[QUOTE="vark, post: 703436, member: 247431"] I too was a tad confused. Right now my father in law is holidaying in Sicily with a mission from me to get a Tivu Card ! This is what I understand. Tivusat is the equivalent of Freeview or Freesat for that matter in the UK. The channels you can currently view off Hotbird 13e eg Rai Uno will eventually be scrambled. The only way you can watch them is if you purchase a Tivusat card (currently about 80Euro inc cam). Then there are two ways to watch it. Either purchase the Tivusat card with a "Tivusat receiver" for about 100 to 150 euros or just purchase the Tivusat card which will work in many satellite receiver. To answer your questions. A Tivusat box is a Satellite Receiver box compatible with the Tivusat card this would then replace your Nokia. A Tivusat CAM is a device you plug the Tivusat card into which then in turn plugs into a Satellite receiver which has a Common Interface. In other words this would then plug into your Nokia Mediamasters CI slot. Whether its compatible or not who knows in theory it should be. Problem with Tivusat is that its so new (ie came out this year) not a lot has been tested/used/discussed about it. Best thing to do would be contact any relatives in italy and see if they know more about it, albeit in my experience most of them have Sky Italia. The best thing is to buy it in Italy and bring it back as they are selling the box and card over here for £199. So in a few weeks time my father in law will be back, with a tivusat in hand and we will hopefully get it working in his Philips DSR4005 :) [/QUOTE]
