	Science Fair Projects - 4DTV
		In big dish satellite television viewing circles, 4DTV is essentially synonymous with signals that use the DigiCipher 2 standard of signal encryption and compression, which is also owned by Motorola.
		Since 4DTV technology was originally developed by General Instrument (now the broadband division of Motorola) in 1997, it predates DVB-based digital television compression and therefore is incompatible with the DVB standard.
		4DTV was originally intended to be the digital signal compression standard for digital television and audio signals beamed to North America, but cannot truly be considered a de facto standard due to the large amount of available North American DVB satellite signals.

	4DTV Satellite Forum - DSR-920 Remote Control
		The 4DTV remote control is set at the factory to control all of the 4DTV receiver functions, but in order to use it to operate your TV and VCR as well, you will need to "program" it for the brand of TV and VCR you own.
		This means that when you press the 4DTV, TV or VCR keys on the remote control, you enable it to control each of these devices, one at a time.
		One of the newest features added to the 4DTV IRD is the ability for the remote control to operate the source volume of the receiver via UHF and Infrared (IR).

	Pansat 2700a and 4dtv - SatelliteGuys.US
		Are you sure all is setup right with the proper splitters and all, with the 4dtv on did you try flipping the polarity, because when you turn it off the 4dtv it auto goes to H or V (not sure witch one) so if that is the case you just are on the wrong polarity.
		Since its "set" (in my case) by the 4dtv by changing channels, the FTA receiver can only show channels of whatever polarity the 4dtv is on.
		Yes that is the way most people have them setup including myself, if your quality is low on the fta unit you can try adjusting the skew and bumping the dish with the 4dtv to optimize the quality on both units.

	4Play - Unlock your 4DTV's potential!
		What 4DTV users really want is the ability to add channels to those transmitted by Motorola and have the receiver remember these, but that's actually quite complicated to do for Motorola because of the way the DCII standard works.
		We could theoretically patch the 4DTV's firmware to allow you to do this, but their firmware is about 1.5MB of compiled C code and means that adding this kind of feature ourselves would be a colossal project.
		All of the 4DTV channels that Motorola defines are wideband signals that can be locked with just about any old LNB, even one that drifts in frequency badly.
