Hurray!! | Don't give up. It looks like a really nice receiver. Have you tried to scan any satellite with it? That Irdeto slot can be great for a Nova package or even several adult packages in Irdeto.

My System: Sky-HD | You can input any SR you want and yes it does have a diseqc mode. I have a working Irdeto card i can get some scrambled channels on 5.0W so i`m wondering will this decode any Irdeto encryption ? | ||

I know with Conax, that there are different revisions of software for the CAM, and for example only the later ones will work DigitAlB. I can only assume that the same goes for Irdeto, with respect to Irdeto providers. The only way to guarantee a card will work in a CAM is to get the one reccomended by the provider, failing that the card supplier should be aufait. Of course, unless the card is a non-official one possibly, they a provider specific and will only work with the one that they were bought for, as the codes on the card won't be correct.
