I live in a large house; we pay for satellite TV, and most people have tivos in their rooms. I have a very small room and a very nice laptop, so I’d rather not get a TV; I watch HULU all the time, and would like to simply plug the satellite tv connection into my computer, watch if on the screen. How do I do this? I’ve spent awhile on the internet, but all I can find are scams that tell me that I can watch 3000 channels for free if I just download some software, "no dish required" yada yada. Well, I have the dish. What else do I need?
As you said, you need a software for you to access those channels. And you also need a good internet speed, maybe at least 1Mbps and up. This will prevent lag and buffering of videos.
You just need to find reviews on each software you find before purchasing.
It says in the help that something is supposed ot automatically download, nothing did. I tried many times to fix it and nothing. HELP PLEASE!!!
after buying it, did you let them try to check if it’s working?
if yes, your mac or your modem might be in firewall. check the firewall settings and disable it temporarily.
I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV through a VGA cable but my laptop does not have the VGA input downloaded. Where can I find it? Also what would be the name of it because I am on the Toshiba downloads and there is bunch of weird names that do not have VGA.
Once VGA is connected to the VGA port of your TV, right click on your desktop then click properties then click settings. Click on the secondary monitor. If you have the option for dual screen select it or you can choose clone. Explore the best configuration for you.

The company claims that for $50 you can download software that allows you to watch thousands of satellite channels from all over the world. It’s pretty new software and I wasn’t able to find many reviews online, especially ones from average people. Has anyone purchased this? Does it work and how well? I’d love to get rid of my dish and save that money each month, but want to make sure this isn’t a scam.

The problem is that none of these types of programs can live up to their hype. At their best, all they can do is link you to stuff that is already free on the Internet.
No matter what, they can’t legally give you the kind of programing that Dish or Direct TV offer.
There is a lot of programing that you can access with just your browser, see hulu.com for example.
You can also download TVU which is a free program that is similar the the "Satellite TV XXX" programs. It’s been around for years and is well known.
You also need high speed internet service to get decent quality video.

Satellite Installer Professional is one the best guides I’ve used on field (and back at home) to install my own TV dish. Written by a pro, it has manuals and videos to guide you through the whole process. It’s quite simple once you get the hang of the basics.
Recetly I ran across a link to free satellite on your computer. It seems that for a one-time fee of $50, you download software that enables you to watch over 2000 tv channels live, world-wide. You get them for free forever. Sounds too good to be true. Where’s the catch?
The catch is that they are ripping you off

we just bought a viewsat ultra 2000 reciver for free satellite tv.
they told us to download the program we needed on to a flash drive, but i’m not really sure how to do it. can anybody help me with this???please.
Hiya,
There is a really wasy procedure to following - Here goe’s.
Using a computer, get on-line to the web-site stated in your instructions. Once this is done, insert the flash drive into the usb port of your computer, wait for this USB FLASH DRIVE to become active. Now following the instructions provided by the instruction manual or web-page, go to the download section on the web-site. When there, simply click download button, then when the download dialogue box appears, across the top or near it, you will see listed a location on your computer. Change this to read the DRIVE LETTER the computer has assigned to your USB FLASH DRIVE from the drop down list. Once the drive letter has been chosen, simply click save (The filename, and file type should automatically have been entered by the Web-site down load page.). The computer will now download the specified programme, and it will in turn be placed on the USB FLASH DRIVE.
MAKE SURE THAT THE FLASH DRIVE IS OF A SOMEWHAT LARGER SIZE THAN THE FILE TO BE DOWNLOADED. I recommend something like 1gb or bigger.
When the file has downloaded to the FLASH Drive, and the web-site says it is ok , rem ove the FLASH DRIVE, and follow any instructions provided to load the programme for your receiver, into the required slot or hardware.
Hope this helps,
Alex
