DVB-C CAM for UK NTL Cable

[Creagan]

Hi there,

 

I would like to ask if anyone tried using the "TwinhanDTV Cab-CI" DVB card with ntl cable television in the UK?

 

I am panning to use my PAID for/ LEGAL smart card and the above card to watch television, but I am not sure which CAM will work with DVBViewer.

 

I am thinking of useing the following:

 

-DVBViewer

-TwinhanDTV Cab-CI

-CAM which is campatible with DVBViewer

-PAID for NTL cable smart card

 

If anyone could confirm a compatable CAM that will work with DVBViewer, or any problems that I might run into, it would be great!

 

Thanks...

I believe that NTL use Nagravision & that your card is married to a particular decoder box. In theory a Dragon/T.Rex CAM should work with predator firmware that allows you to enter the serial number of your box into the CAM.

I bought the new T Rex 4.6 CAM and a Technotrend Budget C 1500 cable card, but when I start DVBViewer, the application reports that there is no supported hardware.

 

I looked at the supported devices list before I could the technotrend card, but is does not seem to work - do you know how to get it working with DVBViewer, or should I just bin the card.

 

I know you should install DBA drivers - how do you KNOW they are installed?

 

Thanks for your help... appreciated!

Check in Device Manager for the driver version. If it is not 4.4.10.17 then download & install the BDA drivers from the Technotrend web site http://technotrend-online.com/download/sof...2_4.4.10.17.zip

 

The best support forum for Technotrend cards can be found at http://www.dvbshop.net/forum/modules.php?name=Forums
