What DVB-S2 card with CI ?

_mrow · 2008-01-26, 19:21

Hello all!
I think topic says all, i need a DVB-S2 card with -working- CI. I read that the FireDTV / FloppyDTV are the best, but maybe someone knows a cheaper solution? Does the Technotrend S3200 work? I searched the forum and looks in the wiki. Doesnt know what card to choose.

Thanks for your help, sorry for my bad english

oh, i live in germany. what do you want for that floppydtv s2 ? Does it work good for you ?

Is 140 euro too much? It costs about 190 here so I'm not sure what it costs in Germany.

It worked great, only selling it because we moved house and I no longer have satellite access.

nearly one year ago after a looooooong misery with cards from Technotrend, Twinhan, KNC and Hauppauge i finaly decided to buy my first floppydtv.

now i have 3 of them, one is a floppy-s2 and i will never ever give them back!
sure they cost more then the others. but quality is not cheap.

they are just great. and so is the support from digital-everywhere.

my advice: spend a few bucks more to buy a floppy/firedtv and get a card which simply works.

note: you can buy them directly from their webshop
