Hey Gavin, I saw your post re encrypted Freeview channels. I have an Avermedia 771 DVB-T card under Fedora. Is a 'CAM' something I can plug in in addition to the AverMedia ? Or does it require a 'ACM' enabled DVB card in the first place ? Thanks.

Hi :) Yep they're using MediaGuard 7.6 (more popularly known as "SECA 2") and you can either use their own CAM for ?40, or any other SECA 2-compatible CAM. I haven't personally used one with Linux but there's zero reason why it shouldn't work. It's ?7.99 a month, but just be aware that you only get 4 channels extra at any one time - they share time slots so e.g. you won't get any cartoons after 6pm etc. :) Cheers, Gavin. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb _____________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for viruses by the uuNet Internet Managed Scanning Service - powered by MessageLabs. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
