== Introduction ==
 
  
In the Netherlands there is currently one system left for analog broadcast receiving. This is by means of using the cable, which is provided by the cable provider in the region where one is living.The old fashioned analog antenna system is no longer available, so far antenna reception only a digital solution can be used. Satellite is also available in the Netherlands.

;Digital
 
 
 
UPC has multiple version of their so-called 'mediabox'. The most common version is the one with standard (SCART) video output, as any regular television set can handle. This box in fact is a relabled device from the Thomson brand.
 
 
 
Currently UPC has a test roll-out of a newer mediabox, which has a HDMI output instead of SCART. This box is a relabled Philips brand.
 
 
 
The UPC mediabox DOES NOT use a smart-card (for all known versions). During installation the box is registered at the UPC servers.
 
More info about UPC digital can be found on http://www.digitalekabeltelevisie.nl/waar/upc.shtml
 
 
 
 
 
'''Encryption'''
 
 
 
UPC uses Nagravision 2 encryption in combination with their own proprietary checksum based on serial number box (mac address), number smartcard.
 
This additional 'security' layer is also probably the reason why you can have only one box per household.
 
The box also seem to have an integrated cable modem. So on IP level there is something like a handshake.
 
In the past the base package was send Free to Air (FTA) and could be picked up with any standard DVB-C card (without encryption)
 
 
 
 
 
So far I do not have any experience with working PCI DVB-C cards, but during my research for information I found the following link: http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Conditional_Access_Module which states the 'MagicModule' CAM module should be able to handle nagravision encryption. Maybe this CAM module in combination with a PCI DVB-C card can provide a successful setup??? --[[User:Michel|Michel]] 21:00, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

== Zesko Holding ==
 
 
 
Zesko Holding is the temporary working name of the company that was formed after the merger of Casema, @Home and MultiKabel. These cable companies will continue to use their own brand names during the consolidations phase. They are already working together to harmonize pricing and product offerings and they are also working to combine their TV packages into one uniform platform.

This provider uses a Samsung box but DOES NOT use a smartcard. The box can be operated without a smartcard, but provides additional channels if a smartcard is inserted.
 
 
 
[[Image:irdeto.gif]] CAIw uses Irdeto2 encryption, which is handled by the Samsung box. Any computer DVB-C card which has an Irdeto 2 compatible decoder may work. MythTV works flawlessly with the Cinergy 1200 DVB-C.

The electronic program guide (EPG), allows you to see what is currently being shown on the channels you receive. The source of the EPG is country specific.
 
[[Image:netherlands.png]]Logos are provided as square images, which makes them suitable for use with MythTV. To use these logos,
 
download the logos to your mythtv backend box (in a seperate directory of course!), start <code>mythtv-setup</code> and go to the channel editor.
 
Fill in the filenames for the channels you have a logo for.
 
 
 
There is another page on this Wiki which handles channel logos: [[Channel_icons|Channel icons]].
 
 
 
On the following pages you find logos for Dutch television:
