Hi guys/gals

Would cable images work in a Nokia satellite dbox2, or are they different images altogether? If so where can I get hold of a satellite image and is there a guide on how to flash it. I can flash cable images to cable boxes but don't know if it is any different for satellite.

Many Thanks
Mark

Sly hasn't been properly hacked yet as it uses NDS encryption which is very secure. Their has been rumours that VM will move to this encryption system soon but it is an unconfirmed rumour at this moment in time. As for your question, the cable input on a cable DBox is an RF connector and on a satellite box it is a screw-type fitting.
