any problems. As far as the<br />

PCs operating system, all<br />

Windows versions starting<br />

with XP as well as Linux are<br />

supported.<br />

We found it interesting<br />

that, although Tenow has<br />

their own DVB reception tool<br />

that goes by the name of TB-<br />

SViewer, they freely suggest<br />

alternative software solutions.<br />

In particular, there‘s<br />

DVBDream, DVBViewer,<br />

DVBLogic, DVBControl, MediaPortal,<br />

TVheadend, Prog-<br />

DVB, MuMuDVB or DVBLast.<br />

In this way you can use your<br />

favorite software. If you‘re<br />

not sure which program<br />

you should use, nearly all<br />

of them offer free trial versions<br />

that you can download<br />

from the Internet so you can<br />

test them out. In any case<br />

though, they all offer a much<br />

wider range of functions<br />

compared to the rather rudimentary<br />

TBSViewer.<br />

Because of this we won‘t<br />

be talking about the everyday<br />

use of the TBS QBOX<br />

5925 in this test report; all of<br />

the available DVB reception<br />

tools are too different from<br />

each other in their capabilities<br />

and their expandability.<br />

We are much more interested<br />

in a special feature of the<br />

TBS QBOX 5925 that makes<br />

it stand out above all the<br />

other USB DVB-S2 reception<br />

solutions on the market:<br />

namely the ability to receive<br />

VCM/ACM signals as well as<br />

MIS signals. What do these<br />

terms mean and what are<br />

they all about?<br />

There are several ways to<br />

transmit the data of a transponder<br />

via satellite. The<br />

standard that has been used<br />

thus far and the technology<br />

that is used by all the<br />

other standard receivers is<br />

called CCM (Constant Coding<br />

and Modulation). With this<br />
