Hello Derk, Thanks for the interesting information. I've looked at the specification. It's very comprehensive concerning the implementation of CI, but does not contain anything about the USB2CI device itself. Also, this thing is complicated. I have no idea how to reverse engineer the BDA driver. I have no experience with reverse engineering nor the technologies used here. If nobody wants to work on this I might give it a shot, but without specs I doubt I'll get very far.
