    Default Dream to PAce NDS sharing?

    Hello,

    is it possible to have a dreambox act as a NDS card server and use a "season" in the supplied Pace NDS box and share either from teh dream or a suitable PC card server?

    No one has pursued that because NDS cams are difficult to obtain.

    they are also married to the card are they not?

    I believe the cable boxes are married but not sure with satellite I would assume so.

    Hi Z80,

    I am not talking about needing a NDS cam. The provided Pace decoder is a NDS box so therefore the cam is already in place. My question is can you use the season card in the provided pace box and via a pc/bf unit, share the NDS card in the dreambox.

    Why....I would like a 2nd receiver for the kids but dont want to pay the extra. so use my existing fox setup but have the card in the dreambox (dm500s) and still use the box I approved box.

    Failing that then it would look like 2 dm500s units and just share that way?

    2 dm500s is the way most people go.

    can be a bit tragic if you'e got an IQ box I suppose.

    out of academic interest, I tried lincardemu but couldn't make it work. the software connected ok to the cs server on my dm500s but there were no pics on the pace

    this was what I was thinking as well. No IQ here, 100's of channels nothing to watch, nothing to record!!!!!

    thanks for your assistance
