Compatibility with FRANSAT official smart card?

[albert.nadette]

Can someone confirm that he succeeded to activate a brand new fransat card with the DeltaCam?
I am asking this question before to buy a fransat card alone or if I better buy a the card together with their PCMCIA module.
Thanks.

Better to buy with official CAMs, because they could change AES or whole Overcrypt Algo one day, an then you dont have a guarantee that it will ever work in 3rd party cams again.

I tried a brand new Fransat card with official CAM in my TV (Philips, with CI-slot). It worked instantly. But this combination did not work in my saltbox (VU+). But if I change the official CAM to Deltacrypt it works. It is not a reliable way. If you buy an Aston minisat I think there might be another problem because the Fransat receiver is in the cam and you probabely have to use an extra remote. Perhaps someone can report own experiences with the Aston minisat.
