Hallo, I'm trying to descramble JSTV 1 (Japanese satellite television) from Hotbird, which broadcasts both FTA programmes (which I receive correctly) and encrypted (Cryptoworks) ones, depending on the time of day. My setup includes - a 2.6.17.11 vanilla kernel, - DVB-utils from the 2006-11-09 snapshot, - a Twinhan clone card (PCI ID: 1822:0001), recognized as VP1032 / DSTMCI, - a so-called "Matrix Reborn" CAM, programmed for Cryptoworks. Here follows an excerpt from dmesg regarding the card detection: kernel: bt878_probe: card id=[0x11822],[ Twinhan VisionPlus DVB ] has DVB functions. kernel: DVB: registering new adapter (bttv0). kernel: dst_get_device_id: Recognise [DSTMCI] kernel: kernel: DST type flags : 0x1 newtuner 0x10 firmware version = 2 kernel: dst_get_mac: MAC Address=[00:08:ca:16:55:00] kernel: dst_fw_ver: Firmware Ver = 1.4 Build = 02, on 11:5, 22-2-2005 kernel: dst_card_type: Device Model=[VP1032] kernel: dst_get_vendor: Vendor=[TWINHANç¼^A] kernel: dst_ca_attach: registering DST-CA device kernel: DVB: registering frontend 0 (DST DVB-S)... When I try to tune in JSTV 1 using "zap" (is this the correct utility to use?), descrambling fails and the following output is produced: Using frontend "DST DVB-S", type DVB-S en50221_app_ai_message: Received unexpected tag 164000 Problem retrieving frontend information: Operation not supported status SCVYL | signal 3c00 | snr 168e | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK en50221_app_ai_message: Received unexpected tag 164000 <... repeats many times> <my ctrl-C> Poll error en50221_app_ai_message: Received unexpected tag 7cd16 (sometimes a 0 replaces 164000). Also note that often, when the CAM is inserted, even FTA programmes have problems (artifacts appear here and there). My questions: Are there any known issues with this DVB-S card / CAM setup? From previous posts, it would seem so. In this case, would it be better if I switched to another CAM (for example the Philips Cryptoworks module)? Or is it a fault of the DVB card? Are there any other pieces of information I can provide to build more context -- for example, more output from dmesg or some utility?
