Being a newbie, I have read all I can on this and other fora, and I think I understand now how to load my dragon cam with predator and keys. However, I have not figured out if I can use the dragon cam just as it is for some of the channels loaded in it, or if I need a programmed smart card also for all/some of them.

I understand for example that for Pre*i*re I need a Cerebro card, because it requires the crypto co-processor on the card. And for Viaaccess I need a funcard, right?

But for other channels? Which channels/systems can be watched without card inserted?

Could someone please give a short explanation of the interworking between cam keys and card keys (or point to me such information)?

Hi hnn,
you update your Dragon Cam with Predator firmware, using the Dragon loader card, this then opens what packages are available, without the need for a card.
At present you need a card for premiere, as the keys are not publicly known, but how much longer these cards will last is anybodys guess.
There is not a lot open at the moment, only SRG, a few of the smaller cryptowork packages, and Mediapark on 30W, a lot of which will open with any patched receiver, older cams or fun cards.
At present you don't really need a Dragon Cam, even though it is a good quality cam, but hopefully there will be something new available soon.
Best wishes
