[quote][i]Originally posted by Dom[/i] Been looking into this over the weekend and it all seems fairly straight forward. My only concern is if the cam provider is offline (or your net connection goes down), which case you're limited to FTA channels as the box is unable to query the provider for the encryption key(s). Would be better if the box could cache the keys locally and periodically update them; although I've yet to see any method of doing this. There's also the issue of over-subscribed providers which can causing slow channel changes and/or other issues. Currently having a look at multi-tuner softcam HTPC setup, using something like MCE, as it'd work out cheaper than the £400 dual-tuner VU box (which i believe is the only multi-tuner box available). Still though, £60-80 per year for the whole Sky lineup :cool: [quote][i]Originally posted by John[/i] Can you use your subscription in more than one box? [/quote] Most providers won't list options/prices for multiple 'subs' (c-lines? believe that is the correct term) so you need to contact them prior to purchasing.
