I think that Analoguesat may be correct. I can't find anyone who has actually tried the CI+ card in this unit. The question isn't about the type of television. It's whether this FranSat CI+ card will work in a Humax Foxsat HDR box connected to a television (not one specifically with a sat...

@harrybadger, I suspect you may be correct. I can't find anyone who's actually used this Fransat CI+ card in the Foxsat HDR. I have, however, found at least one person who used that card in a different receiver (not a television), and I have seen other people reporting that this card works in...

Ok I now have the Humax Foxsat HDR. Looks very nice. To get it to receive Fransat on Eutelsat 5° West, it seems that I need some sort of decoder card. This is the card and adaptor here: http://www.tvcorner.com/product_info.php/products_id/949 Are all of these things standard? It says it...

I have a house in the South of France. I want to set up a pair of satellite antennas, one to capture the French free-to-air channels on Fransat Eutalsat 5W and a second dish to capture the UK free-to-air/Freesat channels. I was thinking of purchasing a 1000S from Freesat and then, I understand...
