Which provider is it ?.. Some providers even if they do descryption at Program level, the have all the descriptors at Stream level . TPS is known for that . In this case the descriptors from the Stream level have to be moved to Program level .. This thing i have not implemented yet ..

To check whether ca_zap is sending the messages okay, you can temporarily disable the call to write_to_Slot() to disable writes to the MCU. The relevant debugstring printed out to the console should be a valid CA_PMT object.. Just try it out , try to get as much as information from the stream as well as verbosed information. The only wasy we can check for bugs is comparing both of these .. Manu
