I seem to have a serious problem, I have a Dragon Cam Rev 4.1 I'm using a Dragon Loader card, I have a spare card as well and have tried programming with both, I load the Dragon Module whilst on a FTA channel. I am using a Dynamite programmer which I have used dozens of times before, I have tried downloading 2 different and current Predator.343 files I have removed switched off the Echostar receiver, removed and refitted the Dragon Cam, read http://www.ragabbader.org/forum/showthread.php?t=4530 completely from front to back and still I can't get the receiver to decode anything! I simply cannot think of anything else to do! I have not altered any of the codes in the cam manually but didn't think that I had to do this if I was loading a recent (todays) .dra file I am at my wits end. can anybody offer some words of wisdom please?

Hi mate, there may not be a problem at all with your cam. At the moment not a lot of channels are working so Id suggest maybe surfing through the channels and see if anything opens.

can't seem to find any scrambled channels that descramble with the cam, can you point me towards one that should work? i.e. france 2 on hotbird won't descramble! Cheers!

Hi everyone. I'm having the same problem. I update the Dragon Cam with the latest firmware and it doesn't decode anything. I tried a Matrix Cam it at least it decoded some channels.
Is it just the channels disappearing or is it a fault with my Dragon Cam ?

Thanks very much for that information compass I found the channel on Astra and the one on Sirius but couldn't find a channel on Hotbird that matched the info given. I was only looking at saved channels = TPS, Multivision and all of the scrambled Spanish chanels on Astra and Hispasat. It indeed seems that these are lost at the present moment. I thought that it was the cam.Thankfully I didn't investigate further!:bangc:
Thanks once again.
