Kebien,
I appreciate your input. I think the reason that NA forums are not to supportive is because back in the day of card programming (Dish and Bell) there were a lot of law suits and folks are scared. America loves their lawyers.
That is because none of the forums were for freeware,every forum had their hands into the cake,so,they were really afraid to get caught.And many did get caught.
But no american forum was for freeware,every american that wanted to contribute,they had to do it at happysat/DVBN,where all freeware,including all authors in this forum,were making their releases and even developed there (in private sections,but with the ultimate goal to make freeware),and now here too,since DVBN closed down.
You have any idea how many american hacked that site simply to get a hold of private information to sell it and develop fixes for their FTA businesses?.Countless
Tat's the spirit of the american forums,all of them except those private ones that were actually the ones that devloped tools and fixes for nagra 1 and 2 cards.
Of course they feared prosecution,even today,because they are essentially dirty.This include latest powervu oriented forums that sold that magic dreambox+.
****at one time I had over 30 forum sites in my bookmarks,now you can count the number on 1 hand.Most of the NA sites are long gone or just talk true fta only. """
All those forums were all in the take,without exception.
Now there is nothing else to take,naturally they have no motivation to stay up.....they all told you they were "helping you"....he he
