Sohan above said in Jan 2006 that you were "hoping to have DVB-T support later this year". It's one year later now, how is this progressing?

We might be at some point in the future, but right now we're strictly focused on the U.S. and Canadian markets.

I've been using and loving Snapstream for years and have been promoting it to many colleagues here at Dolby, but the fact that I can't use a DVB card and that there is no date for when it may become available has made me start looking at MCE specs. So far I've been using an analog card with freeview tuner (and girder) but the picture is not too good and getting more than 10 channels tuned is a nightmare. I just want to be able to buy the £70 dual Hauppauge DVB card and get it to work - but I guess I can't without dropping Snapstream It’s a serious failing to not have DVB support for Europe.

I believe that Snapstream will gain many more users (and revenue) then their market research is telling them. I'll wager that DVB support will double their user base almost instantly.

We are going to be re-evaluating our priorities towards the middle of this year and at that time, hope to put more resources on this. Soham Hello Gene,

Sometimes it takes awhile to set up personal machines. I was frustrated at 1st as I had a multitude of playback issues and my friends HTPC's worked seamlessly. I was persistant and now love the bragging rights... no montly fees, etc. when I show my personalized HTPC. The menus with a Firefly remote look great on a 42" Plasma.

For me 4.0 worked much better than earllier verions. The install is only as good as the processor & hardware that support it. If you cut cost there then, well talk is cheap!

And the software will automatically figure out which card to use based on the channel once you have set everything up. David, Zilla, and Jack, if you have not already, please contact tech support so that we can try to help you get up and running. Beyond TV 4.1 does have several fixes in it, but it's impossible to say if it will specifically address the problems that you are seeing without more information. Soham Hello Daniel,
