    Have heard something similar for the sky hd so gonna try with my sd subscription card for now.
    Will this not render all the latest receivers to expensive fta boxes?
    There is far more out there than just 28.2 east.

    The conversion table i used gave the hexadecimal equivalent in lowercase but have just tried on another coversion site and it gives the hex in Capitals?

    Gonna try and set up Oscam later and hopefully i will be able to view my movies and sport-Is this a lot more complicated than the CCcam install?

    well mine were all uppercase, so I would try again with CCcam first before going thru the pain of installing Oscam, when it may not be needed.

    You don't use websites for conversions, calculator on pc is fine.

    it's worth a try, hopefully your is not one of the receivers to have been hit by the new sky HD pairing method because if it is there is currently little to nothing you can do about it.

    I have both HD and SD cards and have been trying to pair the SD card if that makes any difference?

    I tried oscam and its so much more complicated to set up than cccam but to me it sounds like your card has been paired what sky stb do you have?
    It is easy to instal oscam its the config that is hard and did not seem to be worth the trouble for me just to read my C+Nordic card

    I have and older pace sky + box with Sky SD card which i am trying to get my receiver to read.
    In another room i have a new 2tb HD box with a HD subscription which i use in my lounge.

    I just want to add that i have used the sd card in my iberosat receiver when i was over in Spain two weeks ago and it worked fine so dont think its this card?(Does this make sense)

    Without a doubt the issue will be the boxkey.

    Google for Dreambox Config Creator v0.9.5 by B16MCC

    This program will ensure you have the correct boxkey as it can work it out from the serial number on the box or the serial number in the menu. I have always used the one off the box and its worked every time.

    Please bare in mind that Sky are in the middle of changing the pairing process so it may be short lived even if you do get it to work. Please also remember that if you are trying this in Spain you may not be able to pick up certain Sky channels due to you possibly not being inside the footprint for the north or south beam, dependent of you exact location and dish size. Its a dead certainty you won't pick stuff up off the UK spot beam with out a large dish.

    I will try the boxkey program.Is this new pairing process going to render these boxes pretty useless after new pairing process is up and running because if this is the case i would have probably been better off with a humax with hdd?
