i would like to get 4RT 5PORT5 on 13 hotbird,

i think/see (due to me being a noob) that if i get a funcard along with programmer i can get a CI slot for the pc, put that OPO5 stuff onto the func4rd, and shud be able to watch 4RT 5PORT5. please tell me if i am talking complete rubbish or wether im along the right tracks sumwere.

or do u reckon an emu will soon be availuable for the pc?
also is there any other advantages of the func4rd? could i use it anyway on my s1y d1gi box?

Thanks in advance.

The Funcard is pretty much only good for loading CAM software now, you certainly cant programme it with anything which will receive ART Sports. You need to subscribe for that I'm afraid.

No, the funcard, as i said, is not really very much use for viewing at all.

Not as far as I know for ART Sports, not even sure if there is a softcam to use with a phoenix interface for Conax, afraid that I don't really play with the PC card anymore. :)
