Derek, pretty simple, there are users who cannot change their SAT infrastructure easily. The reasons are varied, e.g. they are tenants and not allowed to change it by the owners, they own it and cannot change it due to the rules of commonhold association or the own it and the construction of apartment/house doesn't allow changes etc. Unlike USA, Canada, not many people own houses in Europe or are living in houses with that flexibility. You're right, to have one cable for each DVB adapter is nice to have, but is sometimes not doable. The individuals who can do, will run decent SAT infrastructure, for sure. fnu _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx https://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
