ok heres the tut that came with the digibox tool, feel free to delete it if its not allowed

Obviously a successful tool - the web site no longer exists!

In all the years Ive been into digital satellite - Ive never seen that tool, and I remain exceedingly sceptical that it actually works. A Google search only throws up a couple of useful references to "digibox tool" - one of which is this thread. The one on the sats uk forum doesnt throw any light on the question either.

Ah - after a bit of searching finally found the Colibri site

_http://colibri.de.ms/

Nothing more of any interest on it so obviously the tool hasnt been found to be much good.

Analoguesat · 04-01-09, 11:18 PM

Not that I know of and havent got the faintest idea, although I doubt it.

It doesn't matter waht dish you have, any old dish will do, as long as it is fitted with a universal LNB and correctly aligned to 28E it will work.

If you obtain a new card from Sky, eg a Freesatfromsky card, it will need activating prior to use. This is done by phoning Sky.

By the way, the card must have a yellow house on it, the older cards don't work anymore.

Either way, you 100% DO NOT need a subscription for CH4 HD.

Hi Robbo,

Well, i've got my ski digibox now & card, put card in the digibox to get it working but when i put in my TM6900 i can't get Channel 4 HD!! I presume i put the card in the slot on the Diablo cam? Is there anything else i need to do or am i missing something completely?

Cheers

I've just tried in a card slot (didn't even know there was one!!) and it says activating smart card but still getting scrambled channel on Channel 4 HD?? Any ideas?

Cheers
