Yeah, that's the Nagravision that the article mentions at the end. There were programs that could use a TV capture card and decode it in real time on a 486DX2. They worked pretty well (I felt ok using it because we already had Canal+ but it was on the living room TV and my computer was on the opposite side of the house.)
"meuh meuh TV" was a famous one
Wilma and MoreTV in Spain for Windows, Xdtv/Xawtv with some Nagravision patch or plugin.

#33The canal+ bumper jingle mentioned in the article goes incredibly hard. It's a shame we don't see anything like this on modern big tv. https://fabiensanglard.net/discret11/jingle_clear.mp4
The (current, I believe) BBC News jingle is a real banger.

It references the Greenwich pips played on BBC radio stations so people know they're on time: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_Time_Signal
