There is nothing special about MPEG-2 Transport Stream – it consists of 8-bit data bytes as all other data in computers we know. Actually TS output from CAM uses high order data byte on the data bus but is has to be clocked in based on another pin which should be possible by programming at sufficiently low level. The problem may be with TS input to CAM which uses pins that normally are part of address bus.

Exactly. CI changes the use of the PCMCIA pins to create MPEG-2 Transport
Stream Input and Output buses. Those do not exist in a standard PCMCIA
slot, thus it is possible to stream an MPEG-2 Transport Stream through a
PCMCIA slot...

As far as I know this is not possible due to CAM wiring being different
from PCMCIA. At least I get "voltage negotiation failed" when inserting
a a cam into my pcmcia slot.
