In his DreamBox he could access the CAM Menu, decrypt etc. He also lent me a TwinHAM DVB-C card, which doesn't have the same CAWrite problem with my CAM, but : 1. doesn't support CAM menus: [root@media2 ~]# lsmod | grep budget budget_ci 22660 0 budget_core 15236 1 budget_ci saa7146 22536 2 budget_ci,budget_core ttpci_eeprom 6528 1 budget_core dvb_core 79016 5 budget_ci,budget_core,dst_ca,dst,dvb_bt8xx ir_common 38020 2 budget_ci,bttv i2c_core 24897 12 budget_ci,budget_core,ttpci_eeprom,i2c_ec,dst,dvb_bt8xx,dvb_pll,tuner,bttv,i 2c_algo_bit,i2c_piix4,tveeprom [root@media2 ~]# gnutv -cammenu CAM Menus are not supported by this interface hardware 2.
