@naffats Have you checked the obvious things - type of cable you are using (this should be standard RS232), OS in your computer (98SE preferred), correct COM port setting, finally is your receiver connected to the LNB and is it tuned into the encrypted channel?

Yes, radiotech - both multicrypt cams will do the job. You need to be careful when selecting receiver/ CAM combination as not all of them marry well together. Regards, Nickolai

Jimbo, In a nutshell, I agree. Specifically on the support site. I feel that the lost court case vs SCM at the time signalled the decline of MM, as it had to go "underground". I am almost thinking of getting the Ice cam myself :rolleyes: Just to clarify, there is currently no Conax access...

Meldrew, Xamuh 6 in 1 files contain both flash (current - Mickey v. 4.40) called Fun_6in1_AT90s8515_V4.40.hex and external EEPROM called Fun_6in1+_24c64_receiver1_receiver2_ddmm.hex. One does not need internal eeprom for 6 in 1. I guess, there is no real difference, unless the "file guy" does...

Here is the latest on this subject... "Since the midday, 8th of July the pirate viewing of erotic Free-X TV channel using DreamBox, Mediasat terminals, SkyStar-1 PC DVB card and 5in1 card for Humax IRCI or Magic CAMs is not available..." There is no current working solution for the MM.

Meldrew, the right files are: - either single encryption files (AU available for N*gra, Ird*to, Via*) - well known 6-in-1 files from reputable "File guys", see for example Phill's files forum. Make sure you have the right cards, programmer etc and you use the latest release of the file. This...

I personally use Philips Pronto RU940 (£150) with AD3600, which is on the expensive side, but one can get very cheap universal learning RCUs these days. Richer Sounds have an excellent deal on One for All Mosaic RCU at £59 (RRP £249). This has very similar functionality to Pronto and was highly...

Can't help much either, sorry. You must be right - the appropriate Nokia firmware is a key to success here, even though, may be not total success. Lef data site (see info on every CAM in existance) recommends Dr. Overflow's DVB 2.00.0 Beta08 Magic or Dr. Overflow's DVB 1.82.00 Noonem13h...

Sorry I missed your mentioning of the motorised setup (I must have been blind...) The multi pro 2000 will program the funcards. All Funcards are based around an ATmel 90S8515 processor chip and differ mainly in size of so called external EEPROM, that ranging from 64k to 1024k. If you would like...

Well, by the sound of it you have the Funcard 2, which should do 6 in 1 coding just fine. The fact that it decodes Absat is encouraging. Do you have a fixed dish, or a motorised setup? If you have a motor I would suggest trying satellites different from HotBird 13E, you would see more on Astra...

You will have no problems with a genuine MM v.1.01 or v1.02, I know this from my own experience. I have no knowledge about compatibility of v.1.03 or v.1.04. Clearly there are differences in AD3000 hardware and software, etc and also an element of luck ;). Have a look at this SatNerds thread...

Reliable sources indicate that all PentaCrypt versions above 1.11 are "fakes", i.e. do not have additional functionality compared to the latest "official" release. There are Pentas 1.15, 1.20 and apparently 2.0. :confused: Well, the general advice still stands - if you have a genuine CAM and...

Hi, wisebird Yes the magic cam needs a card. It can work with official subsrciption cards, single encryption cards or multiple encryption cards (4-in-1, 5-in-1, 6-in-1). The best site for beginners from my POW are Duwgati's info pages. Allcam is a similar thing to MM, however based on the...

Looks like there were no major cockups, ccc. So far so good...

Russians have many unique abilities. :) I bet you all are not well aware that Russian men are proficient in a unique swearing language called "mat" . This is a very sophisticated combination of swearwords measured in "storeys". As per Rolf's remark, the level of sophistication indeed grows...
