    Default Viewing and controlling a Sat feed from abroad

    Hi. I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction please? I have dishes and boxes on Eastern Aus satellite beams. I want to be able to access these from NZ for a few weeks. So basically I want to be able to scan manually, and view the feeds.. as low latency as possible.

    I see GT and Hellobox have stream out features, but they seem to be on a few seconds delay. Also one of the Hellobox tutorials seemed to say it's only available to view on the same network? I have looked at something called a Whitbox, but there is no mention of latency, and they start around $2k per unit. It was also mentioned to me to look into some software called VLC player.

    Just thought I would ask here as I'm sure some have experience with these... I think latency will be my biggest hurdle.
    Thanks

    Which satellites, which transponders and channels specifically, which location in NZ and what dish/LNB are you intending to use?

    It's satellite, so there will always be latency.... Why is that so critical for you?

    I intend on keeping my already installed and working dishes/boxes connected here on site, I just want to access them from another location. So H3, D3, D2 etc and the ch's and transponders vary. It's the various sporting feeds that pop up which I use, hence latency requirements

    Let's not beat around the bush, those wanting low latency are generally using sports feeds for betting purposes. Well, there's a difference between personally viewing them and needing to restream them. If you want to just watch them from NZ then connect it up to a pc with tuner card using Teamviewer and dvbdream would be fine as long as the connection has a good upload speed.
