[QUOTE="easysat, post: 11071, member: 175305"] I came across this information note which deals with a compulsory upgrade of the Videoguard system on a professional satellite decoder: [url]http://www.linkres.co.uk/CA%20FAQ.htm[/url] . The note hints at a card reissue in the near future. Presumably the current software changes on Digiboxes include a similar upgrade affecting the so called NDS Verifier. (That's the extra bit of CA circuitry that checks if there is an official card in the slot.) Maybe someone has found a potential loophole in the existing cards. It's interesting that Sky still haven't rolled out an upgrade for the early Amstrad boxes. I wonder what they would do if it proves impossible to upgrade the very first Digiboxes with the first generation ST processor and separate NDS ICAM chips? [/QUOTE]
