Since I have a DVB-C you may have different problems than I, but here's some outcommand error know-how ;-) I have learned since, from other people on the various lists that it is very common with outcommand errors if you are trying to use CI/CAM. The solution which works OK for me is what someone suggested; take away an #if 0 in the driver to get CAM debug outputs, and restart the driver until it would show up. This is what I do nowadays, since if I ever get the outcommand error, the driver just does not work correctly, I get all sorts of problem. Also for me, card works fine under windows (I can recommend dvbx as a solution while trying to find the error under linux). Unfortunately, I think the firmware is the problem, and as such I do not think there's any way for "us" to find the solution. There's also an patched driver working with technotrends firmware which supposedly works fine with many CI/CAM, but I have yet to test it. I'm sorry that I cannot give you the line with the #if 0, it was in a switch/case statement, but I'm not close to my machine now, so I don't know for sure. AI> Are there any additional diagnostics I can do? Is my hardware faulty? I normally use czap in apps/szap/ with a known fta and also a good well known encrypted channel which you should be able to tune to. Make sure you double check frequency/srate/etc etc. In my setup, last time I tried dvbsak, I never really got it to work (or maybe I did not understand its output!) well. - Micael -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
