chrgrims Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Hi, I want Norwegian tv channels here in petchabun. Can someone help me with finding the right solution? i guess i need to buy a big dish? Getting them on the net isnt really an option, because our net is CAT cdma. its nice, but not big enough for tv. TOT might have a big enough connection but they drop out very often here, especially in the most important time for tv, the weekend. as far as i know, there are not other ISP's here. thanks in advance, chr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monty Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I very much doubt there is any Norwegian programming available on the satellites visible here in Thailand. Both Norwegian sat TV providers (Viasat on Sirius 4 and Canal Digital on Thor 3/4) are on satellites which are below the horizon from within Thailand, so no reception possible. I am not aware of any "world" channels coming out of Scandinavia. The Germans have DW, Flemish Belgium and Netherlands have BVN etc. which being world channels are available on many different satellites, including on the ones visible from within Thailand.

Phil Conners Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Our "local' satellite guy advertise "watch swedish tv" on his car so it must be available. Though not Norwegian of course... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joncl Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 (edited) Our "local' satellite guy advertise "watch swedish tv" on his car so it must be available. Though not Norwegian of course... It is called SVT World on Thaicom 5 C band and their web site is here (it is pay TV) They say; Teknisk information SVT World sänds digitalt och krypterat i Viaccess 2.6 via satelliten EUROBIRD 9A med täckning över hela Europa inkl Kanarieöarna, Madeira, Azorerna, norra Afrika, Mellanöstern och västra Asien, samt över satelliten THAICOM 5 med täckning över Afrika, Asien och Australien.

balo Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 ok, svt world looks nice. I guess i would get some winter sports etc there, which is what i need. Theres several streaming channels available on the net . All the programs from NRK 1 and 2 are free to watch and TV2 charge you a monthly fee. If you try google for it theres many options. TV3 Norway also started streaming most of their programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok I see your point , slow connections will not work . From my apartment in Bangkok I had no problems watching the channels from the laptop connected to a big screen TV. The quality was better than I expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiSunshine Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Where do you find these Scandinavian channels at the Internet? I am from Denmark and I would love to watch some Danish TV once in a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgrims Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 i just ordered a 180 cm dish. I will get it installed next week. I will report back then . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThaiSunshine Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Great....I will look forward to that :-) If you happen to find some Danish channels on this dish, then I also want to buy one :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Conners Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) Sorry but you won't find any Danish channels on any satellite that can be received here. If you go to dr.dk > bonanza you can download practically any program that has been shown on DR1, free (so far). The connection is dead slow but hit pause until it's finished downloading then you can watch it without interruptions once the download has completed. TV2 have something similar with tv2.dk > sputnik, but it seems you need to pay 49 dkr/month for that access.

balo Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Great....I will look forward to that :-) If you happen to find some Danish channels on this dish, then I also want to buy one :-) If you have a fast enough internet line you can try the free streaming channels , just google for it. I have been watching Tv3 denmark sweden and norway , nrk 1 and 2 , svt 1 and 2 , sometimes the connection is slow but It's better than nothing.
