Hi,
I'm thinking of buying a Dreambox 500, but as a newbie I'm lost on what I will pay the money for :
1) Does the system automatically updates the TPS and opens scrambled channels? If NOT then what use is a permanent internet connection?
2) Can I use one Emu to unscramble all channels? Or must I switch the emu depending on the channels I want to watch?
3) can the system simultaneously opens Viacses, Irdeto and other scrambled channels?
4) can I watch Arabic & English channels of Showtime, ART & Orbit ON Nilesat, Arabsat and Hotbird? What setup/ emu would you suggest for that?
5) can I use the "smartcard" slot for original ART or Showtime cards?
I searched the net for answers, but for naught.
I appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance,
