There are many MTV HD and MTV Music HD channels broadcasted on Atlantic Bird 1 satellite 12.5W. However, This transponder is broadcasted with Multi Input Stream (MIS) mode which means a standard satellite receiver or satellite TV tuner which normally doesn’t have Multi Input Stream feature can’t receive these programs. I have ever tried the Paid subscription , But it was still not in a perfect HD. However, As I test with my new card -TBS6925, it do receive free MTV HD an MTV music HDin an amazing quality. It seems to be covering the whole Europe including Iceland, North Africa, Middle East, Western part of Russia, Eastern part of North America including part of Canada, Cuba, Dominica, part of Mexico and the whole South America. Check this link http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/125e_popd.html# in some weak signal region you may need a big dish.
The following report was done on site in Europe, so there is no guarantee that you can receive the same transponder elsewhere.
Before start the scan, it’s recommend to download the latest driver and TBSrecorder from TBS download zone(link to http://www.tbsdtv.com/english/Download.html)
This report is tested with combination of TBS6925Driver_V1.0.1.4 and TBSRecorder(V3.0.0.3).
The details of this transponder is:
Atlantic Bird 1 satellite at 12.5 West
12718 H, 36510, FEC 5/6,
8PSK Multiple Input Stream (MIS) transponder with four TS
Stream IDs: 33, 34, 35 36
Here are the screenshots and guide about how to filter MIS stream and watch/record it with DVB player.
1) Use TBSRecorder to lock the MIS frequency and after that choose "Input Stream ID" from the drop-down box and press "Apply" button – in the example MIS ID of 34 is selected:

2) Close TBSRecorder. It's not necessary to run it anymore after the MIS filter is set, i.e. the "Input Stream ID" is selected and applied.
3) (Optional) check with TransEdit that the correct TS stream is filtered (this step is not really necessary).

After check, you need to close TransEdit.
4) Open your favorite DVB player software (in the example TBSViewer is used, but of course you may use other software like DVBViewer, DVBDream, ProgDVB…) and then scan the same transponder from 1).scan is finished and four channels are found:

7) if you want to change selected MIS ID you need to repeat the step 1) and also if you don't have the channels from that MIS ID in your channel lists, re-scan in your favorite DVB player software.
It’s very easy to use the record or scheduled record features of the DVB player software for PVR.
