Such devices aren't sold in Russia, where I > live, and local Satellite TV provider could not say anything, will or > will not their CAM works in such device :( The CI slot is more or less a PCMCIA slot (Astra has now CI+, which adds some kind of encryption to the mix, CI+ is not compatible with CI). To be able to use a PayTV card, you need a CAM between your PayTV card and the CI slot. If your PayTV provider supports normal CI slots, he should be able to tell you what kind of CAM you need to buy. If your provider does not support normal CI slots, and you want to use your legally paid PayTV card, there is the gray area of programmable decoder modules (there are a lot, e.g. AlphaCrypt, Diavolo/Diablo, ...). The one you need depends on the encryption of the PayTV card you have. So if your Satellite provider supports normal TVs with CI slots (not CI+ slots) (Sony/Samsung/LG/... have some TVs with CI slots), it should work in such a device too (no warranties). If you give it a try, please keep us updated if/how it works (and remember, Hans-Petter is the one to ask for support in webcamd).
