    Snaps just said that HD subs were hard to get hold of. I had thougth the subs were all the same (SD/HD), the receiver being the deciding factor whether you got HD channels or not.

    I cant answer that question. I supposse if you get a normal sub and then try the card in a HD receiver that will take the card then there is no harm in trying.

    Since ive been watching most of my premiership on canal+ (Cyfra+) HD, it'll be hard for me to go back to SD football.

    I have this package and they cover all ESPN, Setanta & Sky games Live & in English too.

    They show 3-4 Live 3pms also.

    Can I use this box:
    http://www.saortv.com/shop/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=68

    To get FTA and DTT channels, but also use an al jazeera card with it to get the sports and stuff? Can I use more than one card with it to get different sports packages?

    Can you give me some more information on this package? I have been searching everywhere to try and get the best packages for football but there isn't any "magic bullet" by one provider. I can't see anywhere to get Cyfra+ HD?

    you'll be hard pushed to find one provider that shows all of our sports needs. cyfra and art/al jazeera have given me everything ive needed this season. no point buying now as rights issues are not 100% sorted yet

    There are a number of receivers that you can use with the Italian card (Spiderbox, Dreambox for example) but not all will pass on the updates so the card needs to be placed in an official Sky box once a month.

    Not sure about this, there is at least one softcam I can think of that will update entitlements for a Sky Italia card.

    I said "not all will pass on", I didn't say "none will pass on"! :D

    Well f**k me, I'm preety peeved at the minute, I got rid of Digitalb a few months ago and spent the big money on Sky Italia for the simple reason that they show far more Premiership football including the 3 Sat 3pms and Sunday and midweek matches that Sky/ESPN don't show and now they're not showing the Blackburn V Liverpool match tomorrow, its pretty disappointing as they've 16 football channels and 5 of them are'nt showing anything according to the EPG.
    Anyone know much more on this, they're normally spot on with the listings and I'm sure they hardly do a Digitalb and swap and change things at the last minute?
    In the unlikely event of anyone finding any FTA feeds tomorrow please post.

    Thanks

    If I put in Poland Canal+ comes up. I know that this is a stupid question but is Cyfra+ and Canal+ the same company?

    I just have to make sure before buying a new card.
