[QUOTE="jjnz1, post: 17655, member: 13026"] Quote from "http://www.hooktech.co.nz/whats_new.htm" .."And so for all this time they have dreamed that somewhere out there there is a CAM that will accept SKY NZ smart cards. But there isn't...... so far. You see SKY NZ uses an encryption called NDS. And until recently there hasn't been a CAM for NDS. Now there is! But wait there is a catch. The NDS CAM is manufactured in Europe and is used for some of the broadcasts over Europe. It was specifically designed for hotel situations that had SMATV systems built in, not for the average home user.

And I betcha SKY NZ won't do that for you. Why?"..... "And besides that? No one seems to know yet whether that NDS CAM from Europe will even support the SKY NZ smart card version." Is this a problem? do i need to register the serial number? Skytv NZ uses 'Videoguard' [/QUOTE]
