The condition was that they were the same and repeated, and such common descriptors can be moved to program level. In this particular case decryption at stream level failed. In fact it was Marc who suggested this (i think ..) People whom i can refer to on this discussion, Marc, Dominique, Johannes, Frederick and myself. It was a while back though. Attached is a reference of the discussion we had on the same with Marc.. ------------------------------------------------------------- Hello Dominique, what did u change to manage to descramble ..? what was the trick ? if all the ca_desc at es_stream_level are identical, you can put them on program_level. The result will be the same, but this will allow to reduce the size of the ca_pmt. If I remember correctly, you are limited to a size of 256 bytes... regards Marc P.S: I will be again on holidays next week.... may be I will have received some good new will I will be back..

In fact stream level decryption according to TPS wasn't probably stream level decryption but only program level decryption. I might be wrong here though, but that was the only thing that got it to descramble. This was after a general discussion between a lot of others as well. Regards, Manu
