Hey,
Sorry to bother with something potentially stupid, but I need to know
whether it is possible to successfully use a Conax CAM with the Twinhan
CAB-CI. I have not been able to get it to work with some older
drivers(czap gets a lock, but can't get anything out of it, either with
mythtv or dvbstream), my three FTA channels work. With the latest(main
and dvbalgo) ones the card does not tune anymore so no channels
whatsoever. With the ones from a couple of months ago, I needed to
remove the DST_TYPE_HAS_TS204 option from
linux/drivers/media/dvb/bt8xx/dst.c, but the new ones are structured a
bit differently and it does seem that TS188 is detected(I guess that
ought to be correct). Anyway scan doesn't get any channels an trying to
use the channels.conf it created earlier, I get "Problem retrieving
frontend information: Operation not supported" with zap and czap just
doesn't get a lock. Though the CAM is recognized as a Conax 4.00e. But
dst_test gives ioctl failed errors with p,s,g flags and doesn't see the
CAM with -a. Although from dmesg I saw the CAM being recognized with the
old drivers also(at some point), but zap definately behaved differently
and dind't make notice of the CAM.
Kernels are custom 2.6.16.2 for the older more or less functional and
2.6.17.7 for the newer drivers, Debian testing AMD64. I'm in Estonia and
the service provider is Starman and naturally I have a legal and paid
for SmartCard(which I really haven't used so far).
So I guess the first thing I need to know is what I have to do to get
the card tuning again and then move on to the CAM. If there is no
support currently, then I'm happy to help with testing ... or something.
You'll probably need more info from me, so please go ahead and ask :).
Enjoy the summer,
Raido
