Hi All
I am kicking of a project to create a HTPC using the following components
AMD Dual Core Processor
2GB Memory
1TB SataII Harddrive
TechnoTrend Premium S-2300 (DVB-C Tuner)
3.5" CI-Interface
DVBLINK for TV source
The aim is to use the HTPC to view my digital subscription TV channels.
This has proving to be slightly more difficult than expected
My Digital TV provider is UPC (Nagra3) and they pair their subscription smartcards with the provided boxes which to my understanding means that I would need to lift the Boxkey + RSA key of the provided Set Top Box (STB) and apply it to a programmable CAM in order for my HTPC to view the encrypted channels
My questions are:
Which Boxkey Programmable CAM to use
How do I get the Boxkey + RSA key information off the STB
How do I add the Boxkey + RSA key information to the CAM
A solution is available for the Dreambox 500 to work with UPC (Nagra3) subscription cards (see link (http://www.dreamboxtool.com/Other-Images/Nagra3--Zon--Cards-Ready-EagleImageV5-for-Dm500-on-2009-9-9.html)) so I basically need the same solution for my HTPC setup
I also read somewhere that the STB to Smartcard Pairing happens the first time the Smartcard is inserted to the STB, in which case it would seems that I just need to get a unused Smartcard from my digital TV provider, could someone please confirm this ?
