[QUOTE="miroslav22, post: 504973, member: 97642"] Hi Unfortunately Sky dont produce a hardware CAM that you can use (unlike most other european satellite providers). Unfortunately they like to tie you in to their hardware and EPG which is annoying as they have had a lot of reliability issues! There are unofficial hardware CAMS (t-rex and dragon), but as far as I know they cannot yet read the new white Sky card. To use hardware CAM's, I believe you would need 2 smart cards and therefore 2 subscriptions if you wanted to view/record off more than 1 transponder at the same time. Multiroom wouldnt be an option as Sky check that both cards are in official receivers at the same location through your phone line. The only other way is a software CAM like you say. I have this working with Sky HD on my setup, but this is completely unnofficial and I had to heavily modify MediaPortals directshow filters to get it working reliably. [/QUOTE]
