[QUOTE="DjeC64, post: 854790, member: 55677"] Lulsam, I have got the regular Astoncrypt dual . According Aston documentation it is supposed to decode 2 channels for dual tuners setup. There is indeed 2 Pro version based on improved hardware vs. Regular CAM. the best Pro version can indeed decrypt up to 24 pid (about 12-16 channels)transponder at once. The lower priced Pro version has the same hardware than the full Pro but it is limited to decrypt only 2 channels. Just like the spec for the regular. So where is the problem: The problem may be in the max numbers of pid being decrypted at same times. The hypothesis from Digital Device is that the regular one cannot cope with the numbers of pid necessary for 2 channels on Astra. I really have some doubt about it as i am not able to find any 2 channels combinations incl those with fewer pid that will be decrypted simultaneously. Dd had to contact Aston about it but excepted a "working on it" , i do not have news from them (they even close my ticket). I will suscribe to the options of recording from my tv provider to see if it unlocks the dual decrypting from the smartcard itself. I will keep you posted. The other alternative if that does not help would be to try the low priced Pro version but dor 160€ i need to be confident it Will work. Btw: my cam version is same as Romijn with hardware version 1.000 [/QUOTE]
