Query : Understanding latency using oscam etc for foreign satellite

[manic01]

Thank you. Does that then represent 3 seconds latency in the pictures ?

No, but if you want to gamble the likes of sky de and UK etc are behind feeds

That’s all understood. Im blind to some events at the moment and limited by 1 box and 1 output.

Thank you.

Enjoying reading the 400 odd pages in the Viark thread whilst awaiting my box arriving

3 questions (i’ve answered (1) through searching)

1. I’ve only bought 1 viark box but will shortly have 4 lnb on the dish. Is there a switching product anyone would recommend (for sitting beside the viark) or is there the concept of the 4 lnb being combined through a switch (bracket?) into 1 universal feed which goes straight into the viark to pick from.

How do people that are non motorised run their setup ?

Edit. Answer. Diseqc switch found online. Technomate TM-4S - 4-way DiSEqC Switch

Do you get a 4 in 2 out option ?
Edit. Looks like the answer would be to use dual out lnb’s then create 2x4x1 diseqc so 2 feeds coming in giving option for 2nd viark / freesat box.

2. Anyone recommend installers in Glasgow / Scotland. I have a guy thats wired the original sky setup for my house but he’s giving it “you buy the kit and I will set it up”. Would like to find someone well versed, will likely be some offset tradeoffs to consider setting up the 4-way.

3. Telegram for VIARK is mentioned - link please.
