I am new here and have a question regarding equipment for viewing and recording terrestrial digital broadcasts (DVBT and DVBT2):
Does the Miraclebox and GigaBlue systems support smartcard usage?
In Sweden where I live the channles sent as freeview are only a handful out of 50+ channels on DVBT.
The rest require a subscription with a smartcard that is inserted into a CI reader in the receiver/recorder.
So if I buy one of these systems, can I view/record also coded channels I subscribe to (do they have slots for the smartcards)?
Furthermore, assuming that the answer is YES:
When recording a coded channel, is the signal decoded onto the disk or is the smartcard needed also when viewing the program?
I would like to archive certain programs and be able to view them for a long time after recording, when the coding key may well have changed or my subscription expired.
So decryption onto the disk file is required.
Do these systems work that way?
Grateful for any insight into this.
