Which DVB ?
I have been dreaming of having DVB S PCI card but I am still confused about which one to choose. Actually I have read some types of this device but so far I haven’t made up my mind which one I should buy. I haven’t even really understood the details of what I have read because I have no knowledge about technology to deal with technical devices. That is why I have to take some points into considerations before I make a decision:
1. To what extent my requirements can be fulfilled with limited budget.
2. How far the selected DVB is capable of tracking and catching satellites and channels.
3. How far the difficulty level of the DVB can be dealt with by the user.
4. How far the DVB is compatible with various existing softwares.
5. The life expectancy of the device.
Amongst the DVB’s features and their prices that I have learned, I have narrowed them down to 2 choices: Skystar 2 TV PCI and PCI DVB-S DM 1105. The first mentioned costs Rp 750.000,--, 2 times as much of the latter. I think I will choose the latter if its quality and capability are not very much different from those of the first one. On the contrary, I‘d rather have the first one if its quality and capability are twice as much of the latter.
My dear fellow forsatters could you please give me your advice which one to choose?
