 |  GW 863 and a season in a Strong instead of a Humax? Hi Guys, I've been tinkering (I don't like to watch  ) Since getting the season working in the slot of the Humax 5410z I thought I'd have a go at building an internal one. Finally got it going earlier and then wondered if I could get the season working in the slot of the Strong 4658x. Well I couldn't  But I could get it going with the use of my Purple 2.21a cam!! Works a treat.Now the big question. Could we use this Strong/cam combo to sucessfully keep a card updated like the Humax? I get emms with the Humax, emms with the Strong and to prove the point you get no emm requests from a dreambox connected. Food for thought??? Leroy |

Shit yeah. you can even put the bf430 minus metal case, inside the strong with just a rj45 plug out the back. We were doing that about a year and a half ago...  | |

Season interface won't work in the Strongs with the later firmwares, so the BF430 would most likely be a no go as well mate. | |

What do you call the later firmwares Dave? If I remember the box came with 1.04. Maybe I should give that a try. Leroy | |

| Premium Member | I haven't played with the Strong that much, but it's my understanding that only the latest firmwares will pass the EMM's on to the card, but these versions will not work with a season interface. The older firmwares will work with a season, but will not pass the correct EMM's on to the card, so it still won't be of any help to you updating a Greywolf server. If you find out different, please let us know. |

As I mentioned above the season works in my 4658x with a purple 2.21a cam and passes emms. Leroy | |

that at least you can get a season working with a Strong if need be to have a box that passes emms for applications like GW. Leroy | |

I do realise that. I was suggesting the cam as an option. I don't have another box to try but a season in a cam would probably work in any box. Leroy | |

| 1.10p was the old working firmware for the strongs with GW. Well the one that worked the best.. Also there was a lot of quick pushing and pulling to just get the strong going. And even then they would crash GW on yah, so no point going there for something stable. |
