Seems DVB CI stick is not targeted to end consumers. Anyway, it looks interesting, even it requires additional DVB tuner "somewhere in the pc" what means duplicated traffic (to the CI stick for descrambling and back for mpeg a/v decoding). It would be nice to see such stuff working in linux, but because of market targeting i don' t expect that. BTW, Hauppauge's WinTV-CI looked much more promissing. At least when I started reading whole thread about it here: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg28113.html Unfortunatelly, last Steve's note about not getting anything (even any answer) has disappointed me fully. And because google is quiet about any progress on it I pressume no any docu nor driver was released later on. /Honza -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
