Hi all, I use the card CT3650 with the CI slot together with Mythtv (USB Card with integrated CI slot). Mostly this works fine, but every few recordings of encrypted programs fail. The logs hint that there is some problem with the CI initialization. Mythtv apparently doesn't correctly detect that the recording failed, as the recording remains marked as "Still recording" in the web-interface. The file size is 0 bytes. After such a recording fails it usually happens, that the next recording is fine again without any intervention by me. I already replaced the USB cable by another one to rule this out. Don't want to replace the card unless I am sure that it is faulty. Some data: I am using Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS uname -a: Linux ashanta 3.5.0-26-generic #42~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 11 22:19:42 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux --------------------------- Today a recording failed at 10:06 AM: Dmesg output: [Sat Jun 29 09:56:50 2013] dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully [Sat Jun 29 10:02:15 2013] dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM link initialisation failed :( [Sat Jun 29 10:56:47 2013] dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully Mythtv output: see attachment lsmod: see attachment --------------------------- Other interesting dmesg messages: [Thu Jun 27 18:39:22 2013] dvb_ca adapter 0: CAM tried to send a buffer larger than the link buffer size (49087 > 128)! ...

Anything I can do provide further data? In my opinion it would be interesting to discover such situations and automatically retry without the client programs (as mythtv) noticing it. thanks, Martin
