After speaking to a supplier, they are very convinced that they will have HD back again by end of next month at a max. Now of course this could be full on standard salesman talk, but could be very true. All in all, SD coverage is fine at the moment and long may it continue, cant moan about not having HD in the circumstances its obtained.

This what they said when cable went to N3

Do you know your exactly right :-). I have a short memory.

FYI, I posed the issue on a chinese forum and here was the response

'The actual issue is due to over-encryption of the stream that is managed inside the BCM chip or ST chip, etc. Depending of the CPU of the box you use. These "new", now "old" chips can have a specific microcode loaded inside the CPU that does that job of overencrypting/descrambling the stream.

SKY encryption is starting to use this for HD streams. As wrote above, SKY IT HD encryption has been broken/cracked and is available on professional CS servers.'

When cable went to N3 it was the end of the game for the hobbyist. The Kryptviews and Starviews took over. If what is quoted is to believed above it would seem that satellite sharing will only be available to the big servers.

To be honest I'm not terribly pushed. I have Irish channels on terrestrial, bbc and ITV channels on satellite, films and series on tsmedia (watch what I want when I want). The sports channels may be an issue as the sly streams will no longer work as they were based on being able to decrypt the channel and upload the descrypted stream to the internet. That said TSmedia has a lot of other IPTV sports streams so if I'm going thru withdrawal I'm sure I can find what I need somewhere .

Overall I think most folks have seen this coming for some time now and have had provisions in place. Personally I think it would be such a laugh if all Sky has done is made the pay-servers bigger by their actions. Wow, would they be sickened :-)

That makes no sense. There are many box suppliers very nervous at the moment. If there was a fix they would have it out in the public domain pronto. These guys will pay big bucks to oscam/cccam etc developers to supply a solution and keep shipments of these boxes ticking over
