Hi folks,
I have recently purchased a Strong 6410 TNTSAT receiver with a TNTSAT card. Predictably the Strong 6410 is a load of junk, churning out poor quality pictures and can only be used to tune to Astra 1, but of course clears the SD TNTSAT channels, so I know my TNTSAT card works.
I have a Technomate TM-6800 Super that can now read my new white Irish Sly card and I have a Diablo 2.3 ...
I thought someone might ask that!
The card is inserted with the chip facing upwards and towards the back of the CAM, in the same way I had my FTV yellow house card inserted.
Success!
I reverted to U/W 1.79 and now I can clear the SD and HD TNTSAT channels! There must be a problem with U/W 1.81.
Thanks to everyone for your help.
Are you using the cam for anything else or just for the card?
You could try Horizon 101, this is designed to be used in the Diablo cam for just reading cards, it does not contain the emulator software.
I realise this might sound basic but have you got the card inserted the correct way round?
In the Diablo Cam you insert the card with the chip facing upwards, whereas in most receivers the card is inserted with the chip facing down.
Hi,
I've just ordered a Diabli 2.3 Light and a Cas 3 programmer on the strength of these posts!!
I bought a Strong 6420 a couple of weeks ago with 30 months still on the card (cost me CHF 100!) And yes it's a pile of cr**! Not only that but having an extra box and an extra remote is too much for my poor wife. Imagine my joy when I discovered that the Diablo with my Clarke-Tech HD 5000 ...
Now I'm confused. Crusty Burke said he needed u/w 1.79 to get his TNTSAT card working, So I'll need to to the same. Will I then need to configure the CAM on my CT 5000?

No, once you load an underworld file the cam is ready for a card, if you want to view Digi TV, 1W, and Canal Digitaal, 19E, then you have to turn Emulators on.
You might just want to load Horizon 101 then as this turns the cam into just a card reader.
Of course if you ever want to use it to view other channels you can always format the cam and load the latest Underworld file.
Check the configuration settings, if you're just using the cam as a card reader, and for nothing else, like opening Digi TV 1 West, then you are probably better off using the Horizon file. Go into the Cams menu, using your receivers menu options, then Horizon 104, or Underworld xxx, whichever you have loaded, and enter the configuration folder. Check the Caids file is correct, try different options, and the other settings, as you have...
Hi Pywell, I watched that rugby game too. Impressive picture quality indeed. Reverting the Diablo CAM to something as old as UW129 to try and restore "iCord friendliness" wouldn't help, because TNT SAT descrambling would get lost in the process (it was introduced around UW170). Right now I am happy with the "Diablo+Horizon104 on Plasma internal receiver" combination. It allows me to watch TNT SAT live,...
OK, thanks. Just to read my TNTSAT card. Nothing illegal or dodgy, after I'm living in Switzerland where "everything's" squeaky clean. :-D Cheers P
Success! I reverted to U/W 1.79 and now I can clear the SD and HD TNTSAT channels! There must be a problem with U/W 1.81. Thanks to everyone for your help.
thanks for the advice offered, I ordered a Diablo Cam and am now viewing the TNT SD and HD channels via my TNT sat card in a Humax HDCI 2000, as opposed to the Strong SRT 6410 box that was designed for the card. The only channel I am have been unable tune into is M6 HD, the tuning will not find it. I downloaded underworld v 1.79 as suggested. thanks to all concerned. regards, Tim
