Actually wait a moment... In your code, did you issue CA_RESET then immediately try to read/write data? If so, that's not going to work; resetting the CAM can take up to 5 seconds, and CA_RESET doesn't wait.. Iin my userspace code I had to add a loop checking CA_GET_SLOT_INFO until it returned CA_CI_MODULE_READY. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
