Now I have my system installed and working I can now see that there are a lot of Romanian Channels available with very good signal on Max TV on Sirius 2 at 4.8°E.

Although they were clear for a while they are now encoded on Viaccess 2.5 which I believe has not been compromised yet?

I can get hold of a card directly from Romania (and its very cheap per month! :) ) but would I be able to use it with a Viaccess CAM, I have seen on here that some of the services require a special receiver?

If it would be possible to just add a CAM with a Max TV card which CAM would be best? I was considering a Dragon 4.1 anyway would this be suitable?

Thanks in advance.

A viaccess 2.5 card card should work without any problems in any receiver with an embedded viaccess cam.

Thx Burnham Beach but I do not have an embedded cam so I will need to buy something and was wondering if the Dragon 4.1 would be a good choice. DOes not appear that much more expensive than a Viaccess Cam and gives me a lot more!?
I have seen there have been some issues using a Dragon and my Kaon....

I know that embedded cams are ok but I can't answer your questions on CI cams.

I have the oportunity to get a hand me down Viaccess Red version 4.84 for £10. Would this be suitable for using with my Max Tv viewing card and would I have any compatability issues with my Kaon 570H?

Max TV told me to check www.viaccess.com for compatable recievers where they do mention Red Label Eurocam is this the same thing?

My friend claims it will be ok and do a lot more but I wanted to check here first....

Thanks in advance....
