Hi guys, I'm thinking of getting the above box. Did any of you have any good or bad experiences with the above box? In particular, is the interface for removing ads and editing easy and quick? I want to be able to record some films and then burn them on a dvd. Any reviews would be greatly...

Hi, You need a dish pointing at the Hotbird sat, and a decoder. BE WARNED: the only Free To Air greek channels are the channels that you don't really want to watch!!! The only channel that you may want to watch is ERT SAT (http://www.ert.gr/tv/en/tvChannels.asp?ch_id=11)... To get the channels...

Thinking back, I now wish I had bought the Hauppage Nexus with the CI Module... if you can afford it, then I totally recommend you to do it!

I ended up getting the Skystar 1 CI PCI card (which is identical to the Twinhan card - I'm actually using the Twinhan DTV drivers and software). The card works almost fine with my IRDETO CAM (Greek Nova card). I'm saying "almost" because it sometimes (once a week) freezes and I have to restart...

Hey guys, Is it possible to use the TWINHAN PCI card (with CI slot) with an irdeto 2 card? Some websites say that the TWINHAN will accept Irdeto 1.06 cams; Does that mean that it will not accept the irdeto 2 cams? Are you aware of any alternative PCI cards that will accept the IRDETO 2 CAM...

Hi Odys, Where about do you live in the UK? I live in London, and the reception is great, as if you are watching a film from a DVD! It only get's messed up when it snows (it happened last winter if you remember!). You need a dish bigger than the standard Sky dish (for NOVA ~90cm diameter)...

Guys, a followup on the problem I had: Now everything is ok. I took the NOVA card and my CAMs to my local shop. My IRDEDO CAM was faulty; I exchanged it and now everything is fine!!! Apparently the NOVA card is very fussy and will only work with an official IRDETO cam. My MATRIX RELOADED CAM...

Guys, how can I update the card Matrix Reloaded without buying any extra hardware? I had a look at the the matrixcam site, but I got the impression that I should get specialised adaptors, and Smart Card writers... I have a laptop (with the standard pcmcia card slot) and a PC with all the usual...

On Saturday, I will take the box and the CAMs back to the shop where I bought them. The guy suggested that we try the card on his box to see if it works there. I will come back to you on Saturday evening with the results. I think that either the box or the card is faulty... I also called the...

The Irdeto CAM cannot see the NOVA card...

Just a note to say that I called NOVA and they activated the card again... No change, none of my CAMs work with the card... Any ideas?...

The Irdeto Cam has a P/N: 901275 X and under the bar code: 11310241129471 You may need to try it again in the Matrix reloaded, but also ring them again, as long as the CAM can see the card (shows the number), you have a fighting chance. The CAM doesn't show any number (I have attached a...

I'm not sure if I had the card in, Rolfw. Does it make a difference? I got today an IRDETO CAM card, but it's getting worse... The decoder most of the times does not initialise the cam, and when it does, as soon as I put in the card, the cam dissappears... It seems that I actually have a...

I have just reset the receiver, with all the possible combinations: with / without the CAM, with / without the card; no luck again... What can I do to check if the CAM is actually working? The only thing that I can think of right now is that the card has not been activated yet (even though I...

I tried that; no luck... I'm not very familiar with the IRDETO encryption, but I think there are two versions, and that NOVA uses IRD 2. Is there a chance that 1.04 doesn't support IRD 2?
