Card reader only for S*y for MCE project

[craigbeat]

I'm sorry if this has been answered before, but I find it hard to search the forums because of the censorship on specific words like S*y.

Basically, I have just set up a MCE PC in the living room, and would like to ditch my S*y box. I know that it's possible to use your original card in a T.rex or Dragon plugged into a TT DVB-s card, but this isn't really an option for me as I have a small form factor case. I have seen software CAMs (and have downloaded some) that say they can work off of a Card Reader only.

My question is this- what card reader do I need for UK S*y? I have seen POS ones (for credit cards) like this: http://www.cardpos-online.com/index....T&productid=54
Is that all I need?
Also, do softams work for any DVBs card?

Any help or insight would be great! Thanks!

as far as i know mce's built-in software does not have support for anykind of card reader or softcam. so you need to use other program like progdvb, dvbdream etc for tv watching. and if that kind of software supports your dvb card it will work with softcam aswell. as for you card reader, i don't know, download newcs and try. might need some fideling to get it to work thou..
