[QUOTE="tonguedv, post: 156570, member: 199145"] 7020S - Gemini 2.6 - Newcamd-betad6.05 Morning all! Theres alot of questions here that I've asked so hopefully this helps alot of ppl. I just tried watching Sky on my Dreambox for the first time using newcamd-betad6.05 with my sky card (official monthly subscription card) and I realised I dont need to put in the boxid to watch excellent stuff like: Challenge, Channel 4, E4, Five (just here for completeness - I cant stand channel 5 ;)), UK Gold, UK G2, Discovery, UKTV People, Paramount, Bravo. (I pretty much live for Challenge (who wants to be a millionaire, catchphrase, play your cards right, price is right) and E4 (big brother) and a bit of Only Fools and Horses on Gold now and then! Top Gear on UK people -- excellent taste in tv I'm sure you agree :P) But alas I find out that I cannot watch Sky Movies 1, or any of the "Sky Movie" channels on my dreambox unlike my sky digibox which lets me no problem - obviously! I personally don't mind doing without sky movies - but I'm wanting to learn about why/how. So my question is: what is this telling me? You dont need the boxid for pretty much all of my favourite channels...wow.. So does this mean theyre free? Are they available on a "yellow card" so I can stop paying monthly subscription fees? Also: What advantage would entering my boxid make to using my subscription card, let me watch Sky Movies perhaps? If Sky movies needs my boxid why doesnt challenge or UK Gold? (I realise boxid is irrelevant for yellow card) Could I get a yellow card aswell as continuing my subscription? Would it need activated in a sky digibox? if so would it render that digibox useless for my subscription card? I'm just baffled by this discovery, and hoping that I can go ahead and get a 1 off payment card from sky or anybody to get UK Gold and challenge and E4. I'd be happy with those 3 to be honest. I've typed a bit of a book here but I hope this helps put the 1000's of ppl who obviously read this thread - and me - a bit closer to satellite paradise!! [/QUOTE]
