[QUOTE="2old4this, post: 8181, member: 174998"] There are two types of Euro CAM. The 1.05 CAM is flashable from a PC just as the original CAM was/is. But that was very shortlived and quickly replaced by he 1.06, which is NOT flashable externally. IE you MUST open up the CAM, desolder the TSOP flash eeprom (very tricky, since it has tiny, vulnerable pins), reflash it using a suitable TSOP-to-DIL adaptor and a generic programmer that can handle the chip-type, and then solder it back in (and reseal the CAM). A thread now runing here refers to Russian pages on the net that contain all the detail you will need. I can't say whether Alphacrypt is compatible with the different Irdeto variants you seem to be referring to as used in Australia. The reason a particular firmware may or may not be compatible with a particular variant varies. It may be that the Irdeto variant in question is using some tags on its commands that some Irdeto CAMs don not expect. Think particularly of the country-code. In principle all such things can be patched for compatibility (as indeed Betacrypt was enabled through the first Irdeto CAM patches). We would need much more specific info on the Irdeto variants you are using across there to even know where to start... 2old [/QUOTE]
