[QUOTE="dazed, post: 13014, member: 175393"] Hello all, I finally decided to buy a Hauppauge nexus-s and it's CI module. I thought I'd done my homework before buying it but something concerns me... I've seen a lot of reports of compatability problems between Viaccess2 cards/cams and certain receivers. I looked on the hauppauge website and they give the following compatibility list. Viaccess Tested and working Cryptoworks Tested and working Irdeto Tested and working Seca Tested and working with ab Version 1.23b Betacrypt Tested and working PowerVu NOT Tested Mediaguard NOT Tested Conax Tested and working Nagravision Tested and working with ab Version 1.23b Eurocrypt (M, S2) NOT Tested Allcam Tested and working This list doesn't mention viaccess2/irdeto2 etc. (unless it's implied). Should I be concerned about purchasing a viewing card/cam with one of these latest encryption systems or not? I guess I may not easily be able to return a Cam/Card to the supplier :( When problems occur, are they usually related to receivers with inbuilt cams (that become obsolete) or are the problems more general than that. Please forgive my questions if they seem naive, I'm still at the bottom of a steep learning curve! [/QUOTE]
