Default Please need advise with CAMs

Hi,
I was told that whenever one uses two smartcards with two CAMs in a receiver that has two CI slots, there are some problems with the quality. Not sure I understood it well, so I would like to ask if anybody here has two working CAMs inserted at the same time? Does it work all right?

I was told that 1 CAM that takes two smartcards (like Alfacrypt TC) is a much better solution. True?

thanks

I used to have problems, using a Diablo CAM and a Conax CAM. Invariably the Conax didn't work until the Diablo was removed. But not vice versa, weird.
Might have been a issue with the box though.
