Hi

Sorry if this a silly question, but my main area of expertise is Sky so this is new to me.

I have a manhattan plaza st120 receiver with an embedded irdeto cam. I maybe doing a Nile Showtime instal soon which I believe requires irdeto2 CAM. The question is will this receiver be ok with a Showtime card?

Cheers

Nick

If that's a fairly recent model then it should be OK, can't remember when they changed the spec, but it was quite a while ago.

I think it's a recent model - probably less 18 months old. I assume there is very little difference between the two Irdeto standards then?

Not sure what the differences are Nick, the Irdeto 2 cards were far more sophisticated, so i guess that the CAM had to address new layers on the card, the nice thing is, that Irdeto embedded receivers are relatively cheap as are Irdeto CAMs.
