My setup, where the cable operator was using only irdeto, was working
good. Then the cable operator merged with another, and now the
networks are
being merged. As a result, the encryption has moved from irdeto only
to
simulcyrpt with Irdeto and Nagra.
Current status:
- when i put the CA card in a STB, it works
- when trying to record an encrypted channel from PC, it no longer
works.
Recording system has 3 tuners. All equal, all with same permissions on
the
smartcard. On cards 0 and 2 does not work, but card 1 does work, on
all
channels tested.
Does it mean that descrambling is not working for you? If so,
how do you manage descrambling? By CI-CAM module
or by some "softcam" like oscam?
Or do you record ENCRYPTED stream and decrypt the recordings
later on?
Each tuner has its own legal CI-CAM module. And yes, except for the
second
tuner descrambling no longer works
I'm not much familiar with MythTV, so I'm guessing from the mux setup
changes,
but did you check to descramble the same channel on different tuners?
To eliminate
the particular change inside one service only.
Of course there can be also software issue in CI-CAM module itself
(fail in parsing
PMT CA descriptors etc).
TBH, I think it must be application layer issue, not kernel one.
See above:
Recording system has 3 tuners. All equal, all with same permissions on
the
smartcard. On cards 0 and 2 does not work, but card 1 does work, on all
channels tested.
additional finfo: i tested the same channel(s) on all 3 tuners. For now i
have re-configured mythtv to use only the second tuner for encrypted
channels.
This does reduce scheduling flexibility though.
Would to understand what makes the difference, so i can ask the right
questions to MythTV developers.
As the decryption does work with 1 tuner, i see 2 options:
- depending on tuner id the default CA descriptor used is different, and
this selection is not expoerted on API level (kernel issue)
- application needs to select which CA to use (and currently does not do
this)
It should be the latter one. I'm also having Ziggo for provider, but
always used FFdecsawrapper/Oscam for decryption (also legal in The
Netherlands, providing you have a paid subscription)
ECM CA system id's 0x604 or 0x602 (depending on your region) gets you
Irdeto, while ECM CA system id's 0x1850 or 0x1801 get you Nagra.
Correctly configured FFdecsa/Oscam can deal with it, MythTV probably
cannot.

That's a snapshot from today, monitored from Groningen.
Tycho,
thanks. looking at http://www.dtvmonitor.com/nl/ziggo-limburg the CA id for
Iredeto are same in Limburg as in Groningen.
And yes, my CAM's are for Irdeto and do not support Nagra. To my knowledge
no valid Nagra CAM do exist for DVB-C
I'm a bit fossil regarding current status of CA in DVB but anyway I can say
I know that some years ago existed CI-CAM modules for Nagra, it was
in time of so-called Nagra2 introduction on Hispasat ;)
Dunno how is the current situation.
An second - it has no difference if it is for sattelite or cable variant
of DVB. The CI-CAM standard is the same. The only problem
can be if support for particular provider is "baked" inside (meaning
only particular auth data are inserted).
/Honza
Thanks for the input Honza, but where we live, we are forced to use
Irdeto. Moreover, such a Nagra CAM would not eliminate the supposed
inability of MythTV to point (while tuning&locking) to the right CA
descriptor in a reliable way.
Tycho
