Unlock SKY channels for WIN TV NOVA card??

Question

I have installed the WIN TV NOVA HD S2 card, and can recieve channels from my sky dish but i cant watch sky sports etc. I have a full subscription with sky, so i am able to watch them legally, but i would rather watch them on my computer. anyone know how to unlock these channels to view them through the card?

Thanks

P.S. I have rang sky and didnt really understand what i wanted, must be nearly closing time in dubai.

Answer 1

only if your PC satellite receiver card has inbuilt CAM  capable of decoding VideoGuard or a CAM slot where you can insert a Dragon Cam with correct firmware. I believe those PC cards only allow free to air satellite channels.

only thing you can do is either get a second box installed (extra £10 month plus equipment and installation) or a standard videocard connect by coax to the RF2 output on the sky box and a tvlink to control it.

try the below site, their satellite pc card as an optional Common Interface module for a CAM, ask them if that module is compatible with your PC card and if it will take a dragon cam. ( also sky sports requires the matched serial number from the designated sky box)
