Ok, first of all my apologies if I say something really stupid, I admit I dont know a bit of satellites and stuff...
I live in Portugal and I have lost my patience with the cables channels we have here, looked around and found out that Sky has (or appears to have) the type of channels I want. So I phone them to get prices and so on, and discovered that I can not subscribe to them since I am out of UK! That doesnt give me other choice than to hack it!
So, after browsing information on the net, I am now totally confused!
1) can I use a PC to unscramble (decode) the videoguard signal from sky? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction?
2) can I use a normal satellite decoder to view Sky? Or does it need to be a skybox? (are there more models?) (I read something about some CAMs, but I am not sure what they are for ) (yes, I am truly a newbie!)
3) If I need a skybox (I understand I can buy them over the net) what do I do about the card? Since Sky want sell me one, is there a way to create/hack one?
Thank you for your help, and sorry the long list of questions
