Short Bits: Vongo, VistaView QAM

Last a few days ago I talked about the quickly depleting online streaming section in Media Center, and today we officially have another one to go.  Vongo was the Starz-owned subscription download service that will now be history at the end of September (Via Ian Dixon).  A new service called Starz Play appears to be taking its spot, but it is not clear how or if it will integrate with Media Center.  The marketing genius in me questions why Vongo was not branded Starz Play to start with, but I guess catchy names are all the rage these days.

VistaView has released a patch to enable QAM support on their Saber DA-1N1 series of cards under the Media Center TV Pack.  Just install and reboot and you are said to be able to setup QAM within Media Center (TV Pack required).
