FTA only, and there are very few of those on cable. Unless you want to use your own subscription card (need pairing details & knowledge) or have access to a cable cardserver (not many about) then buying a cable based dreambox is presently pointless.

"pairing details" I take it this info was available prior to the card change some time ago, i.e. 3.5Mhz Pheonix/Glitch....10/11bx

But without these two bits of InfoRD, the process of using a DM500CBK is not possible?

I understand a subc4rd is required,but getting the two bits of data are still required for DM500 usage?

Welcome to the forum

All the info is here and across many forums. And not "pairing" in the way you describe as such.

I am intrigued, only another 2000+ posts to read...

SG ... ?

You can cherrypick And not the SG thread unless you are from there, in which case you won't need it just yet.

Its not too dificult to get the required info if you are prepared to read around and you have the proper equipment.

tip, you may need to learn some Spanish.
