[QUOTE="mrmt32, post: 785443, member: 296364"] I must have subscribed to this thread a few years ago and forgot as I just got an email informing me of new posts. The offline decoder method will definitely not work any more (for all the box models I have seen) as the ECMs are removed from the *.str file (the packets are still there but each packet is overwritten with 0xFF). I don't want to go into too much detail, but basically the card transforms the original ECMs into a new form (basically re-encrypting them so they are card specific) and saves them in the meta data files (this was true, even before the ECMs where stripped; the non-transformed ECMs where never used by the sky boxes). The transformed ECMs are sent to the card in the same way as the normal ones. That is as much detail as I can really go in to, and I don't think anyone would be very comfortable releasing any software which decrypts the recordings as it would require the inclusion of some kind of soft cam which would put it into a bit of a legal grey area (even though it requires a valid card, using them in non-official receivers isn't exactly supported to say the least). It is however definitely possible to do. [/QUOTE]
