Alicenikky:
Please is Nigcomsat working, mine is currently off

Yes it is,check your installation

donpapi14:
Please who can help me? Been trying to track NigComsat 1R.. but I'm getting 0%
quality strength

Change your LNB setting/Frequency to 9750/10600
If not you'll dry in the sun

texazzpete:
Actually, Android is only just getting a system wide dark mode with Android 10. And that just got released on September 3rd.

I have dark mode on my Samsung Galaxy A50. I got it last month. Get your facts right

Spy360:
Impressive. But can't their engineers reveal the sat feed? Even to close pals

Seems you guys still don't really understand how this stuff works.
Data is encrypted [primary] before been feed through to the control at SA or wherever it is,which is furthermore decrypted and then encrypted [secondary] again.It is this secondary encryption provided by several CAS/CAM companies like Viacess,Nagravision and all the rest that our receivers "understand".
At their "raw" state,even if you know the satellites, our receivers wouldn't be able to pick them since they're not compatible.
All these encryption is done to ensure maximum security

I just don't want to get into frivolous argument.

After reading his post, I just gave up on his misinformation and then took my time to study how EPL distribute their content world wide to Paytv operators who then provide the contents to us at home.

There is no way any Paytv would operate without getting Signal from Satellite feed. What some of the broadcast organization does is to have a satellite which them may not disclose to anyone save the Paytvs they are sending signals to. Hence, this contents are available 24/7 which can then be redistributed.

DSTV is head quartered in South Africa. All the EPL contents you watch on Super 1 to 10 is sent to them through dedicated channels on the satellite/feed. DSTV doesn't have cameras or OB vans in England.

I checked https://www.arqiva.com/case-studies/arqiva-and-plp-deliver-premier-league-football-to-the-world/

I'll extract the key parts in quote below


Fact 1, DSTV is been fed through Satellite, likewise Startimes. They don't have cameras in all 20 Stadia in England, neither does Startimes have cameras in all 18 Stadia in the Bundesliga



Fact number 2, they have been doing this since 2007


Number IMG and PLP owns the production including cameras etc


This part nailed his argument to the grave.

EPL is delivered through Feed.

End of discussion
There are two major Paytv operators in Nigeria at the Moment.

DSTV from SA and
Startimes from China

DSTV owns the right for EPL, LaLiga, Serie A and UCL. They have an alliance with the content owners, who provides a link to DSTV to get all contents, which DSTV then encodes and you'll need their decoder to decode the contents. These contents are not provided through web. No way, cos it would be very expensive streaming such heavy HD contents. Hence, they're distributed through Satellite feeds, which is cheaper and can be encrypted using some of the latest technologies available.

You are not getting my point. The "feed" I refer to isn't the one you're talking about.
For any two or more ways communication, data must be sent and received across these paths and hence it's a feed.
The feed we all hunt for isn't the same feed which these contents are "originally" transmitted on.
There are cameras across the several stadia to record each event/game; This doesn't mean DSTV have cameras there, the camera provides every "content distributor" with these feeds before they're been broadcasted to us,that's were IMG and all the rest comes to play.
Sorry I was way to ambiguous with regards to the term "feed"

davodyguy:
Thanks for stopping by

I just don't want to argue with these guys, cause it's like beating a dead horse to move.

Nigerians love EPL due to the effect of Kanu, JJ Okocha, Obafemi Martins etc that played in England.

When Kanu and George Finidi were in Ajax and won the UCL in 1995, many Nigerians started supporting Ajax and in those days Rashidi Yekini played for Victoria Setubal, Mutiu Adepoju was in Spain and Okocha played in Eintracht Frankfurt. Many Nigerians were limited to Football Made in Germany between 1993 to 1998 when NTA gets their feed from Transtel of Germany. DSTV was not even existing or popular at all. We were watching ABG with those very big dishes in the 90s, and limited to Cable Tel from Disc Engineering receiving signal from Yagi antenna.

All of a sudden, TV Africa came in 1997 and started broadcasting EPL, later in 1998 DSTV gained ground with EPL. By then JJ Okocha had moved to England, Kanu also left Inter Milan for Arsenal, leading to these crazy love for EPL.

Nigerians think they are the only ones in the world and when they love something fanatically, it is the same elsewhere.

DSTV gets EPL through feeds, as the contents they show are not theirs. The satellite they use, no one knows.
DSTV gets La Liga also through SKY Sports feed. The satellite they use, no one knows.
DSTV gets Serie A through feed as well. The satellite they use, no one knows.

That Startimes is getting bundesliga through feed is nothing new. Startimes is from China and they broadcast Bundesliga to South Africa, West Africa and East Africa. The Bundesliga rights provider need to supply Startimes a feed or feed channels close to the region they are broadcasting from, which is why 8 degrees west was selected as it is within reach for Startimes

I just don't want to engage in Frivolous argument cos many people view things from their perspective and then generalize

DSTV is based in South Africa and not in England, hence all EPL contents are delivered to them through a feed. The feed is coded cos of TV rights and the way England football is

First of all,let me clear the air.
I'M PROMOTING DSTV or neither are my a DSTV agent

I can't verify your claims for others but for that of EPL,DSTV doesn't broadcast it using a FEED.
Before these events grace our screens,it must pass through a "stream" or several streams.
For everywhere in the world where the EPL is broadcasted in English, there's a dedicated channel that markets these "contents" including all of its programs [Football today,fanzone,preview and review,netbusters and all the rest)
During live matches,the same camera that records these events live in the stadium are the same views you see on your TV as long as you're elsewhere [Not in the UK] excluding Sky and BT. Commentary and Studio analysis MAY vary but content is the same — of course there are renderings made to enhance picture and audio,noise cancellation and all that which is done by the technical team of the content holder;data is transmitted and encrypted at the same time. Do you know why that funny looking alphabet combination appears on your screen while a live match is on? It's different for several providers but appears at the same time,this keys vary too.
If you have an orange tree and supply oranges to several people, you must not tell them what to do with it,one can directly resell in the market while the other makes juice with it.
You should check again what a FEED means.
Again,I'm not a DSTV agent!!!

When will Rivers state civil servants be promoted after several years of stagnation?

Wike no dey try for this one at all...more over 4yrs now,no promotion, no salary increase

Nbote:
In as much as Nigerians are jus being petty, d fact dat he is a gospel artiste means dat his fans hold him in a particular regard and see him as a Christian model becos of d message in his songs.. But if Pastor Chris perms his hair and doesn't get much backlash, dyeing hair blonde shldnt

I guess this is one of the reasons why Lecrae cancelled his tour in Nigeria. Gospel rap will never have a reception in Nigeria. Some people now think dying your hair is a sin

Ceramic was used as heat shield again, seems NASA forget too soon, The Challenger, upon investigation also had heat shield problems apart from event-changing "O-ring".The temperatures were far less than what this prob is going to take on. No matter how thick the shield is, as long as it's ceramic, it will crack and fall off. Design heat shield is still a challenge,NASA still doesn't admit this

Tolu95:
I need gospel rap songs please

Not sure if Nigeria even have gospel rappers, so I switched to the US Gospel rappers. Lecrae and the entire 116 clique, Bryann Trejo too. Check out there lecrae tracks : Background (Feat. Andy Mineo), Boasting (Feat. Anthony Evans) Messengers (Feat. For King and country), Broken (feat. Kari Job), Don't waste your life, Tell the world (Feat. Mali Muzik)...Lecrae is the best gospel rapper out there!!!

MicroSweet:
why still write "2" against the square root sign ? its unmathematical

Brother, I weak... this equation doesn't add up, tried it myself

radiokilla:
Differential equation. The question is inconclusive though. Soft question for engineering folks

Saw this post on FB... but then again, the answer to these wouldn't give a unique answer. It will give a set of integers and variable,therefore this equation cannot give a definitive answer

Earthbound:
This was an attempt by her village people to test a new, sophisticated arrow they have been working on.

Couldn't agree the more with you. I still wonder how possible a car on the "P" selection will still be moving weither the engines are running or not

Psychodavidovic:
Infinix really did great here.

My observation

Pros

- Really Nice design ✅
- Dual Camera ✅
- 4000mah ✅

Cons

- Old/Outdated Snapdragon Chipset.
- Quad-core 1.4GHz on Hot 4, 5 and now 6 ?
- Probably no fast Charge

Xioami Redmi 5 is way better and even costs less.

What pisses me off the more is the cheap plastic they use... The design for hot S is better than this mediocre plastic that'll break and scratch easily.I'm really disappointed in the body design material

neyop85:
This action can only be justified if they restore power immediately after the storm. But no, Naija NEPA uses the storm as an excuse to hold power indefinitely.

After the rain, they wait for the cables to dry first ���

Coldfeets:
You have a point there.

As for me, the main reason why I am yet to marry is because I haven't seen or found a girl so interesting enough.

Most girls I know are so intellectually below me. My above average IQ is the problem here...

Some friends advised me to just accept the girl and then begin to train her.

And I'm like... na me be her mama and papa wey suppose train her since tay tay...?

Maybe na baby mama me I go do finally finally because as for me, living in a house with someone who cannot challenge you intellectually all in the name of marriage is the shortest cut to suicide.

Uncle Albert Einstein, you've shown yourself, I hope your high IQ can help this country overcome its woes! As your moniker implies ;you really have a cold feet!

People don't even know what normal flora is.
They just take a lot of antibiotics unnecessarily.

All those people selling herbal mixtures in pickup vans have made a lot of money from people with their claims that their drug will cure staph aureus

Smh..

Just goto mile 3 market in PH, you go just tire

NwaAmaikpe:



Inferiority complex.

If the suspects were Nigerians they'd sit them on the floor wearing only boxers and cuffs on their legs.

But see how the oyibo suspects look like a boy-band group posing for an album cover.
Not even a handcuff on any of them.
Shame on Naija.

Baba you dey vex o

Alex80s:
One day they will recall cars for not having engine...

I swear, I'm now beginning to wonder if these auto companies gain from recalling vehicles

martyns303:
always open to improvement, more so, we don't know if the inner part is coated with insulating materials. about the distance between the "flake" and pot, considering the cooker doesn't have a means of regulating the heat, the distance is not a bad idea, to prevent excess heat (excess heat burns food from the bottom of pot early before proper cooking). the distance can also prevent excess smoke.

even if you are cooking with a gas cooker, heat will be lost to the environment, as long as the useful % is significantly more than the % of heat lost. then the system is OK.

Oga that "cooker" is just too inefficient. The losses is way too much. The design alone highlights the inefficiency that even an armchair engineer could tell.Thermodynamics tells us no system is 100% efficient but most systems efficiency exceed 90%.This "cooker's" inefficiency is way below that.

tziz:
That would've been nice, when will you be around?

If everything goes to plan, I will be back in town next week

Is this Satfinder an app or a device? Hw much does it cost and how can I get it?

Sorry I'm not in town, would've offered to help you get it installed!

please where can i buy 1.8cm dish in aba.i need direction.

Long time bro... where have you been

ludakristos:
Sorry I don't have an open decoder to show you, but if you open your decoder you'll see that a small squared round chip, about the size of of a fingernail. Just give it to guys who work on decoders and tell them is signal problem.

Haha... even your description is confusing.How can something be squared and round at the same time?

see as u fall ur hand for public

I nevet wanted to quote him again to explain anything because he wouldn't understand.He idiot was shouting MPH up and down,ask him to convert 249MPH to Km/h...then I'll take it from there. It seems his parents just wasted there money paying his school fees!!

The Chiron is one of does cars I will spend my money on.
Engineering at its best .
Imaging cruising at 200MPH with one hand on the sterring wheel, I Mean MPH not KMPH.
Cars that bring Joy and Happiness. The exhaust sound alone puts smiles on faces .

God is the only one that can do this kind of blessing for me.

Did you do physics in school at all, what's the difference between MPH and KMPH

Justinah4real:
Pleease, their is a navy woman looking for an installer in Port harcourt. Can you come or you have any friend in PH. How much are you going to charge for your Handwork. Please text me if you are interested 07067425398.

So my sister chose Uniben (Federal) as her first choice and RSUST (State) as her second choice, after filing the required jamb details on the Rivers State University website, it keeps giving the error "Not Found: JAMB Registration was not found"
Do you have any solution to this issue or is it that they don't allow second choice applicants?

Nope, no second choice bro!
