Re: CI API for dvb-device

Hi,
I imagine there has to be some sort of translation between the calls of, eg, mythtv and the calls you do to your dvb-device. Or perhaps I'm seeing this wrong...I've taken a look at ci.txt, but it only concerns twinhan-based cards. I'm wondering if it can be used or adjusted for other hardware.

Greetings,Ben

Why do you need the High Level API ? The device that you have supports only an application layer interface ?
Might be helpful to go through Documentation/dvb/ci.txt
