Dish Network Tuner Coming Soon?
It has been a
while since we heard about native Dish Network tuners for Media Center, but
according
to one commenter on my Media Center beta post some e-mails might have gone
out about testing such a tuner.
I’ve personally heard nothing about Dish Network tuners, and
all that Microsoft has talked about is DIRECTV.
Those talks started well over
two years ago, so I find it strange that Dish has managed to jump in under
the radar.
That said the infrastructure will be in place for Dish
Network support. Media Center will
officially support DVB-S and DVB-S2, so the only part that it needed would be a
tuner that supports Dish Network’s Conditional Access (CA) system.
