I don't see much in the specs department for your card. May not be capable if you are not getting proper video.

Almost as important as the card is your PC's processor and video card. I'm using a Prof 6200 and Radeon Stealth 256MB card which works great on 4:2:0, but barely gets one side margin on 4:2:2 because my processor is a six year old AMD 1.75Ghz. I get the HD moderately ok with some skipping and cutting out. Updating my PC is definitely on my "to do" list.

Couldn't find it with my Pansat. I hope someone else can help.

Unless the visitor is televising, I never expect the warrior games to be on sat. I can't recall an instance since they went to PPV that they've had games up on sat when the visitor wasn't broadcasting.

This is pretty off topic but I was curious, why does ABC sometime uplink the same game on Ku and C?

feed from the stadium to ABC master control on Ku, mix with commercials and send to affiliates on c.
If it's syndication you are referring to, it may be that not all of their stations have access to C or Ku only so they have to provide feeds on both bands to make sure their stations can receive the game.

That makes since but like the Cincinnati game backhaul was on C and Ku. I would think ABC/ESPN would only need one.

A lot of nationally televised games will have 2 feeds, one primary and one backup in case something goes wrong with the primary feed. Generally the main feed is on CBand and the backup is on KU, or if fiber is available the primary feed will be fiber well the backup will be on satellite, ie when you see TNT/ABC NBA feeds on cband those are generally backup feeds to fiber.

Just a follow to that question I asked regarding 4:2:2 feeds and how you can view them. While I didn't get those game feeds that I wanted on Sat. 11/7, I did dig and
found some good info. that people can use. 4:2:0 feeds are viewable by most boxes and most PC tuner cards with fast processors, but 4:2:2 feeds need special codecs
to enable viewing. Elecard (www.elecard.com) definitely works for PC tuner cards
to view 4:2:2 feeds. While I did not get it to work with MyTheatre, it worked very
well with DVBDream, using the Generic Renderer.
So, it seems that 4:2:2 needs a codec solution for viewing with DVB-PCI applications.
Not sure how you could enable it for sat boxes, but there must be a way.
