    All about Feeds

    What is a feed? This is not a television commercial, but casual transmission, very rarely permanent, which usually carry a signal of live events, but also deferred.

    It can be said that more than half of feeds direct connections to transmit information, material for news agencies or sporting events that are of most interest to the public.

    Is it difficult to catch a feed?

    Use satellite feeds to those usually for digital reception in Europe, except those who are captured in the Hot Bird position (13 ° East) and Hispasat (30 ° West). Many feeds, for reasons of copyright or private (or signal carriers often charge carriers to the recipients by the transmitted material), issued encrypted.

    An added difficulty is that .... because of their irregular schedules and technical parameters can only be sure to capture total if you have the latest lists of "catch", although this is not always necessary because many operators have leased frequencies for several years in the same satellite.

    Depending also on the parameters of SR (symbol rate or amount of information conveyed over the channel per second) and the satellite's power, the difficulty can range between high and very simple (as simple as a channel of Astra 1). When the SR is low, typically involve channels

    SCPC (single channel per transponder or frequency), then the receiver must be prepared for both MCPC (multiple channel per frequency, which is usual) to SCPC as well as for low SR (since 2500 is a good threshold).

    Diameters should be used also somewhat higher than normally recommended for the satellite in question if you want to ensure receipt of MCPC channels with low SR.

    Example: Hispasat feeds on low band are easier to get to 60 cm in diameter instead of the usual 50cm.

    What is needed to view a feed in open?

    At the very least serve any free channel digital receiver and an antenna of 60 cm which are used to Astra at 19.2 degrees East.

    However, the most desirable and suitable for almost any satellite antenna feeds it from 1 meter in diameter, driven and a receiver capable of blind search.

    If a feed broadcast in 4:2:2 format, can you see? Is possible if you have got the necessary hardware.

    How to orient the satellite antenna emits a feed interesting?.
    First, the antenna must be oriented to the south from where you are installing.

    The best practice is to use the azimuth, measured in degrees from true North accurate and turning the antenna in the direction of clockwise which then provides a table along with the elevation required.

    The elevation is measured using the setting which is included in the antenna mounts, and requires that the mast, wall, etc., which is determined by the antenna is perfectly perpendicular to the ground, as otherwise vary.

    Can you see a feed encrypted in Viaccess / RAS / BISS?

    No, these transmissions are protected by copyright and therefore operators (Globecast and EBU / UER in particular) are not made accessible to the public.
    But is possible if you are a good investigator.

    4:2:2 you can watch with Skystar2 card with Elecard codec.
    Also you can watch 4:2:2 feeds with AZ Box HD receiver.
    Here you can find actual feeds: _http://www.satelliweb.com/
    HD-BOX FS-9200,SkyStar HD2 USB CI, Skystar2 90Fe Motor, 85Al Multifeed
