Hi Johs, Please provide a kernel log when you have enabled AVC debugging (cat -1 > /sys/module/firedtv/parameters/debug) and I will take a look at it for you. Please split the log in two or indicate where you do the second tuning. Regards, Henrik > Hi, > > I'm having trouble using the firedtv driver to watch scrambled > channels using a ca-module.
