lost channels

[kevstar28]

I have had my box for a few years now without any problems.
Untill I noticed a burn mark on my sky card. I orded a new one from sky and received it a few days after.
When I put the new card in, I get no channels but fta.
The box key is the same.
I have got a vu duo2 running cccam.
Any ideas please as im without tv

As it's a brand new card it may need pairing with a official receiver but thats hit and miss due to sky's newer pairing method, I cant really go into any more detail as i'm not that familiar with it my self, hopefully some one else could help though.

I have double checked with the orginal box to see if it needs pairing and I get all the channels fine on it.

If you insert card it gets paired automatically. Should have kept card outside of box. Channels will clear whilst in box not when outside. Well documented now.

So leave the card in the orginal box then? How long for?

For ever, since you paired it by inserting it in the original box, you can no longer use it in the vu duo 2

I did the same with my multiroom box and it works though :/

Your lucky don't do it again. What box is it out of curiosity?

Apparently you are OK with a SD box, Thomson HD and the Single Tuner HD box.
