UK HD

[David-J]

Hi,

 

I've read the FAQ and looked through the posts but I can't find an answer to what I am going to ask (Sorry if this has been answered, I just couldn't find it!).

 

I've just built a nice little HD-HTPC and a 42" 1080p LCD to go with my 7.1 audio.

 

I only use the HTPC for music, pictures and dvd/movies (mostly .avi) my TV is taken care of by my Sky+ box.

 

Now I have the set up I am interested in going fully HD, problem is the Sky HD box is £249 and another £10 per month.

 

Is there a PCI/USB card I can buy that does the same as the sky HD box? I assume I would need to ring sky, pay the £10 per month and get a new viewing card with I need to attatech to the PCI/USB device.

 

Is this possible? Has anyone done it? I've googled 'till my eyes bleed, is there anyway of getting sky HD without a sky hd box?

 

Thanx,

 

David

Yes it is possible and the following very long thread will tell you everything

I don't believe you

 

As long as bskyb don't offer legal CI-modules you have to follow links like @Lakeuk's link. IMO, further discussion should not take place on this board (rules). Therefore I will close this thread
