Redazione TELE-satellite Magazine PO Box 1234 85766 Munich-Ufg GERMANIA/EUROPA UNION Direttore Responsabile Alexander Wiese alex@TELE-satellite.com Pubblicata in 21 lingue da TELE-satellite Medien GmbH Aschheimer Weg 19 85774 Unterfoehring GERMANIA/EUROPA UNION Grafica Nemeti Barna Attila Servizio pubblicità www.TELE-satellite.com/ads/ Tipografia Litografia Rosés 08850 Gavà SPAGNA/EUROPA UNION Copyright © 2009 by TELE-satellite ISSN 1435-7003

Cari Lettori, me ne stavo di recente seduto al mio bar preferito, consumando la mia colazione preferita (una grande tazza di caffè ed un croissant appena sfornato) e leggendo il mio giornale preferito, quando un articolo catturò la mia attenzione: l’ultima fabbrica di tubi catodici aveva chiuso i battenti. Con questo, i tubi catodici non vengono più costruiti! Nel 2008 c’era ancora un numero considerevole di TV a tubo vendute, ma nel 2009 è finito tutto; ora vengono costruite solo TV a schermo piatto. I tubi catodici hanno raggiunto la fine del loro ciclo di vita. Anche il cavo coassiale subirà lo stesso destino? A mio parere, sì, senza alcun dubbio! Circa un anno fa TELE-satellite pubblicava un articolo in esclusiva mondiale sul primo prototipo di un LNB con uscita ottica. La produzione di massa di questo nuovo tipo di LNB, insieme a tutti gli accessori necessari, ora è iniziata. In questo numero troverete una prova di questo LNB innovativo che ora è a disposizione di tutti. Perché sono così sicuro che le trasmissioni in fibra ottica siano la strada del futuro e che un giorno il cavo coassiale scomparirà e resterà solo un ricordo del passato? La tecnologia ottica mi ricorda Skype. No, non perché consente di fare telefonate gratuite, ma perché con Skype le distanze non rappresentano più un ostacolo. Quando mi trovo in giro per il mondo in uno dei miei viaggi e voglio chiamare un collega del posto usando il mio telefono cellulare, le compagnie telefoniche vogliono farmi credere che per loro si tratti di un’impresa tecnicamente difficilissima per potermi addebitare tariffe esageratamente alte per una telefonata locale. Queste compagnie telefoniche vivono ancora nel secolo scorso. Non si sono ancora rese ancora conto che non importa dove mi trovi nel mondo. Gli operatori cellulari prendano nota: per Skype la mia posizione è irrilevante, di norma ogni telefonata Skype è una telefonata locale. Questo è il principio di base di un mondo globale: le distanze non sono più un fattore determinante e questo è esattamente ciò che accade con la trasmissione ottica del segnale. Le distanze non rappresentano più un problema ed è per questo motivo che la fibra ottica è la tecnologia del 21esimo secolo! Ed ora un piccolo quiz: quale altra tecnologia conoscete che non sia limitata dalle distanze? Esatto, avete indovinato, la tecnologia satellitare non è influenzata dalle distanze. Un satellite può raggiungere quasi metà della superficie terrestre e questo significa che non importa più dove vi troviate. Purtroppo, anche le emittenti spesso sono rimaste indietro di secoli: utilizzando footprint ristretti finiscono con il confinare a limiti terrestri di 200 anni fa la tecnologia satellitare che altrimenti sarebbe illimitata.

TELE-satellite è nata nel 1981 ed è oggi la rivista professionale per il mercato del satellite più antica, più diffusa e più letta nel mondo. TELE-satellite viene sfogliata da oltre 250.000 professionisti del settore in tutto il mondo ed è disponibile sia in forma stampata, sia online. www.TELE-satellite.com

Ma questi sono limiti creati artificialmente. Siamo nel 21esimo secolo dove satelliti e fibre ottiche rappresentano le tecnologie della nostra epoca. Entrambe rendono nulle le distanze. Fibra ottica e satellite sono le tecnologie di un mondo globale e privo di frontiere!

Alexander Wiese P.S.: La mia stazione radio preferita del mese: “BBC 6 Music” su ASTRA 2D (28E) 11.954H con l’assenza quasi completa degli ultimi successi; purtroppo, i DJ amano sentirsi chiacchierare tra loro.

FEATURE

Pay TV

Decoding of Encrypted Content Thomas Haring

The currently used DVB standard provides for encrypted channels to be decoded according to the following procedure: A subscriber receives a smart card from their content provider. This smart card is equipped with a key that is required to decode encrypted channels and/or programs. The relevant key is sent to the card via satellite. As each card features a unique serial number content providers are in a position to activate or deactivate each individual smart card as necessary. In order to decode the encrypted transport stream transmitted by the satellite a code is required which is regenerated every few seconds. This code is calculated directly by the CI module or – in case a proprietary receiver with built-in card reader is used – by the internal chipset of the box, using a number of different parameters which include – among others – the key that is stored on the smart card.

Future standard: ■ CI Plus

Pay TV content can be decoded either by proprietary receivers – which means receivers that are speciﬁcally designed for a certain system or provider – or by using a common interface (CI). Some content providers such as Sky Digital in the United Kingdom provide proprietary receivers and consequently force their customers to only use certain approved receiver models which feature an integrated smart card reader and an internal chipset on the main board that takes care of decoding encrypted signals. This type of encryption holds a number of beneﬁts for providers (easy change of encryption system, full control over which features are supported by proprietary receivers, etc.). Subscribers, on the other hand, are left with no choice and have to take what their provider deems right for them. For example, content providers are able to determine that recordings that are saved on the internal hard disk cannot be transferred to external storage media such as DVDs. Or even some EPG features may be blocked, such as searching for programs on channels that are not part of the subscribed package. End users have no way of selecting alternative receivers

that might offer all the features they are looking for. If, however, a content provider allows the use of CI (common interface) modules, subscribers are free to use the provided smart card in any receiver they like, provided it is compatible with the CI standard. This option gives full control to the user rather than the provider, as any CI compatible receiver can be used, and whenever new features become available a new receiver can be bought and used. The so-called common interface is an interface based on PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card Association).

nel everything works smoothly and no problems should arise. While a subscriber is watching pay TV the provider is constantly transmitting new keys to the smartcard so that the decoding process is not interrupted. The advent of PVR receivers and the possibility to save the transport stream of a digital channel directly onto a hard disk has revealed some weaknesses of the decoding process. In general, a smart card can only generate the required code for channels that are transmitted on a particular transponder, which means that

on their hard disk as well. This means that the (second) encrypted transport stream is saved in an unprocessed format and as soon as a user calls up the recorded

It measures 10 by 5.4 by 0.4 mm and is available for a whole range of encryption systems including Irdeto, Viaccess, Mediaguard, Nagravision and Cryptoworks. A CI module simply has to be inserted into the corresponding slot on the receiver and instantly adds the option of pay TV reception with a valid smart card. Table 1 lists the most widely used encryption systems and whether CI modules are available for them or not.

Everyday use As long as a standard CI receiver is used for watching an encrypted chan-

while it is possible to decode two channels simultaneously (one for watching live, the other for recording), these two channels need to be on the same transponder. If they are on different transponders, only one channel can be decoded while the recorded channel is saved with encryption in place, because the CI module can only deal with one transponder at a time. If you want to solve this problem you can of course use more than one smart card and CI module, but quite honestly, who is able or willing to afford that? That’s why almost all PVR receivers are designed in a way that allows storing encrypted content

program it is dealt with as if it came right from the satellite, and it is decoded on the ﬂy by sending the data from the hard disk to the CI module ﬁrst. While this is a solution that certainly has its merits, it also comes with a major drawback: Content providers change the key on their smart cards at regular intervals, and once this has happened the CI module is no longer able to generate the code required to decode data that was stored before the key change. Depending on the provider the key change intervals can range from several times a day to once every few months. The result, however, invariably stays the same and any recording not decoded by the time the smart card key is changed via satellite is lost for good. Some smart manufacturers quickly came up with a better solution: They allow decoding and re-saving an encrypted recording so that you end up with a decoded event that is saved on the internal hard disk and yours to view without limitation. While some receivers initiate this procedure automatically, others require manual activation. What happens in each case is that the encrypted recording is sent to the CI module for decoding and then stored again on the hard disk.

The use of a card splitter in combination with a second CI module is another way of working yourself around inherent smart card limitations. This way the smart card is used twofold by not inserting it into the receiver but into a dedicated control box instead which in turn is connected via cable or WLAN to two cards that are slotted into the CI modules in the receivers. This way two different pay channels can be recorded

simultaneously using only one smart card.

What does the future hold? Right now a lot of effort is focused on further developing the CI speciﬁcation with a project called CI Plus. This new standard will not be compatible with the current CI standard, which implies that

in future subscribers of pay TV using CI Plus will have to buy new receivers. What most clearly sets apart CI Plus from the current standard is its integrated copy protection mechanism which can make it impossible to copy recorded pay TV content from a receiver’s internal hard disk to any other storage medium. In addition, with CI Plus it will be possible to better protect children or minors from viewing unsuitable material. While the latter certainly is a most welcome development, imminent copy protection is a matter of heated debate. After all, even a single and perfectly legal copy of a recorded movie for private use will become a thing of the past if this feature is implemented. Users would be left with no choice but either to keep all recordings on their hard disk (which might eventually cause some storage capacity issues) or to wait until a movie they like is broadcast again. What the new CI Plus speciﬁcation suggests, however, is that content providers are free to decide themselves whether or not to activate these copy protection features. So let’s hope the rules of the marketplace will ﬁnally determine that only those providers will stay in business successfully that allow their subscribers to make a DVD or Blu-Ray copy of their favourite recording.

Il Futuro Inizia Adesso:

LNB Ottico da Global Invacom La Rivoluzione nella Ricezione Satellitare

Il tempo vola quando ci si diverte! Era proprio circa un anno fa quando TELE-satellite presentò in esclusiva un LNB ottico, un’invenzione di Global Invacom. Non è la prima volta che questa azienda, con sede a Stevenage, vicino a Londra, fa notizia nel campo della ricezione satellitare diretta, ma l’introduzione dell’LNB ottico diventerà senza dubbio una pietra miliare nello sviluppo della tecnologia in questo settore negli ultimi anni, se non addirittura decenni. Ma cos’ha di tanto rivoluzionario un LNB ottico?

Nel numero 04-05/2008 TELE-satellite pubblicò in esclusiva un articolo sulla prima dimostrazione pubblica ufﬁciale di un LNB ottico di Global Invacom

22 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

Sulle prime potreste pensare che si tratti di una nuova arma di Luke Skywalker, ma in realtà è una delle idee più ingegnose che ci sia capitato di vedere da diversi anni; un’idea che spazza via il principale problema della ricezione diretta della TV satellitare, ovvero l’attenuazione o la perdita di segnale sul cavo coassiale tra LNB e ricevitore, oltre a tutti i problemi legati alla distribuzione del segnale ad utenti multipli. Ma cos’ha di così speciale un LNB ottico? Innanzitutto vogliamo ricordarvi come funziona un normale LNB: esso riceve i segnali focalizzati dal satellite puntato dall’antenna, li converte in una diversa banda di frequenze e li invia lungo il cavo coassiale al sintonizzatore di un ricevitore satellitare. Dato che la frequenza a disposizione è limitata alla fascia da 950 a 2150 Mhz, è stato necessario ricorrere a due espedienti per poter ricevere l’intero spettro di frequenze di un satellite. Il primo è la polarizzazione del segnale che può essere per l’appunto polarizzato verticalmente o orizzontalmente. Su scala minore vengono anche utilizzati segnali polarizzati circolarmente (verso destra o verso sinistra). Non è necessario scendere ulteriormente in dettaglio sulla polarizzazione circolare; per gli scopi di questo articolo si comporta allo stesso modo. La tensione di controllo a 13 o 18 Volt trasportata sul cavo coassiale verso l’LNB indica se devono essere ricevuti da quest’ultimo i segnali polarizzati verticalmente (13V) oppure orizzontalmente (18V). Il secondo espediente è il segnale di controllo a 22 kHz che viene utilizzato per commutare tra le bande alta e bassa. La banda bassa copre la frequenza da 10,7 a 11,75 Ghz, mentre la banda alta da 11,8 a 12,75 Ghz. Se l’LNB “vede” il segnale

di controllo a 22 kHz inviato dal ricevitore, invia al tuner via cavo coassiale i segnali in banda alta. Se il tono a 22 kHz non è presente, l’LNB commuta sulla banda bassa. Alla fine vi sono quindi quattro possibili scenari (verticale o orizzontale in banda bassa e verticale o orizzontale in banda alta), ma solo uno di essi può essere utilizzato in un certo istante. Se si tratta di un impianto a singola antenna per un solo utente, tutto funziona a meraviglia. Ma nel momento in cui si vuole collegare alla stessa antenna più di un utilizzatore, ecco che affiorano i primi problemi. Se, ad esempio, l’utente “A” necessita che l’LNB si attivi nella banda bassa in verticale, chiunque altro sullo stesso impianto sarebbe costretto a ricevere segnali nella stessa banda bassa verticale e quindi il numero di canali disponibili risulterebbe estremamente limitato. In realtà una tale configurazione non ha senso: nessuno degli utilizzatori si divertirebbe a guardare la TV a queste condizioni. Fino ad oggi questo tipo di problema è stato risolto uti-

lizzando LNB con fino ad otto uscite indipendenti; ciascun ricevitore collegato è così in grado di funzionare in modo del tutto separato dagli altri qualunque banda o polarizzazione siano richieste. Se invece sono coinvolti più di otto utilizzatori, entrano in gioco i multiswitch. In questo caso si utilizza un LNB Quattro dotato appunto di quattro uscite dedicate a ciascuna combinazione banda/polarizzazione. Questi segnali vengono poi distribuiti a quanti utenti si desidera. Ma non è tutto semplice come sembra. Il cavo coassiale utilizzato con i vari multiswitch necessari alla distribuzione del segnale porta con sé un’attenuazione del segnale che non può essere ignorata. Fino a quando si parla di 8 o 10

uscite l’attenuazione può in massima parte essere considerata trascurabile, ma con 20, 30 o anche 40 uscite, il problema può diventare piuttosto significativo. E qui entra in gioco l’LNB ottico. Un circuito presente all’interno dell’LNB converte le quattro combinazioni banda/polarizzazione in quattro diversi intervalli di frequenza tra 0,95 e 5,45 Ghz. Dopodiché il segnale RF viene convertito in segnale digitale e trasmesso da un laser su un cavo in fibra ottica. Da qui il nome LNB ottico. All’altro capo del cavo in fibra ottica il fascio di luce entra in un apparecchio convertitore chiamato GTU (Gateway Termination Unit, Unità Terminale di Transito) dove viene ritrasformato in un segnale riconoscibile da

qualsiasi normale ricevitore satellitare. Questi GTU di Global Invacom sono disponibili in versione Twin, Quattro o Quad. Mentre le versioni Twin e Quad vanno collegate direttamente ad un ricevitore, ciascuna uscita della versione Quattro fornisce invece una delle quattro combinazioni banda/polarizzazione con lo scopo di alimentare un multiswitch. Questo significa che un cavo in fibra ottica può trasportare l’intera gamma di frequenze di un satellite. Tutto ciò che occorre è un cavo in fibra ottica spesso 3 mm. Dato che il fascio di luce contiene l’intero spettro di frequenza, è possibile collegare quanti ricevitori si vuole, ciascuno dei quali funzionerà in modo del tutto indipendente dagli altri; il tutto con un solo cavo in fibra ottica. Anche se, ad esempio, un grande condominio decide di distribuire i segnali via satellite a ciascun appartamento, l’LNB ottico porta con sé enormi possibilità. Da questo punto di vista sarebbe sufficiente stendere un cavo in fibra ottica dall’LNB ad un punto centrale di distribuzione. Da qui verrebbe suddiviso in ulteriori cavi in fibra ottica, ciascuno portato ad un piano del condominio. Sul piano, il cavo verrebbe ulteriormente suddiviso e portato all’interno di ogni appartamento. L’utente finale potrebbe poi collegare non solo un unico apparecchio, ma, ad esempio, un PVR a doppio tuner in soggiorno, un ricevitore nella stanza dei bambini ed un altro ancora in camera da letto. Se si utilizzasse il cavo coassiale, per ottenere lo stesso risultato ciascun appartamento necessiterebbe di quattro cavi provenienti dal multiswitch. Non

difficile

cogliere

l’enorme potenziale che possono avere gli LNB ottici. Essi possono notevolmente semplificare e ridurre i costi di grandi impianti di ricezione e distribuzione. Si aprono anche nuove possibilità per gli utilizzatori singoli. Conosciamo tutti questo problema: avendo predisposto un impianto di ricezione alcuni anni fa, chi si sarebbe immaginato il boom dei PVR a doppio tuner? La maggior parte degli impianti dispone di un unico cavo e, in molti casi, non c’è proprio lo spazio per aggiungerne un secondo nei condotti. Fino ad oggi si doveva ricorrere a soluzioni funzionanti solo decentemente o accontentarsi della funzione passante del ricevitore. In futuro sarà invece sufficiente sostituire il cavo esistente con uno in fibra ottica per poter utilizzare contemporaneamente quattro o anche più ricevitori in modo del tutto indipendente l’uno dall’altro.

Installazione

L’LNB ottico è leggermente più grande ed allungato di un LNB standard. La cosa non sorprende visto che all’interno deve trovare spazio tutta l’elettronica per produrre un segnale ottico. Sotto all’LNB vi sono due connettori: l’uscita ottica per il cavo in fibra ottico ed un connettore “F”. Quest’ultimo non viene però utilizzato per la trasmissione dei segnali, ma come sorgente di alimentazione dell’LNB in quanto il cavo in fibra ottica non può essere sfruttato per questo scopo. Global Invacom ha scelto un connettore “F” per una buona ragione. Certamente si sarebbe potuto utilizzare un classico connettore di alimentazione, ma perché andare su questa strada dove è già presente un cavo coassiale? Molti impianti esistenti verranno infatti convertiti per utilizzare un LNB ottico e

26 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

quindi ha senso utilizzare il connettore “F”. Il cavo coassiale esistente si collega al connettore “F” sull’LNB, l’altro capo al trasformatore fornito che, a sua volta, va naturalmente inserito in una presa di corrente. Il cavo coassiale diventa quindi la sorgente di alimentazione dell’LNB. A differenza del cavo coassiale che è relativamente insensibile all’accumulo di sporco, la pulizia del cavo in fibra ottica è invece molto più critica. Il problema non è sul cavo stesso, che si trova all’interno di una maglia metallica che aiuta ad evitare che il cavo venga piegato, attorcigliato o comunque deformato, ma sui connettori: questi richiedono una pulizia assoluta. Per questa ragione, Global Invacom fornisce uno speciale panno di pulizia che deve essere passato sulle estremità del cavo in fibra ottica prima di collegarlo all’LNB o all’apparecchio convertitore. E, sempre a proposito di cavi, ricordiamo che, non appena la vendita dell’LNB ottico sarà iniziata, Global Invacom offrirà anche cavi prefabbricati. Le misure saranno di 1, 3, 5 e 10 metri oltre ad ulteriori lunghezze fino a 200 metri. Mediante un apposito adattatore, questi cavi prefabbricati potranno essere collegati tra loro in modo da ottenere qualsiasi lunghezza sia necessaria. Gloabl Invacom metterà anche a disposizione il cavo in fibra ottica al metro senza alcun connettore. In questo caso occorrerà però un attrezzo speciale per fissare il connettore ottico. Il cavo in fibra ottica, esattamente come i normali cavi, è ulteriormente protetto da sporco e umidità con un rivestimento in gomma che circonda la maglia metallica protettiva. Questo strato esterno è disponibile in diversi colori o, se necessario, può anche essere verniciato per adattarsi all’ambiente. Inoltre, è realizzato in mate-

riale LSZG che non produce alcun fumo velenoso nel caso dovesse prendere fuoco. Un altro importante vantaggio della tecnologia in fibra ottica è che è completamente immune a qualsiasi interferenza elettromagnetica. I cavi in fibra ottica possono quindi essere stesi anche molto vicini a forti campi elettrici senza alcun problema. Nel palazzo di TELE-satellite non esiste niente del genere, ma per essere preparati a future applicazioni abbiamo steso un cavo in fibra ottica di 50 metri partendo dal tetto giù fino al nostro laboratorio utilizzando il condotto esistente insieme ai cavi elettrici e ai cavi dati. Il diametro ridotto del cavo in fibra ottica è stato di grande aiuto: circa tre cavi in fibra ottica occupano lo stesso spazio richiesto da un cavo coassiale. Inoltre, essendo molto robusto grazie alla sua maglia metallica, siamo stati

Poi, abbiamo portato il cavo coassiale fino alla presa di corrente più vicina per alimentare l’LNB. Dopo aver rapidamente pulito l’estremità del cavo in fibra ottica, l’abbiamo inserito nell’apparecchio convertitore al quale, mediante uno spezzone di cavo coassiale, abbiamo collegato anche un analizzatore di segnale. Siamo subito rimasti impressionati dai primi risultati: indipendentemente dalla frequenza ricevuta o dal satellite puntato, l’LNB ottico era un passo avanti in termini di qualità del segnale. I risultati non sono cambiati nemmeno ripartendo il cavo in quattro e collegandolo a quattro ricevitori in funzione contemporaneamente. I valori più elevati di MER su HOTBIRD a 13° Est erano chiaramente riconoscibili, così come i picchi di segnale nello spettro. I risultati forniti dall’LNB

ottico sono stati talmente impressionanti che il nostro normale LNB con figura di rumore 0,3 dB, insieme a 50 metri di cavo coassiale, non poteva stare assolutamente al passo. Secondo il produttore, la possibilità di derivare il cavo in fibra ottica è attualmente limitata a 32 uscite. Questo limite è dovuto all’intensità del segnale emesso dal laser. Per applicazioni particolari Global Invacom può generare un segnale laser più forte in modo tale da poter incrementare il numero di uscite secondo le necessità. L’attenuazione del segnale estremamente ridotta lungo il cavo in fibra ottica di 0,3 dB per 1000 metri (!) ha cer-

tamente un ruolo determinante.

Applicazioni dell’LNB ottico

Se l’idea di Global Invacom avrà successo non sarà più necessario utilizzare cavi coassiali per la ricezione satellitare diretta e onestamente non vediamo alcuna ragione per cui questa visione non possa diventare realtà. Il cavo in fibra ottica non è più costoso di un coassiale di buona qualità. L’LNB ottico è in pratica identico ai comuni LNB ed anche il dover fornire l’alimentazione via cavo coassiale potrà diventare la norma. Ma non solo, i cavi in fibra

in grado di inserirlo nel condotto senza alcuna difficoltà superando anche angoli inferiori ai 90°.

Uso Quotidiano

Sistemato il cavo in fibra ottica dal tetto dell’ufficio, abbiamo sostituito il vecchio LNB standard con figura di rumore 0,3 dB montato sulla nostra antenna offset con l’LNB ottico.

ottica possono essere utilizzati ovunque; non importa se devono passare vicino a linee ad alta tensione o a potenti motori elettrici. Global Invacom ha anche pensato ai clienti che ricevono segnali DVB-T via cavo coassiale: grazie ad uno speciale adattatore, il cavo in fibra ottica può essere utilizzato anche in questo caso.

Vantaggi dell’LNB Ottico Il punto di forza dell’LNB ottico è che tutte e quattro le combinazioni di banda/polarizzazione possono essere trasmesse contemporaneamente lungo l’unico cavo. Questo fatto porta con sé il vantaggio che il segnale può essere derivato secondo necessità e che ogni uscita rimane del tutto indipendente dalle altre. Un altro grosso vantaggio sono le distanze estremamente lunghe che i cavi in fibra ottica possono coprire senza incorrere in

significative attenuazioni di segnale. I cavi sono di dimensioni ridotte e risulta più facile inserirli nei condotti. Grazie alle perdite estremamente basse, sulle lunghe distanze risulta significativamente migliore del cavo coassiale in termini di qualità del segnale. Con segnali deboli questo può fare la differenza tra ricevere un segnale e non riceverlo affatto. Si possono coprire anche diversi chilometri senza perdite di segnale significative. Global Invacom ha già condotto alcun test pratici in proposito. Inoltre, il sistema ottico ha costi di materiale inferiori rispetto ad impianti che utilizzano costosi multiswitch.

Prezzi

Quanto costa convertire un impianto al sistema ottico? In molti casi l’installazione di un LNB ottico può effettivamente portare ad un rispar-

Occorre un solo LNB da circa 200 Euro. Il materiale necessario per collegare due o quattro ricevitori è anch’esso intorno ai 200 Euro. I cavi in fibra ottica necessari costano un po’ meno di 2 Euro al metro (le misure più corte con i connettori costano di più al metro rispetto alle misure maggiori che sono più economiche). Poi vi sono i partitori ottici che sono sui 30 Euro per uno a due vie, circa 70 Euro per uno a quattro vie e fino a 160 Euro per un partitore ad otto vie. L’installatore dovrà anche sostenere un costo iniziale per le apparecchiature di misurazione.

Uno Sguardo al Futuro

Per Global Invacom l’introduzione sul mercato dell’LNB ottico rappresenta solamente il primo di una lunga serie di passi. Al momento, il segnale percorre il tragitto dall’LNB al convertitore via fibra ottica, ma la restante distanza fino al sintonizzatore è ancora coperta su cavo coassiale. Per questa ragione Global Invacom ha già iniziato i contatti con i fabbricanti di sintonizzatori per arrivare ad integrare la tecnologia in fibra ottica direttamente nel ricevitore. Per l’utente finale questo significa che non sarà più necessario alcun convertitore e che il segnale potrà arrivare in formato digitale direttamente al chipset del ricevitore.

Rivestimento Metallico per Proteggere il Cavo in Fibra Ottica

28 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

Come è lecito attendersi,

Gloabal Invacom sta guardando ulteriormente avanti e dispone già della tecnologia per trasportare non solo i segnali satellitari, ma anche telefonia, Internet e servizi locali di rete. Ciò significherebbe che TV, ricevitore, PC, telefono, ecc., non solo potrebbero essere serviti da un unico cavo, ma che tutti questi dispositivi potrebbero comunicare tra loro attraverso la fibra ottica. Il controllo di tutti questi apparecchi assumerebbe un significato del tutto nuovo. L’LNB ottico può dimostrare di essere un formidabile concorrente del classico sistema a cavo coassiale. Chi mai potrebbe preferire un numero limitato di canali prefissati quando potrebbe invece ricevere liberamente l’intero spettro di frequenza di un satellite con 1000 canali gratuiti? E grazie all’accesso ad Internet e alla telefonia mediante la tecnologia a fibra ottica di Global Invacom, le soluzioni Triple Play via cavo perdono di importanza. Un LNB ottico consente la trasmissione di questi tre servizi di comunicazione in modo economicamente più efficiente verso tutte le abitazioni che si vogliono raggiungere, anche su lunghe distanze e con maggiori possibilità di scelta per l’utente finale. Dobbiamo anche ricordare che la tecnologia in fibra ottica di Global Invacom potrebbe rivoluziona in futuro l’accesso ad Internet in quanto nessun altro tipo di connessione è oggi veloce quanto un cavo in fibra ottica, senza dimenticare che lo stesso cavo può anche trasportare i segnali della TV via satellite. Siamo testimoni dell’alba di una nuova era nella ricezione satellitare diretta e tra soli pochi anni potremo ammirare i cavi coassiali nei musei anziché nelle nostre antenne e nei nostri ricevitori grazie ad aziende fortemente innovative come Global Invacom!

TEST REPORT

HD Satellite Receiver with PVR

AB IPBox 91HD

Un moderno e potente PVR HD basato su Linux non deve per forza essere caro Stiamo vivendo tempi difficili. È appena successo che una crisi economica mondiale ci ha colpiti proprio nel mezzo del boom dell’HDTV. Chiunque ha cominciato a risparmiare su tutto quello che era possibile. L’HDTV potrebbe sembrare un lusso in queste circostanze. Potrebbe significare che l’uccello, che ultimamente volava così in alto, possa avere le ali tarpate? Per nulla! ABCom, l’esperto slovacco nella produzione di ricevitori basati su Linux, offre una grande soluzione anti-crisi. Solo perché adesso il reddito è inferiore a quanto eravamo abituati, la qualità dell’immagine non ne deve risentire. Abbiamo avuto l’opportunità di testare la loro aggiunta più recente alla linea dei ricevitori HD, l’AB IPBox 91HD. Avendo dei piacevoli ricordi a proposito dei modelli top dei ricevitori ABCom, eravamo eccitati all’idea di vedere a cosa assomigliasse il componente economico della famiglia.

Dopo aver aperto il pacco che era arrivato al nostro laboratorio di test, abbiamo subito pensato – c’è un errore? Abbiamo già testato i 250 e 350 Prime di ABCom, ed il pannello frontale del nuovo box appare esattamente lo stesso. Ma dopo un’osservazione più meticolosa, l’occhio curioso viene catturato dalle sigle HD e HDMI poste sul ricevitore, che stanno a dire che ci troviamo tra le mani qualcosa di assolutamente nuovo! Il pannello frontale dà realmente una sensazione di dejavu, coi suoi sette pulsanti nel suo mezzo (Menu, Exit, OK, Sinistra, Destra, Su e Giù), come pure un pulsante per lo Standby a ferro di cavallo sul lato sinistro. Il lettore di smar-

tcard sulla destra è posto per fare felici i fan della Pay-tv. Ed infine, ma non per ultimo, il display a quattro simboli a segmenti nel caso foste interessati al numero del canale corrente oppure a qualche alta informazione di servizio. Il pannello posteriore potrebbe sembrare sulle prime un po’ asettico. Ma cosa ci occorre veramente al giorno d’oggi per la ricezione dell’HDTV? Un output HDMI? Lo avete. Un output audio S/PDIF per un suono perfetto? È qui. Naturalmente, il tutto non funzionerebbe senza un segnale satellitare, per cui qui abbiamo un input LNB con un output passante. Applicazioni multimediali e PVR? Un’interfaccia USB è proprio dove vi aspettate che

sia. Oh, ancora non vi va di dimenticare completamente l’SDTV con Risoluzione Standard? Ok, c’è un output singolo SCART, abbastanza per una compatibilità retroattiva. Ma non dimenticate di collegare il tutto alla vostra rete casalinga, poiché l’AB IPBox 91HD è un ricevitore basato su Linux, e vi perdereste un

sacco di divertimento se non lo faceste. A causa della sua alimentazione, il 91HD necessita di essere adeguatamente raffreddato, è per questo che abbiamo anche qui una ventola di raffreddamento. Fortunatamente molto più silenziosa rispetto al campione del 910HD testato, ma, sfortunatamente, ancora chiaramente udibile. Col telecomando è possibile richiamare facilmente tutte le funzioni dell’apparecchio, ma sarebbe stato carino mantenere la possibilità di controllare con quello un apparecchio TV (come con tutti i precedenti modelli ABCom testati), come pure il pulsante che dà accesso diretto, con un solo clic, alle registrazioni PVR.

Eccetto queste cose lo si può caratterizzare positivamente: è diventato più leggero e tutti i suoi pulsanti sono facilmente raggiungibili solo con un dito. Il manuale d’uso del 91HD mantiene le buone tradizioni. Difficilmente potete desiderare delle spiegazioni più dettagliate di tutte le funzioni basilari del ricevitore. Ci sono pure dei suggerimenti interessanti, se vi piace andare oltre la semplice ricezione satellitare. Anche un principiante difficilmente si perderebbe. La confezione contiene anche un CD con un sacco di applicazioni per il vostro ricevitore, inclusi programmi per l’aggiornamento software, modifica dei canali e così via. Non è più necessario andare a caccia di quelli su vari siti web.

Installazione

Quando il 91HD viene acceso per la prima volta, l’utente si trova in un assistente d’installazione che non differisce granché da quello dei modelli HD top di ABCom. Veramente, il suo software è tanto buono quanto quello dei suoi fratelli più anziani, ma per prima cosa impostiamo il linguaggio preferito sullo schermo di benvenuto. Il menu su schermo può essere mostrato in inglese, russo, francese, italiano, olandese, tedesco, danese, slovacco, ceco, ungherese, norvegese, polacco, portoghese, spagnolo, svedese, greco, turco, coreano, croato, bosniaco, serbo, bulgaro, romeno, finlandese o ucraino. La stessa scelta qui l’avete per la lingua audio preferita come anche il set di caratteri per il teletext. Il passo successivo vi consente di selezionare il vostro fuso orario, le opzioni per l’ora legale e se preferite impostare manualmente l’orario corrente piuttosto che lasciare che il ricevitore lo aggiorni automaticamente dal flusso satellitare. Il terzo passo ci porta più vicini a ciò che riguarda la ricezione satellitare. Per primo dovete aggiungere i satelliti ricevibili premendo il pul-

sante rosso. Le frequenze per la LOF possono essere inserite liberamente, come pure le infinite opzioni DiSEqC da selezionare, dal momento che il ricevitore supporta tutte le versioni di questo protocollo, da 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 all’USALS. Una volta che tutto il lavoro è stato svolto qui, siete solo ad una pressione del pulsante giallo lontani dalla ricerca dei canali. Effettivamente, ABCom ha preparato qui per noi alcune sorprese. Per esempio, potete ora scegliere tra Scansione di Default, Scansione Intelligente e Scansione di Reset. Possono non essere significative durante il processo di installazione, ma potrebbero risparmiarvi un bel po’ di mal di testa più avanti. La prima analizza semplicemente il satellite, aggiungendo i nuovi canali al termine della lista principale. La Scansiona Intelligente resetta completamente la lista principale, mantenendo quella dei favoriti, analizza il satellite, quindi aggiorna la vostra lista di favoriti con i parametri attuali dei canali. Molto pratica! E l’ultima, Scansione di Reset, semplicemente rimuove tutti i dati dei canali da tutte le liste ed inizia la ricerca. I DXer più puri sarebbero felici per la sensibilità del sintonizzatore DVB-S/S2 del 91HD, ed anche per le sue performance SCPC. Il nostro canale SCPC di test del giorno - Jamawar su EUROBIRD 2, con un SR di appena 1780, è stato processato senza difficoltà! Ma mentre ci troviamo ancora in fase di installazione, avrebbe più senso decidere quanto veloce vi piacerebbe vedere la prima immagine sul vostro schermo TV. Se preferite piuttosto una lista più aggiornata dei canali, effettuate la ricerca regolare dei canali, che, per una posizione satellitare con 86 transponder usata nel nostro test, è stata completata in 5 minuti e 46 secondi (significativamente più veloce di prima!), risultante in 1188 canali TV e 217

canali Radio. Ad ogni modo, se trovate anche questa troppo lunga, premete il tasto verde per un “Caricamento Veloce”. L’immagine ed il suono “live” appariranno sul vostro schermo in pochi secondi!

Uso Quotidiano Il menu di sistema e la funzionalità utente del 91HD è praticamente uguale al 900HD o 910HD, discostandosi di poco per alcune minori limitazioni hardware. La lista dei canali è ancora caricata come funzionalità, permettendo di ordinarla con un solo clic alfabeticamente, per FTA/ codificati, provider o satellite. Se è attivato l’ordinamento alfabetico, è semplice selezionare la prima lettera del canale a cui siete interessati, selezionatela solamente sul telecomando nel modo in cui lo fareste sul vostro cellulare nello scrivere un SMS. La pressione del pulsante giallo vi consente di saltare esattamente alla lettera successiva se qualcosa andasse male. Premendo “i” ed inserendo la password (0000 di default) si ha l’accesso a poter cancellare, nascondere, bloccare, rinominare e spostare i canali, come pure al nostro preferito di sempre – regolare il volume dell’audio di default

per i canali. La pressione del pulsante “FAV” passa alla modalità della lista di favoriti, qui sono preprogrammati i soliti gruppi di default “Sports”, “Drama”, “News”, “Movie” e “Music”, l’utente è libero di aggiungere quanti nuovi gruppi desidera.

nome del provider, la lista dei sistemi di codifica utilizzati e la possibilità di impostare dei “segnalibri” per la registrazione, nel caso il canale venga registrato dal PVR o se avete attivata la funzione di visione differita.

L’aggiunta di nuovi canali alla lista dei favoriti avviene in una pratica finestra con due pannelli, semplicemente copiate quelli desiderati da sinistra a destra e voilà, avete tutti i canali che volete in uno stesso posto, senza bisogno di ricercarli più volte all’interno della lista principale. E ricordate, se la scegliete la “Scansione Intelligente” la prossima volta che desiderate cercare nuovi canale, la vostra lista di favoriti non andrà perduta!

Nel caso del 91HD, possiamo solamente collegare il disco fisso alla porta USB sul pannello posteriore del ricevitore. Inizialmente ciò ha sollevato alcune discussioni qui nel laboratorio di test se questo fosse sufficiente per le registrazioni in HD, ad ogni modo, numerosi test non hanno dato luogo ad ulteriori preoccupazioni. La perfetta immagine HD che ottenevamo durante la ricezione regolare veniva riprodotta a partire dal disco fisso senza interruzioni o difetti.

Se premete lo stesso pulsante “i” una volta al di fuori della lista dei canali, richiamerà la vecchia buona barra informativa, mostrando il numero del canale, nome, satellite, ora corrente, disponibilità del teletext, formato della trasmissione come anche la risoluzione SD/HD. L’angolo inferiore destro contiene le informazioni riguardanti la frequenza del transponder ed il SR. Un secondo clic richiama una finestra più grande, col

È semplice dare inizio ad una registrazione, semplice fermarla, ma, sfortunatamente, non tanto semplice ritornare ad essa quando è necessario. L’utente deve prima andare sul menu principale, scegliere “Multimedia”, quindi “File Registrati”. Nei due modelli precedenti di ricevitori HD ABCom questa finestra poteva venire raggiunta premendo un singolo pulsante sul telecomando. Eccettuato questo inconveniente, il PVR è

36 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

buono quanto lo erano i precedenti. La registrazione può essere sia attivata cliccando il pulsante a “cerchio rosso” sul telecomando, sia selezionando lo spettacolo desiderato all’interno dell’EPG, sia accedendo ad uno speciale sottomenu “Pianificazione Registrazioni”. Non importa che sia in SD oppure in HD, la partita più importante dell’anno non verrà più persa, anche se avete un sacco di lavori urgenti da fare! Anche l’EPG nel 91HD è realizzata nella buona vecchia modalità a due varianti. Premendo il pulsante “EPG” una volta viene richiamata una lista dei prossimi eventi per il canale correntemente selezionato, il secondo clic apre una vera guida dei programmi – vedrete una grossa griglia coi titoli degli eventi del canale corrente e di quelli vicini. La programmazione può essere zoomata ingrandendola e rimpicciolendola, ed è limitata soltanto dalla quantità di informazioni che l’emittente è desiderosa di condividere. Se dovesse accadere che non troviate uno spettacolo che si adatti al vostro umore corrente, probabilmente è il momento giusto per scoprire la ricca quantità di funzioni

che il 91HD possiede, che non sono direttamente connesse alla ricezione satellitare. Dal momento che questo è un sistema basato su Linux, possono venire installati diversi plug-in, che vi permettono di giocare a tetris, sudoku o pingpong, controllare le e-mail oppure le previsioni meteorologiche. Ricordate che vi avevamo consigliato di utilizzare la meravigliosa presa LAN e collegare il ricevitore alla vostra rete casalinga o direttamente a internet? Qui comincia veramente ad avere un senso, poiché se l’emittente non è stata abbastanza accurata nell’aggiungere correttamente le informazioni all’EPG, un plug-in speciale cerca le programmazioni richieste su internet. Oppure, veramente una grande scoperta, ora è possibile ascoltare le stazioni radio trasmesse per mezzo di internet proprio attraverso il ricevitore! Dimenticatevi di restare in silenzio qualora il cattivo tempo renda impossibile la ricezione satellitare per un po’ di tempo! E questi sono solamente quelli inclusi nel firmware ufficiale, esistono un sacco di altri plugin, è sufficiente guardarsi intorno con google, e le funzionalità del vostro ricevitore andranno oltre la vostra immaginazione!

Funzioni Multimediali

Anche se internet è inaccessibile dal vostro ricevitore, potete ancora visualizzare foto, riprodurre MP3s o film dal vostro disco fisso. Durante il test del 910HD abbiamo notato che alcune volte l’audio ed il video non erano perfettamente sincronizzati; questo problema è stato risolto abbastanza elegantemente nella versione più recente del firmware, anche per il 91HD.

Modiﬁca dei transponder

Se iniziate la riproduzione del vostro film preferito e notate che manca la sincronizzazione, premete semplicemente le frecce “Canale Su” o “Canale Giù” perché l’audio arrivi in anticipo

oppure in ritardo. Il passo è 100 ms, così dopo pochi clic avrete un abbinamento perfetto. Il solo inconveniente è che se mettete il video in pausa oppure avanzate velocemente, la selezione viene

Sebbene sia comprensibile per un modello economico, sono state tralasciate alcune cose che sarebbe stato piacevole mantenere, come una porta E-SATA per il collegamento di un disco fisso oppure un pulsante sul telecomando per un accesso diretto alle registrazioni PVR.

Aggiungete la Ricezione della TV Digitale al Vostro PC Nel corso degli ultimi anni uno sviluppo in particolare ha acquistato sempre maggiore popolarità: l’incorporazione dei ricevitori digitali nei PC e naturalmente i ricevitori digitali con un PC integrato. Stiamo tenendo sotto osservazione lo sviluppo di set-top box che, oltre alla normale funzione di ricezione via satellite di contenuti TV e radio digitali, può anche connettersi ad internet così che si possano riprodurre anche video clip o l’IPTV. Queste centrali multimediali casalinghe sono in grado anche di mostrare immagini, riprodurre musica e vi permettono perfino di svagarvi con qualche gioco. Allo stesso tempo, sono sempre più le abitazioni che fremono all’idea della ricezione tramite PC. Esistono diverse ragioni per questo: la ricezione della TV satellitare attraverso un PC è più economica rispetto che con un ricevitore a sé stante, la registrazione di contenuti digitali può avvenire direttamente sul disco fisso del PC – ciò fa risparmiare tempo all’utente quando masterizza un DVD, in quanto i dati non devono essere trasferiti prima su un PC. Esistono poi famiglie che, nonostante posseggano un monitor LCD che utilizzano coi loro PC, possiedono ancora una vecchia TV utilizzata per la normale visione della TV. E, dal momento che guardare la TV ad alta definizione senza uno schermo LCD ad alta risoluzione oppure una TV al plasma non ha senso, anche questo tipo di contenuto viene visto attraverso un PC.

L’azienda taiwanese TeVii ha riconosciuto questo trend molto tempo fa ed ha rafforzato il proprio sviluppo di soluzioni per PC per la ricezione di TV e radio. Non è affatto la prima volta che TELE-satellite presenta un prodotto TeVii; uno di questi è stato il box TeVii S650 USB. Questa volta si tratta della nuova scheda per PC S470. Questo nuovo modello non viene collegato esternamente; viene invece collegato direttamente alla scheda madre

42 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

attraverso uno slot PCI-E. Questo è una modifica del ben noto slot PCI , in quanto ora sono possibili velocità di trasmissione molto maggiori; perfetto per la ricezione dell’HDTV. Gli slot PCI-E prevedono due altezze differenti, e TeVii fornisce anche la S470 con entrambi i collegamenti: quello standard per i PC normali e quello con profilo più basso per i nuovi PC slim. Abbiamo iniziato coll’installare la scheda in un PC tipico. Per noi si trattava di un vecchio Pentium IV 3 GHz PC con 1GB di RAM. Stando al produttore, i requisiti minimi per il PC sono 2 Ghz di CPU per l’SDTV o 2,4 GHz per l’HDTV, 512 MB di RAM per l’SDTV e 1GB per l’HDTV, come pure una scheda grafica con 128 MB di memoria. Il nostro PC di test ricadeva proprio all’interno di questi requisiti. Naturalmente, la scheda TeVii supporta i sistemi operativi Windows XP e Vista, come anche Linux. Il software MyTeVii è compatibile solamente con Windows; gli utenti Linux devono trovare alternative adatte in internet. Ci ha fatto felici vedere che TeVii ha incluso i driver per Windows 64-bit. La scheda TeVii viene spedita in una scatola maneggevole. Sono inclusi un telecomando con le batterie, un ricevitore ad infrarossi, un CD col software ed un pieghevole con le istruzioni per l’installazione.

La TeVii S470 è compatibile plug&play e per il nostro PC di test ciò ha significato installare la scheda nello slot PCI-E disponibile e quindi rimettere il coperchio sul PC. Abbiamo velocemente collegato un cavo satellitare proveniente da uno dei nostri distributori di segnale all’input IF sulla scheda e, ultimo ma non per ultimo, collegato il ricevitore ad infrarossi. Adesso era il momento di giocare.

Dopo aver acceso il PC, Windows XP ha trovato immediatamente il nuovo hardware. Invece di lasciare che Windows cercasse i driver corrispondenti, è stato inserito il CD nel driver appropriato. È apparso l’assistente di installazione ed ha iniziato con l’installazione dei driver necessari come anche il software MyTeVii. A questo punto è anche possibile selezionare se installare solamente i driver ed il software MyTeVii oppure debba essere installato anche il programma TeViiData. Questo programma consente l’utilizzo del servizio internet via satellite, ma rimandiamo i dettagli più avanti. Dopo aver cliccato sul pulsante OK, ci vogliono solo pochi secondi prima che tutti i dati richiesti trovino la propria strada verso il nostro PC di test. Se per qualsiasi ragione non sia di vostro gradimento il software TeVii, può essere trovata sul CD di installazione una versione demo di ProgDVB.

Installazione Software

Quando il programma TeVii viene lanciato per la prima volta, accoglie inizialmente l’utente con uno schermo vuoto. Non troviamo attivata una lista di canali, né il software chiede all’utente di effettuare una scansione dei canali. Considerando che la TeVii S470 viene distribuita in tutto il mondo e che una lista di canali preprogrammata probabilmente avrebbe poco senso, sarebbe stato carino se l’utente fosse stato indirizzato verso una scansione dei canali automatica o manuale. La sviluppata interfaccia utente di TeVii ci fornisce un’impressione molto pulita e organizzata. Sul lato destro troviamo la lista dei canali ed i satelliti disponibili; il canale correntemente selezionato viene mostrato nella parte sinistra. Una barra per l’EPG nel basso dello schermo fornisce le informazioni riguardanti il canale correntemente sintonizzato. La dimensione della finestra di riproduzione può essere regolata a vostro piacimento; l’immagine TV può anche essere vista nella modalità a tutto schermo. Cliccando sul tasto destro del mouse si apre il menu Opzioni, dando accesso all’utente a tutte le imposta-

zioni necessarie. Lo stesso software TeVii è molto internazionale; può comunicare con l’utente in una varietà di linguaggi: inglese, francese, tedesco, arabo, cinese, finlandese, italiano, polacco, russo, spagnolo e svedese. Con così tante scelte, nessuno dovrebbe avere problemi nel trovare la lingua corrispondente. Il menu delle impostazioni arriva con una varietà di possibilità di opzioni ed impostazioni. Praticamente ogni aspetto del software può corrispondere ai requisiti dell’utente, come ad esempio, in quale modo il contenuto viene mostrato, il salvataggio e le operazioni sulla lista dei canali, il controllo degli LNB, l’utilizzo di monitor multipli, impostare le registrazioni e la visione differita, i codec video ed audio, il ricevitore ad infrarossi, i parametri per la visualizzazione dell’EPG ed alla fine, ma non per ultimo, un menu Esperto che fornisce l’accesso ai parametri di base del software. Nonostante tutte queste possibilità di impostazione, il menu Principale è rimasto chiaro e di facile comprensione. TeVii consegue ciò grazie all’architettura a finestre che fa parte di MS Windows. Non sarebbe stato possibile presentare in modo chiaro così tante impostazioni in un set top box standard.

Impostazioni per la Registrazione

Una volta che ci si è occupati di tutte le impostazioni necessarie, la scheda TeVii deve familiarizzare col sistema d’antenna con cui verrà utilizzata. Dal momento che la scheda lavora con tutti i differenti protocolli DiSEqC, può essere utilizzata con una tipica antenna multifeed (DiSEqC 1.0), un’antenna Wavefrontier con fino a 16 LNB (DiSEqC 1.1) come pure un sistema motorizzato (DiSEqC 1.2 e USALS) senza alcun problema. La S470 arriva con un’ampia selezione di satelliti preprogrammati che include 170 satelliti americani, europei e asiatici. Non capita molto spesso di vedere un ricevitore che giunge con così tanti satelliti tra cui da scegliere, che sono anche per la maggior parte molto aggiornati.

Impostazioni per i Professionisti

46 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

Grazie alla struttura dell’OSD di facile comprensione, è abbastanza semplice incrociare i parametri necessari (DiSEqC, LOF, ecc.) per ogni singolo satellite. È anche molto facile , con pochi clic del mouse, accedere, cancellare o modificare i transponder. Lo stesso vale per le impostazioni del satellite. Per essere sicuri che il segnale proveniente dall’LNB possa essere processato correttamente, è necessario fornire la corretta frequenza per l’oscillatore locale (LOF) e l’esatto punto di commutazione tra la banda bassa e quella alta. Il software MyTeVii arriva preprogrammato con un numero di LOF per le bande Ku e C e se capita che state utilizzando un LNB con una LOF non standard, può semplicemente essere inserita manualmente. Quando tutti i parametri del vostro sistema d’antenna sono stati inseriti, il passo seguente vi porta ad una scansione dei canali, a questo punto potete effettuare una scansione manuale del transponder oppure lasciare alla TeVii S470 la gestione di tutto il lavoro di scansione automaticamente. Dal momento che la S470 è una soluzione per PC, la dimensione della memoria dei canali è, per tutti gli scopi pratici, illimitata e quasi implora di essere riempita coi dati dei canali. La scheda è compatibile sia DVB-S sia DVB-S2 e quindi, in aggiunta alla modulazione QPSK in DVB-S, supporta anche l’8PSK in DVB-S2. L’impostazione “Auto” commuta da sola tra le due. Una scansione automatica di HOTBIRD a 13° est è stata completata in solo poco più di sei minuti durante i nostri test. Non male considerando che questa è una soluzione per PC. La scheda TeVii ha anche superato elegantemente uno dei nostri test più duri, con i transponder orizzontali su NILESAT a 7° ovest. La S470 si è anche comportata molto bene nei nostri test SCPC; è stata in grado di processare i segnali di banda stretta su TÜRKSAT 42° est senza alcuna difficoltà.

Uso Quotidiano

Grazie al collegamento dati estremamente veloce attraverso il bus PCI-E, la S470 può passare da un canale all’altro molto rapidamente; ciò rende il surf tra i canali molto divertente. Non ha importanza se state cambiando tra canali HD o canali SD oppure se state commutando da HD a SD o viceversa, il tempo di cambio è appena sopra un secondo. Questo è veramente molto buono, considerando che questa è una soluzione per PC e che mangiare la polvere a qualche decoder. Quando si trova nella modalità Windows, il software, se lo si desidera, miscela le informazioni dell’EPG del canale corrente nella parte inferiore del display. È anche possibile rendere queste informazioni dell’EPG, come anche i dati del canale, visibili nel display su schermo. Ciò è particolarmente pratico quando il monitor del PC viene utilizzato nella modalità a tutto schermo come TV ed il software TeVii viene controllato dal divano attraverso il telecomando. La perfetta progettazione del software TeVii viene confermata solo più oltre nella lista dei canali. Può essere ordinata e modificata in molti modi, così che, per esempio, i canali possono venire raggruppati per pacchetto, transpon-

der o satellite oppure le liste di Favoriti possono essere riempite con i canali che desiderate guardare più spesso. I canali indesiderati possono venire marcati e cancellati solamente con un singolo clic. I canali per adulti possono essere bloccati con un codice PIN, così che i bambini non possano accidentalmente inciampare su questi canali. È piuttosto pratico che le modifiche dell’intera lista dei canali abbia luogo direttamente nella finestra del software MyTeVii, rendendo in questo modo immediatamente visibile qualsiasi modifica. Oltre alla riproduzione live della TV, la S470 è naturalmente fornita anche delle funzioni di registrazione e visione differita. Da un lato, le registrazioni possono essere attivate manualmente. Possono anche essere attivate ad un orario specifico attraverso l’EPG, oppure programmate manualmente. Grazie alla funzione di visione differita, non vi perderete nessuna azione nel film che state guardando se dovesse squillare il telefono. Semplicemente, il film viene fermato e quando ne avrete abbastanza di parlare con la vostra zia preferita, potrete riprendere la visione di quel film da dove lo avevate lasciato. Il software TeVii può salvare le registrazioni come transport stream o in un formato compatibile MPEG, così che

possa essere riprodotto con qualsiasi riproduttore video. L’EPG è stata progettata tenendo presenti la chiarezza e la semplicità. Mostra tutte le informazioni fornite da un emittente in un formato semplice da leggere ed ordinato logicamente. In modo ideale, vi permette di visualizzare le informazioni riguardanti la programmazione fino a sette giorni in anticipo, con i dati di ogni singolo programma, come ad esempio il contenuto, l’emittente, ecc. Per la maggior parte, il software di TeVii appare perfetto, ma TeVii ha tenuto a mente che il buono può sempre essere migliorato. Per questa ragione i tecnici hanno incluso un’interfaccia plug-in che, con l’aiuto del software, vi permetterà di aggiungere una varietà di funzionalità extra.

Quale è il carico di lavoro che questa scheda richiede al processore?

Questa è una domanda difficile: se avete intenzione di effettuare altri lavori col vostro PC mentre il software TeVii sta riproducendo un video, quanto rallenta questa ricezione TV l’esecuzione di altri programmi? Nella modalità SD, un PC con un hardware per metà discreto non avrà nessun problema. Ma con l’HDTV l’aspetto cambia. Se coinvolge l’HDTV nel formato 720, il nostro vecchio Intel Pentium IV non aveva nessun problema ed era in grado di riprodurre un’immagine priva di interferenze con un carico del processore circa del 75%. Ma nella modalità 1080i, le interruzioni erano la norma ed il carico della CPU raggiungeva quasi il 100%. Allo stesso tempo, effettuare altre operazioni col PC non era veramente possibile mentre era in corso la riproduzione della TV.

TeViiData per Internet via Satellite

Abbaiamo quindi deciso di testare la scheda in un PC più moderno (Intel Core2Duo). Il risultato era come ci si aspettava: la scheda era in grado di

rendere il suo completo potenziale e riproduceva l’HDTV nel formato 1080i senza assolutamente alcun problema. Tenendo questo a mente, abbiamo voluto chiarire che i requisiti hardware del produttore per la ricezione dell’HD sono veramente i requisiti minimi. Se siete più esperti nella gestione delle vostre impostazioni software e se la vostra scheda video supporta l’accelerazione H264, allora TeVii ha alcuni trucchi a portata di mano, per come ridurre significativamente il carico del processore. Questo è ciò che occorre fare: Andare nel menu principale: Impostazioni, Directshow Filters, Cyberlink, Video e nelle proprietà marcare “Use Hardware Accelerator” o “DXVA” (a seconda del vostro sistema). Applicare le modifiche ed andare sul menu delle impostazioni principali di MyTeVii, andare su “Autograph” e procedere in questo modo: Se utilizzate Vista o Windows 7 scegliere “Enhanced Video Renderer”. Se utilizzate XP scegliere “Mixing Renderer 7”. È tutto, chiudere le finestre di impostazione e far ripartire MyTeVii. Notare che l’”Enhanced Video Renderer” non è compatibile con la modalità IVR e così funzionerà solo nella modalità semplice, ciò significa nessun OSD.

Software Alternativi

La sola funzione mancante nella scheda TeVii S470 PCIE è uno slot CI. Per voi, utilizzatori finali, ciò significa che non è possibile la ricezione della PayTV. Ad ogni modo, esistono due soluzioni per questo! Potete attendere fino al 3° trimestre del 2009 quando TeVii introdurrà la S475, che è una scheda PCIE DVB-S2 di basso profilo con un circuito CI derivato. Prevederà un sintonizzatore CAN passante. L’altra possibilità è software. Esistono pochi visualizzatori TV disponibili che funzionano bene con la TeVii S470, il più popolare e più ampiamente utilizzato di questi è naturalmente ProgDVB.

www.TELE-satellite.com — 08-09/2009 — TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic

Ovviamente, ProgDVB non può magicamente tirare fuori dal cilindro uno slot CI, ma è possibile accedere ad un altro ricevitore attraverso la condivisione della card utilizzando una smartcard valida.

richiesta viene inviata via modem attraverso internet al provider satellitare che quindi ritorna le informazioni attraverso una connessione ad alta velocità e le indirizza verso un satellite.

Dovrebbe funzionare in questo modo: possedete una card valida di abbonamento ad una Pay-TV inserita in un ricevitore nel vostro soggiorno. Impostate il vostro PC in modo che abbia accesso a questo ricevitore attraverso una connessione di rete. Con i plugin adatti, vi permetterà di accedere alla smartcard nel vostro ricevitore con la TeVii S470 e quindi condividere quella smartcard tra il ricevitore del vostro soggiorno e la scheda TeVii.

Il cliente all’altro capo invia solamente la richiesta di informazioni via modem al suo provider; le informazioni che gli occorrono gli vengono restituite ad alta velocità via satellite.

ProgDVB non è l’unico in circolazione. Esiste un numero di altri programmi che assieme alla S470 vi permetterà la ricezione della TV. Fate riferimento alla Tavola 1 per i collegamenti necessari. Nel frattempo, il nuovo software MyTeVii 4.xx, che non era ancora disponibile al momento di questo test, supporterà tutti i tipi di plugin, incluse le softcam, la condivisione delle schede e così via. Né vogliamo dimenticarci degli amanti della radio. La TeVii S470 non è solamente per la ricezione della TV; può naturalmente essere utilizzata per una ricezione delle radio satellitari di altissima qualità. E proprio come per i canali TV, anche i canali radio possono venire registrati e memorizzati in formato digitale.

TeViiData

TeVii non si specializza solamente in prodotti per la ricezione di TV e radio satellitari; c’è anche un’applicazione completamente differente. La frase magica a questo punto è “Internet via Satellite”. La tecnologia che ci sta dietro è abbastanza semplice: l’utente imposta una connessione via modem o ISDN. La velocità di questa connessione può essere un semplice 56kbps, ma questo gioca solo un ruolo molto piccolo. Se l’utente naviga in internet o inizia un download, la

L’unico punto negativo è che qualsiasi persona che può ricevere lo stesso satellite può anche ricevere le informazioni che avete richiesto. Sì, le informazioni sono codificate e significative solamente per voi, ma è disponibile del software che supererà questa codifica così che le informazioni potranno anche essere viste da altri. Nei nostri test, la ricezione di dati, utilizzando il software TeVii, ha funzionato senza problemi. Non ci aspettavamo niente di diverso.

Cos’è meglio? Scheda PCI-E o box USB?

A differenza della scheda PCI-E S470, il TeVii S650 viene collegato esternamente ad un PC attraverso una porta USB 2.0 ed alimentato da un alimentatore esterno . Eravamo interessati nello scoprire quale di queste due versioni fosse la migliore per l’utente finale. A questo scopo abbiamo controllato il carico del processore sul nostro PC Intel Pentium IV nella modalità SDTV come anche in quella HDTV (720p e 1080i). Abbiamo scoperto che entrambe la versione USB e PCI-E pongono circa lo stesso carico sul PC. Come potete vedere nelle immagini relative al carico del processore, entrambi i valori si trovano nella stessa gamma. Le variazioni che si possono osservare sono dovute a piccoli cambiamenti nel video (la stessa scena mostrata per un lungo periodo di tempo) comportando un carico inferiore del processore. Per l’utente finale la scelta

Processor Load USB Box HDTV 1080i

definitiva dipende dal gusto personale. Il box USB è chiaramente più flessibile e può essere utilizzato anche in campeggio assieme ad un PC portatile.

La versione PCI-E ha il vantaggio che non richiede un alimentatore esterno e non ha un contenitore esterno che occupa spazio prezioso sulla vostra scrivania.

Opinione dell’Esperto

La scheda PCI-E TeVii S470 è una soluzione eccellente per la ricezione dell’SDTV e HDTV via satellite sul vostro PC. Il software MyTeVii incluso è molto semplice da utilizzare ed ha funzionato perfettamente durante i nostri test. Thomas Haring TELE-satellite Grazie all’interfaccia plugin può essere facilTest Center mente accresciuto ed allo stesso tempo la S470 Austria può essere utilizzata con software di ricezione alternativo. Con l’aiuto dei codec idonei, possono essere ricevuti anche i feed nel formato MPEG 4:2:2. questo dovrebbe rendere particolarmente felici i DXer. Un plus ulteriore è il lavoro costante di TeVii nel miglioramento dei loro prodotti, in special modo il software MyTeVii. Gli aggiornamenti possono essere scaricati direttamente dal sito del produttore in modo gratuito.

Il carico del processore può essere ridotto solamente da utenti di PC con esperienza.

Conﬁgurazione di base

Il misuratore è molto leggero, pesa infatti solo 2,1 kg (batteria interna compresa). Viene fornito in una borsa protettiva con comode aperture per collegare i cavi. La borsa ha due cinghie in modo che l’installatore possa utilizzarla anche operando in posizioni molto difficili. Il display dell’analizzatore è ampio (7 pollici), luminoso e facile da leggere. Come è lecito attendersi, il suo formato è 16:9. Proprio sotto l’LCD si trovano 8 pulsanti la cui funzione viene indicata sullo schermo. Essa cambia a seconda della modalità operativa corrente. Grazie a questo stratagemma, SPAUN ha risparmiato numerosi pulsanti dedicati. Sempre a proposito di tasti, abbiamo l’interruttore ON/ OFF sulla fila superiore e 9 tasti funzione al di sotto. Essi sono, sulla prima riga: Autoconfigurazione, Parametri, Spettro, TV, Misure. La riga inferiore comprende invece: LNB-DiSEqC, Configurazione, Salva-Carica e Mappa Misurazione. Il tastierino numerico è situato nell’angolo in basso a sinistra, mentre sulla destra si trova un comando di controllo molto particolare. Esso non è semplicemente il consueto insieme di tasti freccia

con l’OK al centro, ma quando toccate il “volante” con un dito e lo spostate in senso orario o antiorario, il misuratore si comporta come se ruotaste una normale manopola! Sul pannello superiore si trovano tutte le prese e i connettori: ingresso di segnale (connettore BNC – occorre usare uno degli adattatori in dotazione), alimentazione, porta USB, mini USB, porta Ethernet e prese RCA con ingressi e uscite video e audio. Le diciture sul pannello suggeriscono che in futuro ci possiamo attendere due ulteriori connettori: interfaccia seriale asincrona (ASI) con uscita del transport stream e PCMCIA per una CAM. Il misuratore viene fornito con un caricabatterie esterno, adattatori vari (F-BNC e IEC-BNC), un cavo USB ed una chiavetta USB contenente il software per PC. Tutto è realizzato con attenzione ai dettagli.

Quick start Lo SPAROS 609 era talmente nuovo che, quando ci è stato consegnato, il manuale in Inglese non era ancora pronto. Avremmo dovuto aspettarlo? Assolutamente no! Dovevamo iniziare immediatamente. Con nostro grande piacere l’interfaccia utente si è rivelata così intuitiva che in un paio di minuti ci sentivamo già a nostro agio con le funzioni di base. E non solo con quelle: oltre alle classiche visione dello spettro, misurazione di transponder o visione di canali TV, siamo anche riusciti ad eseguire una ricerca alla cieca su un satellite, misurarne automaticamente

tutti i transponder e salvare i risultati su una chiavetta USB inserita in una delle porte. Tutto questo solo utilizzando una brochure informativa in Inglese di poche pagine. Ecco quello che si può definire una “prova esplorativa”.

Funzioni di base Con un analizzatore complesso come lo SPAROS 609 occorrerebbe molto tempo prima di scoprire tutte le possibilità e le modalità. Abbiamo quindi richiesto un manuale in Inglese e, dopo pochi giorni, ne abbiamo rice-

vuto una bozza. Solo allora ci siamo resi conto di quanto sia potente questo misuratore!

più che mostrare il segnale IF in uscita da un LNB (950-2150 MHz).

Lo SPAROS 609 può praticamente misurare qualsiasi segnale TV in tutte le modalità analogiche e digitali: satellite, cavo e terrestre. E’ compatibile con i seguenti standard satellitari: PAL, SECAM, NTSC, DVB-S, DVB-S2 e DSS (utilizzato negli USA). Il suo analizzatore di spettro copre continuamente la banda da 45 Mhz a 2150 Mhz, quindi è ovvio che questo misuratore sia in grado di fare molto di

Lo SPAROS misura i seguenti parametri del segnale DVBS: potenza del canale, C/N, tensione LNB, corrente LNB, tasso di errori del canale (CBER), tasso di errori Viterbi (VBER), numero di pacchetti non corretti (UNC) e e tasso di errori di modulazione (MER). Visualizza inoltre: frequenza del transponder, banda/polarizzazione, standard, symbol rate, modulazione e FEC. Non manca niente! Il DVB-S2 ha

dei parametri di errore leggermente diversi: LDPC, BCH e PER prendono il posto dei più familiari CBER, VBER e UNC. Non descriveremo tutti i parametri DVB-C e DVB-T, ma, credeteci, anche questi segnali sono misurati estensivamente come quelli satellitari.

Puntamento satellite Forse, una delle caratteristiche più interessanti di questo strumento è la sua utilità nel puntare l’antenna

www.TELE-satellite.com — 08-09/2009 — TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic

verso un satellite. Raccomandiamo di utilizzarlo nel modo seguente. Passate in modalità analizzatore di spettro e ruotate ed inclinate la para-

bola fino a quando vedete dei picchi nello spettro. Tentate di massimizzarli. Poi, premete il pulsante Autoconfigurazione (bacchetta magica) e il misu-

ratore cercherà nome e posizione del satellite nella tabella NIT del transponder che si trova sotto il cursore. A volte funziona, a volte no. Questo perché non tutti i transponder contengono i dati NIT. Altri misuratori offrono un metodo diverso. Essi riconoscono un satellite in base alla possibilità di agganciare un determinato transponder, specifico per ciascun satellite, del quale mantengono in memoria i parametri di sintonizzazione. Tali parametri devono essere ovviamente univoci in modo tale che solo quando l’antenna è rivolta verso il giusto satellite sia possibile agganciare il segnale. Abbiamo qualcosa di simile anche nello SPAROS 609? Anche di più! SPAROS controlla non uno, ma quattro transponder per satellite dei quali si può vedere contemporaneamente lo stato (livello di segnale con barre e percentuali di qualità). Dieci dei satelliti europei più popolari sono pre-programmati da SPAUN e altri dieci possono essere aggiunti liberamente. Per fare ciò dobbiamo solamente installare ed utilizzare il software PC fornito. Allo stesso modo possiamo modificare i satelliti esistenti qualora siano subentrate

modifiche ai parametri dei transponder. Dopo aver attivato la modalità “Controllo Sat”, viene mostrato l’ultimo satellite utilizzato con i suoi quattro transponder. Se non vi è aggancio, premete i tasti sinistra/destra per cambiare satellite. In pochi secondi scoprirete il satellite che l’antenna sta puntando. Da qui in poi è un gioco da ragazzi in quanto ora sapete se l’antenna è rivolta troppo a Ovest o a Est. Potete anche utilizzare la stessa schermata per la regolazione di precisione. Ruotatela o inclinatela leggermente osservando una barra di qualità. Personalmente, preferisco passare in modalità misurazione e controllare il valore MER. E’ sensibile e stabile allo stesso tempo. Utilizzando il MER risulta davvero facile trovare azimuth, elevazione e skew ottimali.

Puntamento LNB Monoblocco Gli LNB monoblocco non sono così facili da puntare. Di solito si allinea dapprima l’antenna per ottenere la miglior ricezione dall’LNB centrale, poi si cambia il DiSEqC e si

Allora si ruota l’antenna per migliorarlo, poi si torna al primo LNB per vedere se non si è troppo sacrificato il suo rendimento. Se state facendo tutto questo sul tetto, non siete probabilmente la persona più felice del mondo. Non esiste un modo più semplice? Sì! Ecco un’altra sorpresa che SPAUN ci ha preparato. Potete visualizzare le barre di livello/qualità per i quattro transponder del satellite A e, accanto ad essi, quat-

tro transponder del satellite B. Ed ora iniziate a ruotare l’antenna senza preoccuparvi di cambiare il DiSEqC. SPAROS fa tutto automaticamente aggiornando le letture così velocemente da farvi quasi sorgere il dubbio che non stia davvero misurando simultaneamente 8 transponder da 2 diversi satelliti! Non potrebbe essere più semplice e comodo.

Mappe di misurazione Un’altra

funzione

unica

dello SPAROS 609 è la sua capacità di scansionare alla cieca qualsiasi satellite creando un elenco dei suoi transponder. Dopo una ricerca di questo tipo possiamo misurare automaticamente il segnale di ciascun transponder producendo una mappa con tutti i risultati. Ma non è tutto: l’apparecchio misura i transponder in modo ciclico, dal primo all’ultimo e di nuovo daccapo. Possiamo poi salvare i risultati o nella memoria interna del misuratore o su una chiavetta esterna.

■ Vista pannello superiore

54 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

Se lasciate in funzione l’apparecchio per ore, otterrete un intero database di misurazioni: tutti i transponder in momenti diversi. Potete poi aprire il file con Excel e, ad esempio, creare diversi grafici che mostrano il funzionamento dell’impianto nel corso della giornata. Una mappa di questo tipo può contenere fino a 100 transponder. Anziché cercarli sul satellite, potreste preferire preparare in anticipo l’elenco dei transponder o scaricarlo da Internet. Tutto è spiegato molto chiaramente nel manuale.

Potete anche appoggiarlo a terra e riuscirete ugualmente a vedere i risultati che, tra l’altro, vengono aggiornati molto rapidamente. Non abbiamo mai avuto l’impressione di essere in attesa di una risposta. Sembra incredibile per utenti PC? E’ vero. Ci è anche piaciuta l’idea di trasferire file via chiavetta. Nessun cavo, nessun software da installare ed i risultati sono immediatamente sul PC. Potete usare la chiavetta anche per aggiornare il firmware. L’unica cosa che potremmo desiderare è una forma di protezione dal sole. La borsa è già molto ergonomica, ma se avesse anche questa protezione sarebbe davvero perfetta.

Prestazioni

Misurazione transponder DVB-S2 – seconda schermata

Fin qui abbiamo parlato dell’usabilità, ma per quanto riguarda la precisione dello strumento? Abbiamo con-

56 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

frontato lo SPAROS 609 con un altro analizzatore della stessa categoria. Abbiamo dapprima esaminato Eurobird 1 ed Astra 2A/2B/2D a 28,2° Est (11,224 – 12691 MHz) e poi HOTBIRD a 13° Est (10,797 – 11,624 MHz). Nella maggior parte dei casi lo SPAROS ha rilevato un miglior prestazione sul rumore. Sembra che abbia un rumore interno all’ingresso inferiore al suo concorrente. Ma ciò che è ancora più interessante sono i 5 transponder sui quali il concorrente non era in grado di misurare il MER in quanto il valore risultava inferiore ai 3 dB. Lo SPAROS non ha avuto alcun problema! Il suo front end deve essere davvero eccezionale! Abbiamo verificato l’analizzatore anche con segnali via cavo (analogici e 256QAM) e terrestri (PAL e DVB-T) e tutto ha funzionato alla perfezione. L’unica cosa mancante è l’immagine dei canali TV che utilizzano la compressione MPEG-4. Lo SPAROS 609 rappresenta lo stato dell’arte: mostra ciò che oggi può essere realizzato utilizzando i componenti più sofisti-

cati insieme ad un software intelligente. Lo SPAROS 609 è chiara-

mente un analizzatore di segnale di riferimento che fornisce letture superbamente precise.

Multimedia Box

IPDVD Box

Pocket Sized Multimedia Powerhouse Since the larger receiver manufacturers introduced the ﬁrst PVR set top boxes to the market a few years ago, their top of the line models come with features such as MP3 playback, picture viewers or video players. But every one of these receivers has one thing in common: their development focused mainly on TV and radio reception as well as the use of the PVR functions. Yes, these boxes could handle MP3 playback, etc., but the integration of these extra multimedia features was not necessarily well thought out. For one thing, with many of these receivers, the content had to ﬁrst be uploaded to the internal hard drive, a process that could take a long time depending on the type of connection (network or USB) and what chipset the receiver has.

60 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

This was reason enough for the Chinese firm IPDVD to develop a multimedia box to bridge this gap in the market. The requirements were quickly finalized: a digital video and audio output should provide an extremely high quality version of the media content, the data itself should be accessed directly from a network or an external storage device, TV content should be accessible via the Internet and all of this should fit into the smallest possible housing. With these requirements finalized, the IPDVD engineers went to work. When we were told a few weeks ago about the IPDVD box and asked if we would like to test it out, we naturally agreed and the manufacturer sent us a sample unit for testing.

the IPDVD box, you simply connect it to your local network and then turn the PC on.

The IPDVD box has the perfect solution: it integrates itself into your local network thereby making all of that data available for your TV where before it could only be seen on your PC.

The PC should recognize the IPDVD box and asks the user to make the data available. This availability takes place through Windows Media Player, a part of the operating system, and is taken care of in just a few mouse clicks. You merely select what data should be made available and the rest is handled for you by Windows and the IPDVD box.

And the best part is that the box can do all of this without needing any special conﬁguration or added software since a standard PC with a fairly up to date operating system (Windows XP or higher) is good enough. In order to playback music, video and picture data through

Especially interesting is that Windows Media Player isn’t the only media source supported; Bonjour (for MAC users) is also supported as are the UPnP, SSDP, DLNA, NSS , SMB, NFS,

Every user should be able to ﬁnd their matching connection method even when they don’t want to or can’t use Windows Media Player. As soon as the date is made available, a new entry will appear in the IPDVD Main menu with the name of your PC. Selecting this entry will provide access to all of the music, video and picture data that you previously made available. You can play back MP3 music, videos, photos, even an entire slideshow. The list of supported video and audio formats is so long

64 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

We were especially impressed with the video player that effortlessly played back every known format regardless of whether it was a video downloaded from the Internet, a digital satellite receiver recording or a video camera recording. SD as well as HD content is also supported! Only when you use a larger TV can you really enjoy all of the HD content available via the Internet or recorded via a satellite receiver. The two USB jacks on the front side can be used with external storage devices that can also be accessed by the box. This is especially practical if the pictures or videos you want to see are still stored in a camera. In this case, you simply connect the camera via a USB cable to the box making those pictures you just shot also available on your TV.

IPTV via Internet The second operating area of the IPDVD box is the processing and display of video and audio content from the Internet. For this purpose the box uses the Media Service Portal from Syabas Technology.

The Homemade IPTV Portal of the Box

The Media Service Portal (MSP) is really nothing more than a specially prepared Internet page for set top boxes from which every possible media format can be accessed. With the help of plug-ins, all of your favorite video/audio content can be displayed. IPTV Portal Movie Selection

A variety of these plug-ins are ready to be used; those more experienced users can create their own plug-ins for media content that is not yet supported. The box is shipped with several dozen plug-ins already included. Only those more important and popular ones are mentioned here:

Number one would have to be the plug-in for the YouTube video portal. It lets you use this service the way you’d be familiar with on a PC. You can search for videos in the YouTube database; the most viewed videos, the highest rated videos and your particular favorites are at your ﬁngertips.

pictures from other users and also let you upload your own photos for your friends and relatives to see. Other plug-ins, for example, give you weather information for the entire globe or even local trafﬁc information. And Podcast lovers were not left out either; content can be found in the plug-ins for every possible subject. Even individual video channels such as Cranky Geeks or Revision 3 with up-to-date Internet information can be found. An interesting extra, especially for those users outside of the USA, is the ability to watch TV channels such as CNN, NBC and CBS with programs like Larry King, Anderson Cooper, Today Show, Meet the Press, Face the Nation, NBC Nightly News and CBS News. You can even tune into a large variety of radio programs such as news services from BBC, ABC or MSNBC any time you want. Of course, the box can also work with every type of RSS feed letting the user stay up to date with current events. If you plan on using any other services, you can simply expand your Media Service Portal with additional plugins. At the same time, a Community page can be called up through the IPDVD box that

Expert Opinion

The IPDVD Box is a do-it-all multimedia powerhouse and is the perfect interface between PC, TV, Multimedia and Internet. It is very easy to use and offers an enormous assortment of media content. It is manufactured with quality in mind and is really fun to use.

I lettori di TELE-satellite conoscono ormai da anni i diffusissimi ed affidabili analizzatori di segnale della PROMAX, facilmente riconoscibili dal caratteristico colore giallo. Ma PROMAX ha molto di più da offrire: la loro gamma di prodotti spazia da quelli che già conoscete ad apparecchi per l’elaborazione del segnale fino a componenti di distribuzione per gli utenti finali. PROMAX si occupa di talmente tante cose che volevamo conoscerli più da vicino, così ci siamo recati in una delle città più turistiche del mondo: Barcellona. Fino al 1981 PROMAX aveva la propria sede nel centro della città, poi si sono trasferiti a L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, un sobborgo facilmente raggiungibile con la linea L1 della metropolitana.

■ Vista parziale dell’ediﬁcio che ospita lo stabilimento

e l’amministrazione di PROMAX a L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, sobborgo meridionale di Barcellona vicino all’aeroporto El Prat. A disposizione di PROMAX vi sono 6600 mq. Questi ediﬁci sono occupati da 120 persone, delle quali 50 in produzione, 30 nelle vendite, 30 in R&S e 10 in amministrazione.

formazione: “Come funzionava la TV”.

José Clotet ha fondato la società nel 1963, solo pochi anni dopo la messa in onda della prima stazione TV di Barcellona. Improvvisamente apparvero non solo installatori di antenne, ma anche produttori di apparecchi TV che avevano bisogno di analizzatori di segnale e, soprattutto, di generatori di pattern di prova. Nel primo anno PROMAX assunse quattro ingegneri, ciascuno dei quali sviluppò un proprio apparecchio. La produzione in serie ebbe inizio l’anno successivo e nel 1964 i dipendenti erano già dieci. Nel 1968 fece la sua apparizione una seconda stazione TV in banda UHF. Ancora una volta PROMAX era già là ed iniziò a fornire i primi analizzatori di segnale UHF. Nel 1986 vi fu un’altra anteprima per PROMAX: il primo analizzatore di segnali

satellitari e nel 1993 il promo analizzatore universale controllato a microprocessore che copriva tutte le banda da VHF/UHF (FM compresa) fino a quelle satellitari. Oggi PROMAX è ancora di proprietà di José Clotet. Nel 2005 suo figlio José-Maria Clotet ha preso il controllo delle operazioni commerciali e nel 2007 la società è stata suddivisa in quattro divisioni: Prove e Misure, Trasmissioni, Distribuzione TV e Formazione Elettronica.

Naturalmente, molto più importanti dal punto di vista economico sono gli analizzatori di segnale. “Circa il 30% delle nostre vendite può essere attribuito agli analizzatori di segnale”, spiega José-Maria Clotet. Nel 2009 il livello della divisione Distribuzione TV è salito notevolmente grazie all’acquisizione di un fabbricante locale di prodotti di distribuzione. “Questa divisione rappresenta ora il 30% del nostro fatturato”, commenta José-Maria Clotet. Il restante 30% ricade nella divisione Trasmissioni.

L’assortimento è davvero ampio ed abbiamo chiesto a José-Maria Clotet maggiori chiarimenti sull’ultima divisione: “Fin dall’inizio PROMAX ha insegnato agli installatori e agli ingegneri come utilizzare i propri prodotti”. Questo servizio rappresenta solo il 10% delle vendite, ma è stato un gesto di buona volontà che non deve essere sottostimato.

A prima vista sembra che non vi sia una grande uniformità, ma non appena José-Maria Clotet ci spiega il collegamento, l’immagine diventa più chiara e si può cogliere la strategia. “Siamo fortemente concentrati sul DVB-T”, afferma José-Maria Clotet, “I nostri punti di forza sono sempre stati gli analizzatori di segnale dal lato della ricezione e i proces-

■ José-Maria Clotet, Amministratore Delegato di PROMAX, spiega l’idea di fondo alla base della strategia aziendale: le quattro possibili sorgenti di ricezione – satellite, antenna, sorgenti video (es. DVD) e videocamere – sono ampliﬁcate, modulate e distribuite da PROMAX utilizzando la tecnologia DVB-T via cavo o via etere.

82 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

■ La teoria viene dimostrata mediante un collegamento

reale: ogni slot rappresenta una possibile sorgente di segnale. Dall’altro lato si ottiene un segnale combinato DVB-T.

■ Roger Gallart è il Responsabile Marketing e ci mostra la sala corsi di PROMAX con alcuni dei loro ultimi prodotti. “Qui teniamo dei corsi ogni Venerdì”, spiega Roger Gallart, “ma anche le nostre ﬁliali effettuano corsi; in questo modo possiamo dire che, da qualche parte nel mondo, ogni giorno ha luogo un corso PROMAX!”.

■ Non c’è tempo per le fotograﬁe: il Reparto Vendite Internazionali

è in contatto con i clienti di tutto il mondo. Un terzo delle vendite di PROMAX è interno, un altro terzo va in Europa e il rimanente nel resto del mondo. Questo rapporto rimane pressapoco costante da molti anni. Naturalmente, PROMAX consegna prodotti adatti alla regione di destinazione: ad esempio, ATSC in Nord America o DMBTH in Cina.

■ Silenzio, per favore! Gli ingegneri sono molto concentrati sullo

sviluppo dei prodotti PROMAX. Questa stanza è estremamente silenziosa per consentire agli ingegneri di concentrarsi su ciò che stanno facendo.

84 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

■ Come funziona un analizzatore di

segnale di PROMAX? Qualcuno deve scrivere il manuale utente e uno degli addetti è Joaquin Arroyo del Media Team. Qui lo vediamo raccogliere schermate da pubblicare sul sito web di PROMAX.

■ In veste di specialista DVB-T, PROMAX fornisce un servizio speciale: la veriﬁca del segnale

trasmesso. La Direzione Generale Spagnola delle Telecomunicazioni utilizza i prodotti e il software di PROMAX non solo per veriﬁcare i segnali DVB-T che vengono trasmessi, ma anche per rilevare stazioni di trasmissione illegali. Distribuite nel paese si trovano delle stazioni automatiche di monitoraggio che possono essere accedute via rete dai tecnici. Una stazione di riferimento è stata anche installata alla PROMAX e la possiamo vedere in questa foto.

■ Con soli alcuni click del mouse, il

tecnico può controllare da remoto la ricezione DVB-T di una qualunque di queste stazioni, veriﬁcare l’intensità di segnale e misurare tutti i parametri necessari.

■ Il magazzino dei componenti PROMAX: questi enormi armadi che

arrivano ﬁno al sofﬁtto contengono milioni di parti prefabbricate che verranno installate su un circuito stampato dalla macchina di montaggio SMD. Juan Carlos Villar è responsabile del sistema di gestione del magazzino con il quale i vari contenitori possono essere spostati nella posizione richiesta premendo semplicemente un pulsante.

■ Uno sguardo all’area di produzione:

PROMAX gestisce due linee SMD che assemblano i componenti sui circuiti stampati in modo completamente automatico. Gli addetti sono necessari solo per il controllo qualità.

■ Controllo Ottico Qualità. Tutto avviene in una stanza pulita a 70 ppm, un livello analogo a quello richiesto da una sala operatoria ospedaliera.

■ Le schede ﬁnite vengono

montate nel telaio e l’analizzatore di segnale è completo. Raul Ramirez effettua l’ispezione ﬁnale e calibra il prodotto ﬁnito.

sori di segnale, con i quali controllare i segnali prodotti, dal lato della trasmissione”. Ciò che mancava era a questo punto la sezione intermedia, cioè il collegamento dalla ricezione (antenna) al ricevitore (TV). E qui entra in gioco il DVB-T: “Siamo convinti che il DVB-T sia la tecnologia ottimale di trasmissione per molte applicazioni”, afferma José-Maria Clotet, “si possono trasmettere segnali in analogico, tecnologia del passato, oppure in multiplex QAM. Questa è complessa e costosa in quanto l’utente finale necessita di un ricevitore via cavo. Un’altra opzione è l’IPTV, ma anch’essa è costosa e complicata”.

■ La qualità non è l’unica cosa ad

essere importante; anche la sicurezza è determinante. In questa stanza isolata elettromagneticamente vengono effettuate le prove EMC da José Maria Lanau.

Dato che il DVB-T (o standard digitali equivalenti come ATSC e DMB-TH) alla fine diventerà lo standard generale terrestre, per PROMAX la conclusione è ovvia: il DVB-T deve anche essere utilizzato nella tecnologia di distribuzione via cavo. TV con sintonizzatori DVBT integrati sono già standard in molte nazioni. Ciò che fino ad oggi è mancato sono stati prodotti di distribuzione del segnale basati su DVB-T. Ora possiamo capire perché PROMAX si sia espansa proprio in quel modo: la divisione Trasmissioni produce generatori e modulatori DVBT, mentre la divisione Distribuzione TV fornisce i necessari prodotti di distribuzione DVB-T. Non si tratta solo di un passaggio logico per PROMAX, ma ha un senso anche dal punto di vista tecnologico: “Il DVB-T è estremamente robusto; anche sul vecchio cavo coassiale e con forti attenuazioni, il DVB-T offre comunque una riserva sufficiente”, spiega JoséMaria Clotet riguardo i vantaggi che il DVB-T, concepito in origine per la trasmissione via etere, può offrire anche nell’utilizzo su impianti di distribuzione via cavo.

■ Qui avviene il confezionamento: partono da PROMAX

mediamente circa 100 spedizioni al giorno dirette in tutto il mondo.

■ Un reparto speciale chiamato Servizio Tecnico

PROMAX tratta i prodotti difettosi restituiti dagli installatori. Miguel Calvo (a sinistra) e José Antonio del Rio (a destra) sono due degli addetti.

Alla PROMAX la fusione di tutte queste tecnologie è chiaramente visibile: non ha più alcun senso mantenere una separazione tra distribuzione del segnale satellitare, terrestre e via cavo. Per ogni applicazione esiste una diversa soluzione ottimale che sta via via sempre più diventando un ibrido che attinge da aree diverse. PROMAX si è chiaramente data un passo per il proprio futuro e, come dice José-Maria Clotet, “il 15% del nostro fatturato è investito in ricerca e sviluppo”. Ecco da dove arrivano le innovazioni! www.TELE-satellite.com — 08-09/2009 — TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic

■ Dove nasconde le sue antenne PROMAX? Naturalmente sul tetto! Qui

possiamo vedere Oscar Collado (a destra), Responsabile della Logistica, mostrare ad Alexander Wiese (a sinistra), Direttore Responsabile di TELEsatellite, due delle otto parabole installate sul tetto dell’ediﬁcio.

Novità PROMAX Nuovi prodotti sviluppati da PROMAX nel 2009 che stanno per arrivare sul mercato

1. Il nuovo TV EXPLORER non solo riceve i segnali HD in DVB-S2 e MPEG4, ma è anche in grado di visualizzarli, compresi i canali in 720p e 1080i, sul suo monitor 16:9 integrato. Dato che molti di questi canali sono codiﬁcati, il TV EXPLORER HD dispone anche di un’interfaccia CAM per poterli decodiﬁcare. 2. PROMAX ha sviluppato il TV HUNTER per gli installatori che lavorano molto velocemente. E’ piccolo, comodo ed estremamente semplice da utilizzare. Il TV HUNTER è stato pensato per i segnali DVB-T; esiste poi un apparecchio simile sviluppato per i segnali satellitari: il SAT HUNTER.

3. Il PROMAX AGIL-T è un ampliﬁcatore di canale per segnali digitali ed analogici. E’ compatibile con qualsiasi forma di modulazione e la sua peculiarità sono i 10 ﬁltri UHF programmabili con ampiezza di banda da 1 a 6 canali. L’AGIL-T è disponibile anche con ingresso IF satellitare.

■ Roy Carman sulla sua comoda

Roy Carman va pazzo per la caccia ai feed. Con le sue due parabole motorizzate è costantemente alla ricerca di segnali trasmessi dai vari satelliti che riesce a vedere. Sta anche già lavorando per catturare segnali feed DVB-S2. 90 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

poltrona. Da qui il pigrone teledipendente, come egli si autodeﬁnisce, controlla sei ricevitori, due PC, tre monitor e molti extra, tra cui un analizzatore di spettro per scoprire i transponder attivi, con i suoi numerosi telecomandi.

Queste nuove tecnologie non sono una novità per Roy: “Sono affascinato da tutte queste nuove possibilità”, dice, ma allo stesso tempo è dispiaciuto di essere nato tanto tempo fa, “ora le cose si fanno davvero interessanti!”. Altre nuove tecnologie, come l’IPTV, stanno diventando popolari. Roy è ora in pensione e sta cominciando a sentire gli effetti dell’età. “Ho configurato la mia stazione in modo tale da poter controllare tutto dalla poltrona”, ci spiega, “alla sera mia moglie siede accanto a me e guarda la TV normale da una parabola di 60 cm, mentre io indosso le cuffie e commuto il mio monitor sul sistema motorizzato per controllare i vari feed”. Roy ha iniziato il suo hobby nel 1984. Era un militare di carriera dell’esercito britannico di stanza per molti anni in Germania dove lavorava, tra le altre cose, come responsabile di un’unità di produzione TV. Fu all’epoca che incontrò per la prima volta le trasmissioni via satellite. Tornato in Inghilterra dopo essere stato onorabilmente congedato dall’esercito,

iniziò a lavorare per un rivenditore di materiale da costruzione. Ma il virus del satellite l’aveva già infettato. Acquistò la sua prima antenna di 80 cm in un negozio che oggi non esiste nemmeno più. Fu con questo primo impianto che iniziò a cercare le trasmissioni di feed. “Ho sempre trovato affascinante ricevere qualcosa che nessun altro poteva vedere”, dice Roy per spiegare le sue motivazioni.

rono verso questo schermo: si vedeva il secondo aeroplano schiantarsi contro le Torri Gemelle”. Roy fu testimone di questo evento grazie ad un feed che trasmetteva un notiziario TV. “Questa esperienza rimase impressa nella mia mente”, commenta Roy.

Nel 1988 mise nuovamente mano al portafoglio ed acquistò un’antenna di 100 cm insieme ad un attuatore e ad un ricevitore Echostar 8700. “All’epoca mi costò circa 1000 sterline”, ricorda Roy ripensando a quei tempi particolarmente costosi. Allora i suoi satelliti principali erano INTELSAT a 27,5° Ovest e PAS a 43° Ovest.

Oggi Roy gestisce sei ricevitori satellitari con due antenne motorizzate, una dal diametro di 100 cm e l’altra di 120 cm. “Non posso installare parabole più grandi, le regole del quartiere non me lo consentono”. Gli piacerebbe molto poter montare un’antenna in banda C. “Qui siamo su una collina e la casa è rivolta esattamente verso Sud”, commenta Roy guardando la casa dove si è trasferito 10 anni fa. “E’ una posizione da sogno per un Dxer!”.

Una delle sue esperienze più affascinanti con un feed avvenne nel 2001: “Stavo guardando un feed su TELECOM 2D a 8° Ovest. Era la trasmissione da un congresso e si poteva vedere il moderatore in piedi di fronte ad un grande schermo video. All’improvviso le teste di tutte le persone nella stanza si gira-

Roy utilizza un ricevitore Manhattan XTF100 per la sua caccia ai feed: “E’ molto sensibile e mi mostra anche i valori del FEC”. Perché è così importante il FEC dato che i moderni ricevitori lo possono rilevare automaticamente? “Forse”, dice Roy, “ma nel caso di ricezione molto distante, ad esempio al limite del foot-

■ Roy Carman abita in questa villetta combinata a Dorking, a Sud di Londra,

distante 45 minuti di treno dalla stazione Victoria. Ha installato il suo centro di controllo proprio dietro la ﬁnestra del soggiorno da dove muove la sua antenna da 100 cm.

print del satellite, tutto aiuta e potendo immettere manualmente il FEC potrebbe essere possibile catturare un segnale che, in modalità automatica, un ricevitore potrebbe invece non riuscire a riconoscere”. C’è sempre qualcosa da imparare da Roy! E come fa a ricevere i feed DVB-S2? “Per questo utilizzo il TECHNOMATE 6900 HD”, dice Roy, “ma devo usare uno dei miei trucchi per sapere se un feed è trasmesso in DVB-S o DVB-S2”. Il TECHNOMATE 6900 HD non indica se sta ricevendo in modalità DVB-S o DVB-S2. Quindi come fa Roy? “Divido il segnale dal satellite per riceverlo in parallelo su un ricevitore DVB-S”. Se vede il segnale solo sul TECHNOMATE, allora deve essere DVB-S2. Se invece riesce a vederlo con entrambi i ricevitori, allora deve trattarsi di DVB-S. Bisogna sempre trovare una soluzione! “A mio parere bisogna prendere la propria esperienza e trasmetterla liberamente agli altri”, afferma Roy. Da anni è il moderatore di uno dei migliori gruppi Ha installato una seconda antenna di 120 cm nel giardino sul retro. Un’antenna più piccola di 60 cm per Sky TV si trova sul tetto accanto al camino.

■ Per questa foto, Roy ha aperto il suo armadietto delle meraviglie: qui si trovano i sei

ricevitori e un lettore DVD. “Per poter velocemente caricare un aggiornamento software ho collegato un cavo null modem a ciascun ricevitore e l’ho portato sul davanti”, afferma Roy indicando gli spinotti presenti sotto ogni ricevitore.

■

■ Roy ha impiegato un sacco di tempo a collegare tutti i suoi ricevitori in modo chiaro e

ordinato. Qui si può dare una sbirciata dietro la sua TV 16:9 a schermo piatto con tutte le diverse connessioni.

Satellite Reception Beijing, China

Il factotum satellitare di Pechino ■ Antenne addizionali sono montate su una ringhiera laterale: un’antenna di 75cm è puntata verso 134°E con un’antenna motorizzata di 60cm con un motore MOTECK.

TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

Uno dei più attivi tuttofare è proprio ShiToy, che ha adottato il soprannome inglese Stone (Pietra) – è stata una scelta semplice: la parola cinese ShiToy significa pietra (“stone” in inglese). Grazie alla sua preparazione come tecnico IT, egli sa come muoversi e si concentra intensivamente sull’aspetto tecnico del suo hobby di ricezione satellitare. Lo abbiamo incontrato nel suo appartamento, in una zona di recente costruzione nel nord di Pechino, appena fuori la 5a Ring Road – effettivamente, non esiste in realtà alcun centro storico a Pechino, tutte le costruzioni sono state effettuate nei pochi ultimi decenni.

■ Stone, lettore regolare della

versione cinese di TELE-satellite, sul tetto dell’ediﬁcio in cui si trova il suo appartamento. L’antenna di 1,8 metri è allineata a 138°E, mentre l’antenna di 1,5 metri è puntata a 115,5°E con un’altra che guarda a 107,5°E.

Stone ci spiega come tutto ha avuto inizio: “Ho acquistato la mia prima antenna di 60cm nel 2001; volevo ricevere Phoenix e Star TV da Hong Kong.” Da allora il suo interesse nei satelliti è cresciuto a passo rapido. Negli anni successivi non solo ha acquistato un’antenna dopo l’altra, ma anche numerosi ricevitori differenti, fino a quando arrivò il giorno in cui si mise anche a cercare l’appartamento perfetto per un hobbysta satellitare. Stone, originario della provincia di Hunan nella Cina meridionale, arrivò a Pechino nel 1997 e si trovò un appartamento in un complesso nel quale vive tuttora oggi. “All’inizio avevo un appartamento al piano terreno”, spiega Stone, “ma recentemente sono riuscito a scambiare questo appartamento con uno al piano 11°.” Ma ciò significa ancora avere dei cavi che corrono per oltre 200m fino alle sue antenne posizionate sul tetto della costruzione a 18 piani. “L’attenuazione del segale è ancora ragionevolmente bassa”, dice mentre ci mostra il cavo coassiale, “utilizzo un cavo di alta qualità con una perdita di segnale molto piccola.” Ha installato tutte le sue antenne in cima sul tetto piatto. Ma ciò ha portato ad un problema molto interessante: come allineate le antenne quando siete così lontani dai ricevitori? Il talento faida-te di Stone è entrato in gioco qui: si è comprato un alloggiamento di plastica

dove ha installato il circuito stampato di un ricevitore assieme ad una batteria al litio ed un monitor a schermo piatto corrispondente. Il risultato è stato un misuratore di segnale satellitare casalingo con un monitor piatto 16:9 ed un indicatore di livello a LED a batteria. Chiedendo a Stone se avesse mai considerato di produrre a livello professionale qualcosa del genere, la sua risposta è stata: “Lo faccio per divertimento; non mi interessa guadagnarci sopra.” Per provare che egli prende veramente sul serio il suo hobby, ci ha mostrato altri circuiti stampati coi quali sta lavorando su esperimenti addizionali, ad esempio indirizzare il segnale video satellitare via GPRS o progettare la sua propria sezione audio: “Questo sostituirebbe la sezione audio esistente in un ricevitore ben conosciuto che semplicemente ha un’uscita audio troppo bassa”, spiega Stone. Stone è molto attivo sulla scena satellitare cinese. Egli riferisce su tutte le sue idee casalinghe sulla sua homepage: www.dvbs.org.cn. “Ogni anno i DXer

satellitari di tutta la Cina si incontrano qui a Pechino per scambiarsi le loro idee ed esperienze”, spiega Stone, “l’ultima volta c’erano oltre 300 persone.” Durante questi incontri si tengono delle conferenze. “Ho tenuto un discorso di 20 minuti a proposito dell’utilizzo del ABCOM IPBOX 250S”, commenta Stone con orgoglio. Egli spiega perché questo ricevitore AB-COM sia così tanto popolare in Cina: “È un apparecchio insolitamente robusto equipaggiato con un software particolarmente stabile.” Il software dell’AB-IPBOX è stato tradotto in cinese da quegli stessi tuttofare satellitari. Stone è uno di quei factotum che capisce la tecnologia satellitare e si diverte a realizzare le sua proprie idee. Forse un giorno trasformerà il suo hobby nella sua professione; eh! Non si sa mai.

■ Stone ha installato i ricevitori nel suo soggiorno. Egli scarica i ﬁlm

in HDTV da internet e li elabora con un apparecchio HTPC casalingo allo scopo di guardarli sulla sua TV a schermo piatto. “Sto pensando di prendere un proiettore TV”, commenta Stone mentre osserva il muro del suo soggiorno. Sarebbe un punto ideale per quello.

SatcoDX AutoScan Jakarta, Indonesia

Il vento era troppo forte! A proposito di sfortuna nera. Un recente temporale ha abbattuto l’antenna di 1,8 metri della stazione di monitoraggio di SatcoDX in Indonesia. I montanti non hanno potuto reggere le potenti rafﬁche di vento durante la tempesta. Naturalmente, la nuova costruzione da erigere terrà conto di questo rischio. Impariamo sempre dai nostri errori!

■ Prima: Il palo sostiene con orgoglio l’antenna a sei

segmenti del diametro di 1,8 metri per la ricezione di PALAPA C2 a 113°E e CHINASAT 6B a 155.5°E (ricevuti nell’offset dell’antenna) sul tetto della stazione di monitoraggio di SatcoDX in Indonesia. In effetti, non si trova esattamente nella capitale Jakarta, ma a Pontianak, che è ad ovest dell’arcipelago della Malesia. Se necessario, un motore permette di ruotare l’antenna verso est ﬁno a posizionarsi su INTELSAT 8 a 166°E e verso ovest ﬁno a YAMAL 202 a 49°E. Vicino al condizionatore potete vedere due altre piccole antenne anch’esse utilizzate dalla stazione per la scansione automatica.

EUROPE EUROPE ASTRA 5A SATELLITE SWITCHED OFF

Following a technical incident in January this year, SES Astra had to put Astra 5A out of service and end the spacecraft’s mission. A team of technical experts and engineers since then succeeded in removing the satellite from the geostationary orbit and move it into a higher, secure orbit outside the geostationary ring. SES Astra moved its Astra 2C satellite to 23.5 degrees East, the orbital position formerly occupied by Astra 5A, in order to resume the services for customers from that position.

EUTELSAT W2A SATELLITE OPERATIONAL

The Eutelsat W2A satellite, launched on April 3, became fully operational in mid-May. The Ku and C-band W2A satellite almost triples resources at Eutelsat’s 10 degrees East position, which is one of the most longstanding locations in Europe and Africa for professional video, data and Internet services. With W2A’s entry into service Eutelsat has also introduced a new mission comprising 10 C-band transponders. Centred over the African continent, the C-band footprint takes in large parts of the Middle East and central Asia to the East and stretches across to Latin America in the West. Following this redeployment Eutelsat’s W1 satellite has been repositioned to 4 degrees East where it operates under the name Eurobird 4A.

ORANGE SPORT REMAINS EXCLUSIVE TO FRANCE TELECOM

SES Astra launched a new TV offer in High Deﬁnition in Germany during June. The ﬁrst programmes which will be part of the HD+ offer are the commercial channels RTL and VOX. Relevant agreements have been signed with the Media Group RTL Germany. RTL has contracted additional long-term transponder capacity for the transmission of the new HD programmes from Astra’s orbital position 19.2 degrees East. The launch of HD+ is foreseen for late autumn.

Telecom Italia had reached 365.000 subscribers for its IPTV service Alice Home TV by the end of the ﬁrst quarter of this year, adding 36.000 customers in the three-month period. The operator is set to become the biggest IPTV player in Italy this year, ﬁnally overtaking rival Fastweb, according to a new report from Pyramid Research. The report indicates that FastWeb had a 46 per cent share of the Italian IPTV market at the end of 2008. With the number of Italian IPTV subscribers totaling 863.000 at the end of last year, that puts FastWeb’s customer base at almost 400.000. Telecom Italia, meanwhile, ended the year with 329,000 IPTV customers, giving it a market share of 38 percent. The third main Italian IPTV player is Wind, which ended 2008 with about 80.000 TV customers, giving it a 10 percent market share.

LATVIA LATTELCOM INTRODUCES FTTP CONNECTIONS IN RIGA

Belgacom has introduced a new package called Belgacom TV Comfort, which replaces the ‘Classic+’ package and includes the ‘Comfort View’ feature set (Pause TV, Rewind and Record).

Rental of the set-top box, offering HD reception plus PVR features, costs EUR 6 per month. Belgacom had 506.000 IPTV subscribers at the end of 2008.

A French appeals court has told France Telecom it can keep exclusivity on its Orange Sport IPTV channel. After IPTV rivals SFR and Iliad brought a case in February, the Paris Commercial Court had ruled that Orange had an unfair competitive advantage because the service is only available to Orange’s ADSL internet subscribers. But in June it overturned that decision, meaning it gets to retain a package of exclusive live French league football, However, France’s anti-trust authority is set to make its own ruling on the sport channel as well as Orange’s cinema channel.

Lattelecom has started offering ultra-fast Internet connections to a limited number of homes in the capital city of Riga, delivered via its new fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) network. The new services are available to around 100 homes in the district of Zolitude, offering speeds of up to 100 Mbps. The new ultra-fast connections also support Lattelecom’s IPTV service Lattelecom Interactive TV, including multi-room services and high-definition content. Lattelecom enjoyed a fourfold increase in the number of subscribers to its IPTV service during 2008, although the company did not divulge actual figures.

Digital Satellite TV listed in SatcoDX Satellite Chart is transmitted in four different modes: there are two transmission modes, DVB-S and DVB-S2, and two modulation modes, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. The DVB-S/MPEG-2 combination is the most widely used mode for Standard Definition TV whereas DVB-S2/MPEG-4 is used for High Definition TV. Satellite Receivers manufactured for DVB-S and MPEG-2 are NOT capable of receiving signals transmitted in DVB-S2 or modulated in MPEG-4. Most modern high-quality and high-priced HDTV satellite receivers can do it all: they can receive both DVB-S and DVB-S2 transmissions as well as modulations in MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. A satellite receiver with a DVB-S2 tuner can also receive DVB-S channels but it needs separate demodulators for MPEG-2 and MPEG-4. The SatcoDX Satellite Chart lists all of these channels regardless of what transmission mode or modulation mode they use and marks each channel with the mode that it uses. If you have a standard digital receiver look for channels marked like this: TV channel transmitted in DVB-S and modulated in MPEG-2 If you have a high quality HDTV receiver look for channels marked like this: TV channel transmitted in DVB-S2 and modulated in MPEG-4 Some channels are encrypted and cannot be received with FTA (Free-To-Air) receivers; you would need receiver with a CI or CAM slot. These channels are marked like this: Standard TV channel in DVB-S and MPEG-2 but encrypted The same is true for some HDTV channels. These are marked like this: High definition TV channel in DVB-S2 and MPEG-4 but encrypted Some providers choose different transmission/modulation mode combinations. This is done primarily for technical reasons; these channels are marked like this: TV channel transmitted in DVB-S and modulated in MPEG-4 sames a before, but encrypted TV channel transmitted in DVB-S2 and modulated in MPEG-2 sames a before, but encrypted Note: transmission mode DVB-S2 and modulation mode MPEG-4 are the most effective modes and will gradually become more widely used.

The term Programming Type is a SatcoDX proprietary definition based on a kind of reverse logic. If a provider chooses to transmit their programming in MPEG-4 with AC3 Surround Sound, then it can safely be assumed that the high cost of transmission will be matched by equally high quality content. The use of Surround Sound really only makes sense when used with movies so such a channel with Surround Sound would make it a High Quality Home Cinema channel. If a program provider chooses normal audio transmitted in Layer 2 it most likely isn’t a movie channel but rather a high quality general entertainment channel. SatcoDX identifies these channels as High Quality Home Entertainment. If a provider opts to utilize the more economic MPEG-2 transmission mode, but decides to use either AC3 Surround Sound or standard Layer 2 audio transmitting at very high bitrates over 5 Mbps, this generally indicates that it is a movie channel and SatcoDX refers to these as Home Cinema. If however the average bitrate of a channel falls between 3 and 5 Mbps, then this channel would typically not be a movie channel. SatcoDX considers this type of channel to be a Quality Entertainment channel that is usually used by a national broadcaster or a public television station. The most cost effective way of transmitting a digital channel is by using MPEG-4 and Layer 1 audio. This mode is sometimes used for point-to-point transmissions but is generally not meant for public viewing since MPEG-4 receivers are not normally used in the reception of low quality channels. SatcoDX refers to them as Cost Conscious Entertainment. The most economic transmission mode is MPEG-2 with a low Bitrate between 1.5 and 3 Mbps. This mode reaches the largest number of viewers at modest costs with moderate quality and is thus best used by news channels and general entertainment channels. These channels are not meant to be watched on big screen TVs. SatcoDX identifies them as News + Series. Some providers scrape the bottom of the barrel and minimize the bitrate to between 0.5 and 1.5 Mbps. The resulting low quality is clearly visible to the viewer. Quality is of no importance for such a program provider. This is merely their way of showing that they exist. SatcoDX refers to them as Low Level. Lastly, there are channels that only provide still pictures or some form of a slide show with the displayed image changing every so often. Pay operators typically use this method to show a fixed FTA picture or by commercial operators urging viewers to dial a pay number. In any case, these channels are not TV programs and are identified as Advertisement by SatcoDX.

Alexander Wiese Nokia Mediamaster 9800S

We have been waiting for over one year and finally it is here: the new Nokia 9800S Mediamaster. Only shortly before the Mediacast99 started in London, we received our first test version of this digital box. It would have been better to wait for an update of the firmware, but then it would have been too late to tell you all about it in this issue of TSI. At the end of this test report you will read about the new features. The big changes have not only taken place on the inside but on the outside as well. Nokia’s latest box was given a completely new styling of the housing and remote control. On the front, the colour of the DVB logo indicates the type of receiver, where blue stands for a satellite, orange for a cable and green

for a terrestrial receiver. What is left is the famous green display. It shows the name of the channel currently being processed. The 9800S can store up to 2000 channels. Still perfectly hidden behind a lid are the emergency buttons and the PCMCIA slots for Common Interfaces and also a slot for a Viaccess smartcard. Viaccess is integrated in this new Mediamaster. Using this Common Interface technology makes the receiver remarkably universal towards any encryption method. Almost any encryption system in use within Europe today will ﬁnds its way in a Common Interface module. At this moment, modules are available for Conax (Finland, Norway and Denmark), Nagravision (Spain), Cryptoworks (Czech Republic and Xtra-Music, the former DMX) and Irdeto (except for the modiﬁed Irdeto by DF1/ Premiere). The built-in Viaccess decoder makes reception of French and Russian channels possible.

So let’s hop on to the back. Unfortunately, there is only one LNB input. No output to connect an analogue receiver to. Also located at the back are two Scart connectors. Still, it is possible to connect both your television and VCR and an analogue receiver. The manual clearly described how to do this. Nokia has understood very well why many users of prior Mediamasters had opened their box and installed a phono connector for the digital audio output. This new 9800S has been given it already by Nokia. Of course, an analogue audio output is also present, both in cinch. The famous RS-232 interface is still present and can be used to update the ﬁrmware or channel settings. However, you don’t need to update your receiver using the Internet. A new service from Nokia is that you can have the receiver updated using a special signal on the Astra, Hotbird, Thor or Sirius. It will update your receiver to the latest situation.

A modulator is now built-in and is software adjustable. It can be set to any channel between 21 and 69. The remote control was fully redesigned. It is designed to fit perfectly well in your hand, but it also looks very fine. The circular menu buttons are still there. New buttons are Freeze, Service options and a recall function for the channel you have been watching most recently. The graphical user interface will easily guide you through the first steps of installation. First, you can determine the language of the box. Here you can choose from English, German, Swedish, French, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish. After that you have to tell the receiver what other equipment you have installed. When using a universal LNB, you can immediately start enjoying the show. Of course, after you have properly aligned the dish. A measuring tool is built-in and shows the relative signal strength. After entering the values for a new channel, just press the OK button and the quality of the signal is shown. Almost any digital signal available can be caught. If ever you want to receive a far away signal that is not automatically recognised by this new Mediamaster, just enter the transponder settings and have the box do its job. Even without the PID-codes the Nokia 9800S will find almost anything. This was not the case for SCPC signals, but after the already mentioned software update, this problem will be solved. Searching manually for certain channels is possible. Unfortunately, the functions in the extensive menu structure are not very fast. Switching channels however is done very fast. The EPG has been fully redesigned and could easily replace your current printed TV-guide. Unortunately, a lot of programme providers still don’t supply the information with their signals. Also in Radio mode the EPG will do its job.

Finding the channel you want to watch will be a little bit difﬁcult in a range of 2000 channels. Therefore, you can build your own favourites lists. Up to nine different listings with a maximum of 99 channels per listing can be built. This way, every member of your family can have its own favourites listing. But you can also use the nine listings to categorise. It is easy to delete channels or to change the order. You can even change the name of a channel and it is also possible to lock channels. Nokia will supply the 9800S with two listings programmed: one FTA only and one with both FTA and pay-TV. On the pay-TV side, the box uses age differentiation to determine if someone is allowed to watch certain channels. This prevents your youngest from seeing things he or she had better not seen. Channels can also be locked with a four-digit code. Nokia has built this 9800S being very sensitive. So we tried C-band reception. Using a 2.4m dish, the global and hemi-beams of Intelsat were caught without any problem. However, you will need a C-band LNB for this. With SCPC enabled in the most recent ﬁrmware, many DXers will get a warm feeling from this new box. Remarkable and a little disappointing is the disappeared SCSI connector. We still believe real multimedia is made of more than a satellite receiver only. One should be able to connect an external DVD or CD-ROM drive. The teletext decoder processed the data very fast. Whenever a channel uses subtitles or has a second audio carrier you can easily select the service with the option button. The i-button not only gives you all data about the channel, but also time and a short note about the programme on. Pressing the i-button again will give more detailed information about the programme and also about what’s next. Conclusion With the new 9800S Nokia offers a high-end digital receiver targeted at family use. The use of both Kuand C-band reception, free satellite selection and a real universal voltage range (95-260V, 50/60Hz) make this receiver really globally approved. The completely restyled EPG and on-screen display sets a new standard as far as we are concerned. The initial installation can also be done without the manual, since it is made very simple and the menus are all clearly laid out. In standby mode, the 9800S only consumes about 3 watts.

Where you used to need a dish of several meters to be able to watch Thai TV, today a small dish of only 75 cm will do the trick, offering a picture without any sparks. Now, everybody can obtain news directly from the source, from countries like Chile and Argentina. For European people living abroad it is now possible to directly tune into the signals of Italy, Arab countries and many more. There are some requirements to a receiver that can be used globally. Some regions will require proper reception of the C-band, where others require Ku-band reception. A dual polariser with a servo motor is needed to receive both signals, so the receiver must be able to control this piece of equipment as well. Another important issue is the reception of FTA signals (Free-to-Air). But being able to subscribe to some pay-TV package will require the receiver being able to handle all kinds of encryption methods. A Common Interface is the solution.The new Praxis 9800CI will meet all these requirements and many more. At the time we tested this receiver there was no distributor in Europe yet, so we had to get our test sample from Dubai. The outside of the receiver looks much the same as all its predecessors. There is no analogue receiver part built in and the space coming available because of this is now used to store more digital programmes. A total of 2,900, to be precise (2000 TV, 900 radio). For every region around the world this should cover all needs. On the front, a large green display indicated the channel ID, the programme mode and time when in standby mode. Buttons hidden behind a lid enables you to operate the complete receiver. The standby-button can be easily operated and is not placed behind the lid. Also neatly covered by this lid are both slots for CI-modules. A servo polariser can be connected to the terminals at the back. There is no positioner built into this receiver. This is a shame since after testing this receiver for over a longer period we found it would work well with a motorised dish. Three scart connectors at the back connect to your television set, VCR and an external decoder (like for RAI for instance). Additionally, outputs are available for audio-in and video-

in phono connectors. The 0/12 Volt connector can control an external switch and the serial RS-232 interface enables the updates of the firmware and channel settings at 38.400 Baud. A modulator is built-in and it is software adjustable. It will integrate the receiver’s signal into an existing terrestrial signal. A nice detail is that you can use any channel available in the total UHF frequency range (in Europe: PAL D/K, B/G, I and SECAM L). Another item back on this receiver is a main power switch. The remote control is designed to fit easily into your hand and the most important keys are all located together in this circular layout which is common today. According to the manufacturer of this receiver, it is a real Plug-&-Play thing. This is generally true, despite all the features available on this box. Normally, you will use this receiver on one or two dishes (LNBs). The initial installation, in fact, only consists of setting the proper LOFs. More dishes can be controlled by this receiver since it supports DiSEqC 1.1 and the common 12V control signal. The antenna menu gives you a lot of options to control your dish configuration. For every satellite you can store a different LOF. When one satellite operates in the C-band you can store the 5.150 GHz and for the Ku-band 10.0 GHz. Another satellite can be set to a universal LNB. Polarisation switching is done using the 14/18V-control signal from the receiver, but this only goes for Ku-band reception, of course. For C-band, you will need to use the servo polariser. For every satellite you can store a different skew. It is possible to use the 9800CI in a small CTV network. Whenever a particular satellite is not available in the long list, you can still easily add it to the system by entering the values needed. You can programme any channel from the TELE-Satellite listing into the transponder listing. Although you can manually set every detail of a channel, the automatic search is much more comfortable. PID-codes are filtered from the data stream and stored with the channel. The Praxis 9800CI is able to determine the FEC itself, however this doesn’t go for the symbol rate.

Praxis DigiMaster 9800CI For one year we have all been betting on dual receivers, offering both analogue and digital reception. However, the situation today shows us that most analogue programmes are also available in digital. That’s the reason why most manufacturers now focus on the digital receiver market.

Amstrad SAT 401 SDU 80

A couple of years ago, putting up a satellite dish at home was a rather expensive experience and therefore a step only taken after serious negotiations within the family. After all members had pointed out their opinion, the next step was talking to the engineer who had to install the complete installation. Today, the situation has changed a lot. A complete installation costs only a fraction of what it was in the early days, and installation is just a matter of plug-and-play. Buying a satellite dish and an analogue receiver has become more of an impulsive buy. Amstrad has recognised this market and has therefore introduced a new set with an 80cm dish, a mono block LNBF (for both Astra and Hotbird) and the analogue mini receiver SAT 401. It comes rather complete. Only cabling is not included, but then again that is so very difﬁcult to be predetermined in length. This set comes with an 80cm dish made of stainless material. Although putting the parts together is a real piece of cake, the included manual will give thorough explanations for those still unfamiliar with it. Although mainly targeted at the Astra/Hotbird market share, this set will also do perfectly well in any other situation

where there is a separation of 6 degrees between two satellites. The included SAT 401 analogue receiver offers 400 channels, most of which are already programmed with the major channels on all satellites between 42° east and 34.5° west. On the front of the receiver, a large four-digit display indicated the current channel id. When programming the receiver, it indicates the current values. Also positioned on the front are the emergency operation buttons. Since the receiver is rather small, it features only two Scart connectors. One for your television set and one for a VCR or decoder. Two phono jacks supply your stereo with the proper stereo sound. Although a mono block LNB in fact

consists of two LNBs in one housing, still only one cable is used to connect. A rather remarkable speciﬁcation is the reception frequency range which stretches from 800 up to 2250MHz. This is a rather large spectrum. Terrestrial signals can be combined with that of the receiver. Unfortunately, Amstrad decided to use an old-fashioned adjusting screw for setting the appropriate output channel. The remote control is much bigger than we expected. It has 16 keys and a numeric keypad. In daily use however, you will only use ﬁve of them. The rest is used for programming stuff like 22kHz, satellite A or B, sleep timer or other programming facilities.

176 TELE-satellite — Broadband & Fiber-Optic — 08-09/2009 — www.TELE-satellite.com

In practice Putting the parts of the dish together is very easy. However, we missed some information on the appropriate elevation angle. But since we are dealing with a smaller dish, this also means the opening angle is much larger, making it therefore easier to find a signal using the famous trial and error method. For central Europe, put the dish in a more or less 11 o’clock position and the first signals should be received. Amstrad assumes you will use a universal LNB with this receiver and therefore the values are pre-programmed, but these can of course be changed to 10.0, 10.75, 11.47 and 5.15 (for C-band reception). But since we are talking about a complete kit here, why should we be willing to change these values? In fact, this is the only programming you would have to do prior to start using the receiver. Although the receiver can be reprogrammed according to your personal needs, there is no need to do so when using it in conjunction with the supplied dish and mono block LNBF. DiSEqC (v1.0) takes care of the selection of the right satellite. The SAT 401 doesn’t feature an on-screen display but the front display makes programming real child’s play. For every channel, the video level can be set in two steps. Audio frequencies are simply chosen from a prefixed list and for de-emphases you can choose from 50µs, 75µs, J17 or Stereo (Panda compatible). Although not really being Wegener Panda, the system performs well and offers a crystal clear sound. The quality on audio level also shows on the video side of the receiver. A fine tool is the offset function on the remote control. It enables you to finetune the audio and video frequency.

All Satellites with a Fixed Dish

In the article there is presented a new concept of a SAT-TV antenna with a superwideangle sector of the feed scanning, the mirror of spherical proﬁle being immovable. The angle sector of coverage reaches 140° which permits to cover practically all the visible satellites. The antenna aperture dimensions are 1.5 x 2.8 m. The concept offered presents a special interest for antennas of more than 3 m in diameter with large mass which are difﬁcult to rotate and position.

Low-Cost reception of weather satellites

Weather satellites use frequencies around 137MHz. To perfectly receive the data, a bandwidth of 34 to 40kHz is required. A normal radio scanner won’t do the job here. Some modiﬁcations will need to be done as most

scanners have bandwidths of 15 or 90kHz. The solution is DIY which is no problem as only relatively low frequencies are involved. In 1994, a project named HRX-137 started. It is a build-ityourself receiver. Throughout the years, the quality has been greatly improved. And the imagination of amateur developers seems to have been unlimited, making it almost a professional receiver. The basic version with Scan control continuously searches the 137Mhz and locks on to any weather satellite signal it ﬁnds. Other signals are ignored. During our tests, the following frequencies were used: NOAA 12 on 137.500MHz NOAA 14 on 137.620MHz NOAA 15 on 137.500 MHz Meteor 3-5 on 137.300 MHz (will be replaced with the new Okean) Okean 4 (1-7) on 137.400 MHz Sich-1 on 137.400 MHz Resurs 0 (1-4) on 137.850 MHz We asked TSI hardware guru Jan to build the receiver and test it, all in one weekend. And indeed on Monday morning the result was a perfect receiver for the price of only 110 Euro. On the front, 16 LEDs are in place to indicate the frequency range between 137.0 and 138.0 MHz. It shows the scan procedure or the relative frequency when locked on to a satellite.

Once upon a time, at King Arthurs throne, while the clown is doing his tricks, the magician tells a story: »Many years from now fun and enjoyment will fall down from the skies. Men and women will taste from it, and be silent and calm, leaving the ruler alone to rule. Everyone will have a small box with buttons agore, ordering his or hers entertainment. This box will be called remote, but this is hundreds of years from now.» King Arthur: »Damn!«
