson Ariva HD Combo box.
I have a Technomate 1000 CI for the past 6 yeas, so I want something that can pick up HD.

Can anyone give me some information on what I will need to buy so I can pick up some premiership football using the Ferguson Ariva HD Combo box.
At the moment I am picking up Astra & Hotbird using 3 lnb on a 80cm dish.

I know that you only get what you pay for, but I want to start with something cheap and I was thinking about a CYFRA + card.

Would I need a CAM and a Card ?

What would you recommend and where to buy ?

All advice welcomed.

Thanks

Does the Ferguson box have a multicrypt cardslot?

If not, then you'd need card+CAM

I recommend satsklep.pl

Thanks for the reply.
I don't think it has a multicrypt card slot.

Would this work.
http://satsklep.pl/index.php?s=produkt&id_prod=1249&id_kat=80&id_typu=0

Cyfra+ multipakiet
Price in the Euro: 151.87

and

http://satsklep.pl/index.php?s=produkt&id_prod=991&id_kat=81&id_typu=0

CAM for Cyfra+ , HDTV

Price in the Euro: 50.54

Would this be similar to what other people are using?

Minstrel27

If you want HD then you will need this http://satsklep.pl/index.php?s=produkt&id_prod=1250&id_kat=80&id_typu=0

Just got my renewal price for Sky Italia from the seller I bought it from last December, he wants €800 (He initially wanted €815) for Sport+Calcio+HD, can't see me getting a better price than that but I'm still wary of paying out that sort of money especially now in the current climate, if the commentary of Prem matches was in English I probably would go for it. I was thinking of maybe trying the Calcio only option, it would probably be 250-300 cheaper. Its really only the football I want it for although it was handy having the sport option for some of the rugby matches and the Ryder cup earlier in the year.
Anyone any better suggestions for me? (BTW I have Tring but its really the HD 3pm matches I want)

I don't think there's much out there to better the Sky Italia, especially for all the HD content.

I know of a Premier League HD bouquet somewhere, others have commented on it. I think it's Scandinavian, but with English comms?

Viasat on 4.8e Byte - Is the best package now so they say & with English Audio....

4.8e Nordic Beam is very hard to pick up in Ireland though
