How can I use my Sky subscription in my DM 800 HD?

[alom5]

I used the serial number at the bottom of the box. I think there is 2 different numbers there..i think it's the 17 digit number...but try both if the first lot don't work....use the generator I attached in a previous post on this thread

as a general rule you will find that the ten numbers in the sky menu are the same as the last ten on the box
but if number on box was D123456789 then in menu it changes D to 0 and becomes 0123456789
so if you use the calculator with either number you will get the same box key

Anyway I've tried all the keys with combinations of leaving numbers off the from and different generators and still no joy

thanks for your help - should I give up now?

I don't know which calculator you are using but I think you might be getting wrong box key
try the Windows calculator
open windows calc and click on the view tab
select programmer mode
select Dec
put in your 10 numbers
then select Hex and the number it displays will be your boxkey
check if its the same as you have been trying
or if you want to PM me your 10 digit number I will PM you your boxkey

Dont give up mate, its not hard at all.
Check your PM.

Are you sure you are using the serial from the SAME original sky box the card was in?.. Ie: you cant use a sky card from one box, in another sky box. It can only be used in the 1 original sky box. Are you sure your using the serial from the correct sky box?

Making the hex is not difficult, Im sure its another problem unless you really got it wrong.

Few tips (from when I had problems)
- CCcam 2.1.4 full (worked for me)
- Remove all other Cams (MGCamd etc)..
- Make sure you are copying your CCcam.cfg (and its not failing the transfer when you think you are copying it).
- You will have to reboot your box after changing the CCcam.cfg. Do a FULL reboot (not just enigma2), to be sure.

If your still having problems. I'd suggest start from scratch. (Its what I would do)..
- Install a brand new image
- Install CCcam 2.1.4 full
- EDIT CCcam.cfg (around line 318, with your boxkey)
- Reboot your box.
- Activate CCcam.

The calculator on windows doesn't do the conversion correctly go to a Decimal to Hex converter website and then enter the box number in hex on a suitable softcam,
