7.3 Receiving encrypted programmes

Your receiver is equipped with a “Common Interface” for the insertion of two CI modules. These can be used to receive encrypted programmes. To do this, you must first insert a CI module with a valid Smartcard in one of the two slots provi- ded for this purpose:

>Insert a CI module in one of the slots.

>Insert the Smartcard in the card slot of the CI module. Ensure that the gold-coloured chip of the Smartcard is on the upper surface, in the direction in which the card is inserted.

>If you now select an encrypted programme, the digital receiver will automatically check the slot, and will display tge programm in decoded form, provided the appropriate CI module, including a valid Smartcard, for this programme is inserted in the slot.

Special functions

Certain special functions are offered on specific programme slots, e,g, Premiere (reception only with a valid subscription !) For instance, multi-feed channels allow you to select various games in the sports category, i.e. different National League games in Germany, or you might be able to select different commentary tracks (e.g. stadium/broadcast), or in some cases different camera viewing angles may be available (e.g. Formula 1 racing).

In addition, on some channels you may be able to select the starting time of a movie you have ordered.

Please also note Point 7.15.7.2 in this regard.

7.3.1 Option channels

Some programmes provide the opportunity of using so-called option channels. This function allows you, for instance, to select different camera perspectives in the case of a sports event (Formula 1) or to switch to different sporty venues (National League football in Germany).

Where a programme provides channel options, this will be indicated by a message on screen (Fig. 7-6).
