New Sky Viewing Cards

Sky are going to be updating their viewing cards shortly, does anybody have any information how it will work for those of us using the Dragon/T-Rex CAM?

Is it likely to still work with the Dragon/T-Rex, or will it require some time and likely a new version of the Predator firmware for the new cards? Or worse!

Regards,

J

We just dont know at the moment.

Once reasonable numbers start getting posted out no doubt someone on the forum will do some tests and let us know

My System: Dreambox 7020si, Technomate TM600, Technomate TM9100 Fracarro Penta 85 Dish, Televes 0.6dB Quad lnb, TM SG2200 motor. 60cm Channel Master BSB dish on 28e, Mti Blueline 0.2db Twin Lnb. Rover ST-4 Meter Cyfra+ Subscription

It appears that on the Dreambox the card can be read using NewCS but as of yet theres nothing about them being opened using a Diablo cam or anything else similar

There are also problems with the card being paired to the receiver.

It appears that as long as the card is not inserted in an official Sky receiver it will open all channels that you are subscribed to. Once its been in a sky receiver it locks out the premium channels like the films and Sport.

looks like were going to have to use a box key again

Hope it gets sorted soon as theres no way i'm going back to using the crock of sh*t that Sky call a receiver
