  I'm thinking of buying a WinTV-NOVA-S-Plus for my Vista Media Center.

Bearing in mind I'm in the United Kingdom, does anyone know if Vista Media
Center will list the free to air satellite listings in the program guide?

Many thanks.

If the UK listing are anything like the USA listings, the answer is NO.

It is very hard to find listings for FTA satellite stations.
The problem is no listing service does all that is available off of
satellites.

There is no way to really know what is available at any given time. There
are feeds that the stations use for their own material, that appear at
random times.

There are some ways to have an idea of what may be on, if you have listings
for the national networks.

Other than those national feeds, you have no way of knowing what may be
shown.
