Right, I think I have all the information I need for my new, erm, "hobby" - right now I have a Smart Vento Plus (rebadged Force D-Master 1122s I believe) with two Vi*ccess slots and two CI CAM slots. Latest software's on it from Astra 1.
It's connected to an 80cm dish with monoblock @Astra1/Hotbird.
One has "Dragon" pencilled above it ;)
I believe I need a Dragon (any Dragon?), a loader card and a programmer
CAM: hxxp://www.nasacom.ch/infos/infos.asp?db=pc&product=2040
Prog: hxxp://www.nasacom.ch/infos/infos.asp?db=pc&product=2098
Load: hxxp://www.nasacom.ch/infos/infos.asp?db=pc&product=2016
Now my question is....
Will I need the programmer and the loader card immediately to update the CAM or will it be ready (for what it can decode, please please T*P*S don't change soon or I'll have to swing to 42e ;))?
Will I need to consider anything else (like my cheapo receiver not working with it)?
There's no way a Dragon'll update in PC Card slot (so I believe)?
My project will move on a step soon when I motorise my dish (I have to wait for grilling season to be over so I can steal the stand ).....and sometime on 2006, Dream will be Boxing my setup ;)
So, advice, steering, comments, critisim - all welcome. Maybe it all seems so alien to me even though I am completely at one with computers....until I've done it once and then I'll be laughing...?
