Card reader for sky

Hi there,
Ive got a skystar 2 pci card and am currently using it with DVB Dream to view the BBC channels.
Ive got a legitimate sky subscription and want to be able to put my sky card into the pc and watch the subscription channels with dvb dream.

I know I need a smart card reader for this (and a software cam) but I have no clue what one
People say "Phoenix reader" but I cant really find any called that?

Thank you

Well

You would need a Dragon cam to do that, does your skystar not have a pcmcia slot for a cam? There are plenty of threads about this procedure if you search the forum for them

The 'phoenix' that you refer to is a card programmer

Be aware there are a lot of rumours flying about that there will be a card swap in a few months time and the new cards will not allow emulators or cams to read them - so you may be stuck without pics!
