Unlocking Extra Channels

hi all, just about to purchase a Humax Freesat PVR and come across something about unlocking sky chanels via a diablo cam that can be plugged in?

MOD COMMENT - RobM83 - IMAGES REMOVED - Please read forum rules on bandwidth theft.

any one got one?

how good are these?
do they work?
are they a bitch to set up?
how do you get them to work?
do you need a sky card or anything?

the sole reason i would want one of these is for Eurosport 1, 2 and HD thats the only sky channel i cant live with out as BBC dont cover World Super Bikes

cheers guys.

Re: Unlocking Extra Channels

Not sure the humax will accept a cam IF it does the only way of doing this is to have a sky subscription for these channels AND a sky box in which to put the card in intermittently

Thread closed.

Firstly, if you want Sky channels you pay Sky to receive them.

Secondly, discussion of how to obtain subscription based or otherwise chargeable content for free is strictly against forum rules. The forum rules you agreed to abide by when you signed up.

Thirdly, the forum rules are also very clear on linking to images on other webservers. I'll summarise for you though - Don't.

Any further discussion on this subject will receive an infraction.
