Hi, I am very interested in that, because I subscribe to a "S F R" TVBOX service that provided a (netgem) receiver very slow and does not allow the recording and backup to another media like a usb key... Recently I tested the TV channels using vdr-1.7.21 with iptv-0.4.2 without "disable_ca_updates" and "disable_eitscan" patches and it works perfectly but only with FTA channels. I saw also that updates pids automatically from udp multicast ip address. FTA channel: BFMTV:130:S=1|P=1|F=UDP|U=233.136.0.130|A=65000:I:0:2070=27:2071=@4:2078:0:4207:0:130:0 Encryptedchannel: France4:118:S=1|P=1|F=UDP|U=233.136.0.118|A=65000:I:0:2040=27:2041=fra@4,2042=eng@4:2048:5601,1851,1852,100:4204:0:118:0 I wonder if it is possible to modify the code of "SC plugin" to enable it with IPTV channels ? Because SC plugin support smartcard. "For most encrpytion systems this plugin supports original subscription smartcards (e.g. from a Phoenix/Smartmouse ISO interface connected to a serial port)" Best regards. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
