If there are neither surprises nor changes of last hour, this next October 30 the German platform
Premiere will stop using
Nagravisión 2, codification system completely pirated to happen only to
Nagravisión 3 and
NDS Videoguard. Some informations aim that
Nagravisión 3 might be only a storm, to be only that of
Videoguard the final system.
The codification
Videoguard,
utilitzada em the United Kingdom for Sky Digital, in Italy also by
Sky, and in any other platforms
europas, has never been damaged and for the time being it seems that it is the surest codification system.
In relation to
Nagravisión 3, let's remember that so much Digitalis + as
Zon TV End was the first ones in applying it, and cut satisfactorily suddenly the piracy that they were suffering from long time ago.
Cyfrowy Polsat, one of the Polish platforms that operates in Eutelsat Hot Bird, also is leaving of
utilitzar Nagravisión 2 in some of his channels to spend them to
Nagravisión 3.
The French
TPS, other one of the platforms eternally pirated by many changes who has been suffering, also has the days told for two motives. One
eés that stop using the
TPSCrypt, an old version of the
Viaccess and another motive is that at the end of year they leave the satellites Hot Bird as a result of
laabosrción on the part of
CanalSat, and they will happen to express only in
Astra (19,2nd East) with the system
Mediaguard, not pirated (at the moment).
For his part,
Cyfra +, another Polish platform, also will change the codification into next weeks, going on also to a version of
Nagravisión 3 (that works already) and that has given so good results to those who have proved it till now. It is foreseen that
Mediaguard stops working in weeks.
Other one of the platforms easily
pirateables (for the system that it uses) but not within reach of all there is
Digi TV in the satellite
Intelsat 10-02 (1st West). This one operates in
Nagravisión 2 and 3, but due to the problems that it has with the old subscribers recipients, has not been able to leave yet the version 2. The principal problem that has this platform is that it is distributed in several countries like Romania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, and others, for what to do the change of cards to all the clients that it has with devices
receptotes so unlike is provoking many difficulties.
