DSS ?

[Juice]

I just got an e-mail from the guy that sold me my dish. He said that a massive hit is coming and that I should power everything down, remove card and leave unit unplugged for a few days.
Skinar, ex67...have you guys heard anything about this?

Thanks

if i remember correctly,your run'n an emu,your card is never exposed to the data stream there for there is no need to shut the cpu down unless you just want to save power.

but yes,there have been updates to the h card usw 67,all other updates 33-63 have been removed,it is my opinon and that of others smarter than me that this is amied at any card(h's) with to make it simple hacked code on them will recive another black sunday type hit in the real near future and with the expation of the eeprom address it look's like if it does happen they will NOT be fixable...

hope this makes sence for you and answers your ?

Thanks ex, that does answer my question. You are correct, I am running an emu.

it is my opinon and that of others smarter than me that this is amied at any card(h's) with to make it simple hacked code on them will recive another black sunday type hit in the real near future and with the expation of the eeprom address it look's like if it does happen they will NOT be fixable...

Does that include cards running on emu's also?

at this point no,like i said it doesnt see the stream so it wont take the update,if anything you might need to unaux the card and add the update but right now it's not needed,mine are running fine even with a old .bin.

the one thing you might want to do if your run'n a old version of sle_44 is update to sle_44_3.0 anduse tweaker cor,it takes away the frezes and blackout's.

if you want,i can talk you threw it,all you need to do is take the programer that the card sits in and hook it up to your main cpu,download a couple of files and use the turboaux s/w,it does it all by it self so it's not that hard.

let me ask you a ?,is your emu run'n a clean card or a bs card,if it's a bs card it would be in a unlooper or in a dppb and then in a programer?

let me know.

ex,
I'm not sure if I'm running a clean or a BS card. How can I tell the difference (I don't know much about this stuff, I just watch it).
I don't think that I'm using an unlooper.
I've got the card in a programmer, the programmer connects to COMM1 on the pc, and it also has a telephone type connector that plugs into the receiver.
My boot-up routine is as follows:
1.turn on pc
2.count to 3 and turn on programmer
3.when pc finishes booting up, insert emulator into receiver.
4.Watch TV.

I'm not too falmiliar with the technical aspects of this kind of stuff, so can you tell me again (in laimens terms) what the
advantage of the sle_44_3.0 update is. If its not too hard to do I may give it a try.
You can e-mail me if you like (go into my profile and you'll see my address).

Thanks ex.

juice,sorry for the delayed responce,in simple terms,older versions of sle were writen before daveyboy interduced his dynamic code into the data stream,witch caused small picture frezes and or fast blackouts(1 or 2 seconds),once the hashing of h card's start again these will be more frequent,if your not having this problem now,you are more than likely using 3.0

alot of people(mostly the free tv'rs,no offence meant)are starting to use older scripts on the card and using it alone(not very wise if you ask me)because of this is why i think that the hashing did'nt start last week,d@#% is not stupid,he read's the forums to so he know's what's going on,the more people that use that method,the more he can destroy in one blow,i've typed to people till my fingers hurt that emulation is the best way to go but the guy that only cares if he's watching 595,596,206 and 100-199 only wants the fastest way to program his card and guess what,those are the one's that will lose there card's to the other side.

hope this clears a little bite up.
