What digibox tool?

lambo · 04-01-09, 01:46 PM

its a program i got from another site which enables you to connect to the box via jtag, you can then read and write to the box, change firmware ect ect

You cant do anything useful with a Sky digibox - firmware for them is only available via over the air download.

Hi guys, just a quick question, if i where to get hold of a sky digibox with a sky card and used the skycard (without any subscription) in my TM6900 HD super would i be able to get Channel 4 HD along with the freeview channels and just use the digibox to keep the card alive?

Thanks.

Cant see how you are going to change a boxkey as AFAIK Sky digiboxes dont have them as such - you can change the box serial number using the aforementioned surface mount flash equipment.

But go ahead and try it - the worst that is going to happen is that you wreck the digibox.
