hackbart Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Since the release of the DVBViewer Pro 3.2 was over-due - it had been announced for release some weeks ago - we did our best to publish it before the summer holidays. For more refer the link: Now we proudly announce a new release of the DVBViewer Pro that again proves that lots of features and stability at the same time is possible. As a result of our close co-operation with Twinhan now all of their cards will run as stable as the SkyStar 2. Additionally the DVBViewer Pro now acts as a COM-server which provides a wide range of new possibilities. For example you can now request teletext pages comfortably within Excel or Word, furthermore you can read and program the OSD. At last we optimized the skin engine (both OSD and windowed skin), that was long due because of a lack of performance. Therefore we gladly announce a competition for the OSD design skin, which is solely done by our own skin-editor. Information on prizes and details will be disclosed in the next days. The skin-editor is freely available and restricted to be used with the DVBViewer.
