A beautiful safe and high-quality receiver, unfortunately it is not suitable for the smart card from cable Germany (KDG). That is, who wants to receive more than the free-TV programs (at KDG these are only the O / R) can not do anything with this receiver in conjunction with KDG. Certified are solely the NCI and PR-K, for the MF4-K there is no contract.
The rating of one star I forgive even because of the unsuitability of the receiver for me, but mainly due to the lack of reference to the Technisat homepage or here on Amazon. That would certainly not asking too much - I am guaranteed not the first to have to get rid of the power back now.
