The TT-MCE tools interface looked more promising (If you click on one of the tabs it will say "Cam inserted, please wait" but nothing else )

So where does this "insert card 2 message come from? ; is it a generic popup in windows or a message within, say the CI menu of Mytheatre??"


..What worries me is that this cam was working. Is my TT-1500 fubar?
u won't see insert card now all u should see plese wait then cam or blue zeta cam or module then click on that and u should see the boxkey

cheers

Alas I have "Cam inserted, please wait", followed by "Empty Slot" - I have also tried TT media centre with the same result.

I dont think I can carry on with the expense, especially as I now have Mediaportal running nicely with Vplug, so I have decided to cut my losses and sell up the Cam, CI, parallel programmer and Infinty USB / funcards as a job lot. Obviously Twintown has first dibs for being so helpful

Default Re: Where to buy pre-flashed CAM

Just to add my personal experience (in case anyone's interested):

TT C-1501 = couldn't get ANYTHING to recognise the CI daughter card was attached, let alone had a CAM in it. Across several installs and both Vista32 and 64. Nothing, not a sausage at any point. Ebayed the CI card.

D-E FloppyDTV = CI menus in every DVB-C program I tried either showed an empty CI, or cycled initialising/empty/initialising/empty...

Only way I found to access the CI menu on my Zeta Blues or my Icecrypt was to install the D-E BDA drivers to get a start menu option of CI Interface (then reinstalled TV Pack drivers). After this, frantic clicking in CI Interface would give me a few seconds to amend to NAG before cycling again. Managed to eventually get all my CAMs to NAG and then gave up trying to edit the boxkey and just set the cards to the standard one.
