Cant get white sky card to be read in 800hd

[av2008]

Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me this is driving me crazy.

I followed a tutorial of using NewCs to get the white card working in the internal slot. Im using a clone DM800.

Im using Nabilo b/h IG2 with 72 bootloader. This may be causing the problem because im using older drivers.

First I tested my old sky card and it reads perfectly directly with cccam.

I then installed newcs 1.67 with cccam 2.1.2 and used the config below with my boxkey.


<newCSconfig>

Everything appears to work. I can see the card in cccam and newcs info and my entitlements are showing correctly.

The thing is all I get is a black screen and nothing else until I slip my old card back in. My white card works in the sky box so its not the card.

Any ideas?

no idea but i heard the white card has a lower voltage so putting it in other box may burn it out.

Yeh, I thought that too but that was a common problem with the new italian sky cards. The uk ones seem to handle the voltage better. This is what someone told me. I was skeptical but its been in my dm800 a while and it still works in the sky box so it cant be burned out.

Cheers for that ill try it later. The thing is on a different forum someone posted that the sky card must do a callback in the sky box to be paired properly. My sky box isnt connected to a phone line so that could be an issue?

Once I try your config ill let you know what happens, thanks again.

not heard about the call back yet but as long as your white card has been turned on the right way it should work with out a prob well untill they do the full change over then we will see what this card will do

I checked on my hd box and old panasonic box, both were down with some channels last night so it cant be an upgrade.

This thing is driving me mad, I now have a new problem. Hd Channels on a certain TP that Discovery hd and scifi hd are on seem to freeze every three seconds or so. Its not a card issue, its a tuner issue Other HD channels like History work fine. I tested on my sky dish that works perfectly with the sky hd box and I tested on another dish. There is no ber but a fluctuating signal as the breakup happens, I tried a rescan and downloaded new settings has anyone got any suggestions.
