Lyngsat Stream

[Dishman Dan]

I have not been on the LyngSat website for a while until today.

They have a bunch of channels with FreeDBS style names that can be

streamed for free. Did anyone else check these out???

A few channels that are available ITC on satellite are available streaming too.

Why is it on a free satellite tv channel list has me scratching my head

and why I posted it here has others scratching theirs!!!

 

[Mr Tony]

I'm confused......

I think Dishman Dan means that the "TubTub" channels have similar names to the FreeDBS channels.

Lyngsat-stream has links to channels that are streamed online.

Thanks! That is what I thought I said.

Some of the channels are available fta on satellite (a.k.a. on "the list" or LyngSat) but

now are also available streamed. Did anyone else check this out???

(Scratching my head because that LyngSat page is normally for FTA satellite channels! )

Perhaps the future of FTA receivers are those that have support for playing back video from selected sites that offer free tv channel streaming off the internet.

As far as I know FreeDBS is dead and most of the origional people behind the project are no longer involved with it.

Scott,

Has something changed since Jeff S. posted this in the Manhattan review thread last week?:

......That is why I’m continuing to support FreeDBS. While they have issues (don’t we all in today’s society), they are still trying hard to bring this to market. I have just received another email from them explaining the issues and folks, there is work to do. People in the programming segment are needed to move this forward after one of the key people left, which put a hole in this segment of their business plan. If anyone is interest and has experience in this area. I’m forming a group of people to help so just one person doesn’t have to do all the heavy lifting. Of course there is no money involved in this, but I think we can make this programming ours, the FTA community. It is a sound model and we could see more and more programming coming in the market if this succeeds.

I hope we can work together to move this forward. Email me @ jeff.schumann@manhattan-digital.net

I cannot count how many times people want to watch North America programming and purchase a system. There is not allot of programming up there. This could be the growth this industry needs. I hope you understand what is at stake here!......

The TubTub channels have been streaming for awhile. I have watched them online for at least a year. Pretty jerky on my HTPC setup so I do not watch it much, but have seen some really funny older movies on their. As I recall they started with 2-4 channels and I think the count now is probably near 100. Not sure why they would put these on satellite since it has been streaming from concept but that would likely improve the video quality.

edit: just checked and tubtub.com is showing 120 channels.
