In one of my previous articles I mention my experience with the performance of my PC when viewing satellite TV on it. I discovered that some stations have good quality pictures while some do not. With the thousands of channels options you have available today your PC or laptop is a potential screen for TV viewing.
The quality of pictures on these channels are determine from the source. A typical 14inch monitor and the regular laptop screen of 14.5inch is more than enough minimum requirement for showing quality pictures though it ca not be compare with the resolution of the TV.
With the capacity of today's high-speed Internet, it is possible to watch television through your computer. Most graphics card that comes with the PC today are better enhanced to display at higher resolution than before. They have buffering capabilities to store and buffer in the built in cache.
Your graphics card and sound card are more than enough to deliver to you the same quality delivered to your system retaining 100% of the quality. You can enhance the quality by setting a higher resolution of your screen. First let me explain how satellite TV picture quality is loaded directly to your computer. Let us look at the technology of the satellite signal.
The original transmission are converted into a high-quality, uncompressed digital stream containing a lot of data, and sends it at a speed of 270 megabits per second (Mbps) for each channel. The satellite receiver at your end can only receive this data was compressed and decoded in a recognized video format for your system.
The common system of compression used is the MPEG-2 compressed video format. This video format is buddle with most if not all media player you find around today. This is similar to the system used to make DVDs. A typical graphics will equally reproduce this with the help of good media player without losing quality.
The provider could now reduce the 270-Mbps stream to about 5 or 10 Mbps, enabling them to transmit about 200 channels, instead of the 30 they could transmit before compression. The signal was scrambled or coded so only paid subscribers could receive it.
This software pooled a list of links from many TV channels sites for one to watch instantly online and all these channels are entirely free. No need to pay the TV stations for viewing as the software receiving the transmission is Free To Air TV broadcasts.
The satellite TV on PC Software has made it possible to turn your computer into a satellite television by converting the cable link to your computer. Thousands of channels are available through the Internet and can turn any computer into a satellite TV.
