Default Which Cam?

Hi Guys,

After much reading i managed to find a floppydtv which should be with me any day now on ebay.

Reading up on cams and see there are many out there like diablo lite 2.3, Dragon/T.Rex , Zeta Blue ect ect.

My question is which should i get as it seem more of a personal prefrence but hoping to find out why most people on here seem to choose the zeta blue, is it cost, performance ease of use ect.

And as for the cards im guessing i just use funcard 5's if not can someone set me straight on that.

Also i see alot about joker and it seems that this is where u reflash the cam so can someone explain that a little better to me.

Also programmers i understand a cas3+ programmer will program the cam as well as the card is this correct and if so would this be a good programmer

CAS3 Plus CAM Card Programmer on eBay (end time 27-Nov-09 20:23:57 GMT)

And just so im understanding everything can someone fill in the gaps as to what each part does.

FloppyDTV = Tuner
Cam =
Card =

Im running windows 7 HP64 if it matters

Thanks in advance

for the cam id suggest an icecrypt (blue or black) they're much more sturdy than the flimsy blue zeta and recently people have had trouble flahing the zeta with joker firmware.

either cas 2 or cas 3 will work, just make sure you get a j-card with it.

as for card a fun 4/fun 5/or mosc (even better) will do.#
