The streaming runs in full screen mode so you can see the videos in a better way. Settings option can be visited to customize device options, add-ons, TV sources and channels.
There are three distinguishing features in the software that make it better than many other products. It has the capability of supporting picture in picture i.e. one channel will run in full screen with volume and other one will run in smaller sized screen on mute. You can record or schedule recording channel flipping, app closing and streaming through settings. The streaming is broadcasted by catching channels from satellite. For this purpose Digital Satellite Equipment Control Protocol is used.
Supported Devices:
ProgDVB was developed solely for Windows Operating System. It can run on Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 versions. Though it is small in size itself but it needs larger memory space for properly showing the channels on your system. Another necessity is the presence of .NET framework 2.0 or 4.0 on the system on which the software will work. A high speed network adapter is preferred too.
