Viaccess2 card - how to use in Dreambox?

Supercell · 12-11-2008 07:46PM #1

I have a Viaaccess 2 card for some quality entertainment on Hotbird .
Problem is it doesn't seem to work in with ccam, anyone know which cam supports Viaccess2 cards? (DM7020 running Gemini).

I think we better just check

Is that the official paid for card ?

Try Newcamd it should be fine.

If you have a Viaccess cam it will fit in the Common Interface slot, if the 7020 has one.

Yeah Its a legit card.
Tried Newcamd but no go.
It works in my Dragon in the CI slot but wished i didn't have to use that as the DM7020 doesn't seem to like having the Dragon in there as well as my Sky Card in the card slot. The picture jumps every now and again when watching a Sky channel which is irritating when the Dragon is in the CI slot.

I do have auto-cam enabled so it does switch from CI to ccam at the relevant channels but that doesn't resolve the picture jumping issue.

I suppose I could load a newer version of Gemini but don't think that will resolve as I tried the Dragon in there in the past and the same thing happened (Dragon at the time gave me some "added features") on earlier Gemini versions.
Still i can live with the current solution. Its funny, ccam works with several stations that the card receives by not all which means it should be doable. Maybe I'll try a few different ccam versions.

Maybe gbox as a last resort? version 2.1b perhaps.
