Are you sure Free To Air are blocked? By definition Free To Air are always clear and not reliant upon a specific box and/or Card.

Assuming you might mean stuff like ITV2/3/4 HD which are not Free To Air, currently not possible. Almost universally now only available to bona fide BSkyB Subscribers using a Card in a paired Box.

If you're using a "Gift" or other Commercial Card Share, no reputable Forum will help as such things are not only legally and morally dubious, but often unreliable.

BSkyB have taken steps to protect their Revenue by making Card Sharing access to HD Channels impossible and there have been several Prosecutions of Card-Share Providers.

Our advice on this Forum is to advise the acquisition of a Subscription from the Platform Provider.

I'll leave that one for a Dreambox owner to answer >> There are quite a few around on this Forum, so you shouldn't have long to wait.

"Greyed out" refers to the channel menu (a bit like what happens on a Humax Freesat when doing too many recordings). Happens on a Dreambox when satellites.xml doesn't correspond with lamedb.

Probably but he started 2 threads about the same issue and I already replied in the other one.

Those are free to air channels - you may just need to tweak the alignment of the dish a little.

Not sure what the problem is, but doing a re-scan of all the channels with the "network" option should retore all channels.

Also, when you say "greyed out" - where exactly? Infavourites or actually in the satellite "services"?
