yaya if the pictures on the sports channels are decrypting then the card is working ok. Pixellated pictures point to a reception problem at your end.

i am using an lcd tv, but all other channels work fine. Its still the same as it was. I have re-aligned the dish etc. Signal quality is 79-82% and strength is 84%, surely that should mean a good picture??? Should i attempt to move the lnb?

could be the lnb at fault and also try a run of cable straight to the receiver bypassing any motor if you have one to test ?

I really can't see that it will be dish alignment or LNB, if all of the other channels are fine, sounds much more like a dodgy card, or card/CAM/receiver incompatibilities.

That all depends on how good (sensitive) the tuner is in the receiver!

I have a humax 5400 receiver, can't even get a picture at the min as the software is way out of date and its having problems recognizing the conax cam, i think that’s the problem.

I have had the following problems with Conax CAM.
Active card in conax cam opens all Digitalb channels on the one transponder no problem. All channels on the other transponder heavily pixilated. Put the card in a Blue Zeta CAM or Trex no problems with either transponder.
Here is the strange bit, Leave the card in the zeta or Trex and insert the Conax CAM into the other slot with no card and the picture pixilates again. I have 20 brand new Conax CAMs and they all do the same.

More info - Blue zeta must be changed to a Joker CAM to open Conax.
Zeta cam in Mondeal 7500 Viaccess 2CI will not pass the stay alive command to the card and it will go off every month. Pop it in another receiver and will re-activate in minutes.

Hope this is some assistance to someone & if anyone can shed light on the Conax Cam issue that would be great.
