Signal Type
When the dLAN TV Sat is selected as the satellite receiver, the only signal type
available is DVB-S. This information is important when using the DVB-SI signal
as the EPG source.
EPG Source
The program guide can obtain information about the broadcast programs in any
of three ways:
b
From the DVB-SI signal: The digital data stream offered by the various sat-
ellites usually contains quite precise information about the broadcast pro-
grams. However, not all channels offer details about their programs in this
way. The DVB-SI signal is always available whenever stations can be
received via satellite. No Internet connection or additional subscriptions are
required—this service is free of charge.
b
From epgData.com: The data from the free Internet program guide epg-
data.com can be called up using the corresponding option. However, the
information are sometimes incomplete, precisely for German-speaking
channels.
