I've tried to find out and read around, but all is still a mystery to me ...
basically, if I buy a (preferably new?) Magic Cam, do I always have to load it (or something) to make it work with a legimately bought Irdeto/Viaccess subscription card?
I haven't done either yet;
If using a Magic Cam indeed needs any setup which is likely to be difficult, I will probably choose to limit my decoding options and just buy an Irdeto or Viaccess cam. (which I believe work out of the box with a valid compatible card?)
thanks for anything,
lee
ps my pixx receiver is old(ish) and I have been advised by the ex dealer that only Irdeto, Viaccess and Magic cams are supported. There is no embedded decryption.
