Twinhan DVB-S support utility for Microsoft MediaCenter 2005 (MCE2005)

Introduction:
   Microsoft's MCE2005 supports only DVB-T, and the utility provides a pseudo BDA DVB-T filter
   interface which transfers DVB-S streams to DVB-T, so as to Twinhan's DVB-S cards in MCE2005.

Install:
   Driver install, 
	   7021A USB    :install BDA driver v1.0.2.3 or later
	   878 PCI DVB-S:install BDA driver 1.0.3.1 or later
   After BDA driver installed, please run THSetup4MCE.exe.
   THSetup4MCE.exe will copy all the required files to \Program Files\DVBS4MCE.
   A registry key will be added,
     [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
     "DVB-S for MCE"="D:\\Program Files\\DVBS4MCE\\DVBS4MCE.EXE"
   With this registry key, Twinhan's MCE utility will be launched automatically everytime 
   when system is reboot.

Usage:
  
   1.Please click the ICON "MCE Virtual DVBT" on the task bar to pop up the console window.
   2.Select BDA Filter "DTV-DVB UDST7020BDA DVB-S Receiver"
   3.Check "Enable DVB-T Emulator"
   4.Select the Satellite name from the list and set LNB/DiSEqC configuration properly.
   5.Run MCE, and select TV Configuration
   6.While configuring TV signale, please select the country as "Germany"
   7.Follow the way to scan DVT-T programs 

Note:
   1.MCE2005 does not provide any MPEG2 decoder for playback, you should Install a proper MPEG2
     decoders (from Cyberlink, IVI, Elecard, or nVidia..)
     You may install latest PowerDVD 6 or WinDVD as well.
   2.If the folder \Encoder4MCE exists, THSetup4MCE.exe will prompt to install s/w encoder filters 
     for analog TV tuner card. Currently, Twinhan's 3250(ATSC+NTSC)'s and 3054(DVB-T+PAL/Secam)'s
     analog TV can be well supported in MCE2005 with s/w A/V encoder installed.

Known issue and limitation,
   1. Support only 878 BDA & 7021A
   2. Can support only one device
   3. If there are more than two DVB-S cards, it always selects the first one as default when reboot
