Satellite videos working again

Not checked if satellite videos still working for a while, assumed it was.

I encountered a few problems having switched to an old raspberry pi-b to do the downloads and encoding which is also a SkyPiAQ test node, just to see how the hardware video encoding works using the omx mp4 encoder, I mean not bad, but quality is mediocre anyway. A vfat usb stick auto loading thing was the problem. Still, it is amazing how capable those old pi-b computers were. (and the pi zero).
So switched back to running on a Pi3, tried using h.265 but browser players not compatible enough, shame as it is like double space saving for same quality as standard h.264, so anyway sat vids for today back up with better quality videos.
Will get round to linking to all the missing videos.
