[QUOTE="mclog, post: 103136, member: 26563"] [b]My Experiences[/b] Hi I'm using the FloppyDTV-S, with a Conax CI/CAM, and original Canal Digital subscription card (yellow card). With FTA channels such as BBC World, my zap is TV-like, less than 0.5 second. As soon as I start using the encrypted channels such as Canal+ Sport 1, etc, the zap increases to about 9 seconds. I was able to borrow a friends Canal Digital subscription card (red card), and that takes my zap speed to 4 - 6 seconds for the encrypted channels. I spoke with Canal Digital technical support, and it seems that there are differences between the cards. The yellow cards are meant to be used with specific pieces of hardware (it's called pairing), and they were surprised that I could watch the channels at all. The red cards are not paired which explains the 100% improvement in zap speed. So, if you have Canal Digital and slow zap, check the card colour, and work on getting the red one, although they are very reluctant to give them out. I'm trying today :D Would still like to get that encrypted zap speed down a couple of seconds more, but not sure what else I can try to improve that now.... :thx: to the MP team btw, it's a super piece of software :D [/QUOTE]
