    Info Re: information stored

    what would be the difference in information between a original card and say a fun card that is actually stored on each card
    i.e

    on a ntwell origanal there would be x amount of info

    on a diy fun card there would be either a)excactly the same or


    b)totally different info

    cheers

    Info Re: information stored

    i c :thumbs :thumbs cheers for that

    but as for bog standard basic info.. if it was to be quizzed by a computer would there be a vast and i mean vast difference in data on the two different cards because they can both decode so i would presume that at least if it was quizzed it would come back as a valid card

    bear with me on this as its for knowledge and i need to get opinions on weather the two cards to all intense and purpose at a quick internal glance would look similar :thumbs :thumbs

    well fun cards / titianum cards emulate the functions of a proper card.

    the data stored on the two is very different but if working correctly then the followin will happen.

    box askes card a question -> card does it sums and sends back answer -> box acts on answer.

    so if the CC were to find things that funs / titaniums didnt emulate properly then they could in theory disable the box / card.

    No, for the pairing to take place would require the cable co to send a pairing EMM to the box/card.
