Hi,as my receiver has 2 cam slots is it possible to use both,perhaps one with a stealth file and the other with underworld?

most stb do not like 2 cams in at the same time its like your wife find out you have a bit on the side , so you get one cam fighting each other . some do work ok but most dont , try it and see .

like the metaphor,very funny sounds like a man of experience.

The Dragon/T-Rex cams have a known problem working with other cams, even other Dragon/T-Rex cams, but others work together.
Why would you need a second Diablo with a Stealth file?
Underworld opens everything Stealth does but with added conax channels.

HI
What I was considering was a bought cam and card with 12 months subscription in other cam.

Depends on the subscription card as you might be better with a dedicated cam, but you can use the card in the one Diablo and if you have any problems just go into the menu and change Emulators Priority back to 1 Card 2 Emu, that way it should read the card first.

Thanks for info.installed underworld110 this morning dont have any multivision channels is this correct have they been lost.

Mickha · 20-05-08, 12:14 PM

Just checked and they're working. Yune into Sci Fi France, you should see Keys Expired message, once it opens tune into any channel in the package.
Did you format your cam before loading the new underworld file?
Don't forget to adjust the configuration settings so that Emulators are on.

rainforest125 · 20-05-08, 12:49 PM

yes did all the above,always follow your advice to the letter as your the man.got all the channels but no multivision.Should I leave it on while I go out and see if it sorts itself out?

Hi not quite related, but I lost signal on these channels the other night and they would not open for me, all the other TPS channels, that have not migrated to Astra 1, were OK just the Multichannels.

Very best regards Wez
