Tiff - what model of sky box? (not interested in a sky+ as it needs a subscription to use the hdd recorder function)

hopefully jonzy will still have his card dont forget the pp3 battery trick for ppv movies, as these are tied to the card not the box !!!

You don't even need to use a battery, i've done it using the resistance with my fingers
