[QUOTE="Donzo Bonzo, post: 100819, member: 190697"] I have a red Viaccess cam which I bought to watch Ultra Blue around two years ago. After my 12 months subscription was up, I didn't use it anymore because I was using my patched Humax 5400Z to get all the channels I needed. Then last week, I dug the cam out and decided to use it watching BBC Prime in my breakfast room. The cam didn't work. So I tried other Viaccess cards on it and it still didn't work. Basically I thought maybe some moisture had got to it and it was ****ed. :) Anyway, this morning I was fiddling about and put the cam in my Echostar whilst it was on the scrambled mature content channel DPTV. Then a funny thing happened. An interface came up and said "downloading in progress. Do not remove cam." I was a bit worried. So I removed it. ;) Then after a cup of tea, I went back, built up some courage, and put the cam in again. The same download message came up! This time I left it in. All sorts of funny words came up like "RarII in progress. Module in preparation". It then said. "Remove cam and switch off and turn on your receiver. Re-insert cam." I did this and guess what??? It actually has DPTV on and I am not subscribing to it!! Plus, I can get BBC Prime on this cam now!! :) ;) What the heck is going on??? ;) [/QUOTE]
