Re: [vdr] CAM questions
Why must they be on the same transponder? That was my original question in this thread and the answer was different. So even if I have CAM that can decrypt multiple channels, it cannot decrypt multiple channels from different tuners?

The transport stream input of the CAM-Interface is usually directly connected to the output of the tuner/demodulator of the card it is mounted on or connected to. So, only services in this one transport stream can be decrypted. Only on few card models this is not the case and an arbitrary transport stream can be sent from the PC memory to a CAM-Interface, through the CAM-Module, and back to the PC memory. In this case, you can take partial transport streams from several tuners, mux them together, send them through the CAM, decrypt them, etc. But even for those cards VDR does not (yet fully) support this.

Re: [vdr] CAM questions
Ralph, thanks for explanation. This is compeletely different answer from what I got 2 weeks ago. So back to my example from the first post. CI is paired with (bound to, connected to or name it as you like) a specific tuner and I cannot use Conax CAM in CI connected to WinTV-Nova-CI-S card to decrypt transport stream provided by Terratec Cinergy T (DVB-C tuner) which doesn't have CI interface.

Re: [vdr] CAM questions
Hi, I think you should be able to decrypt with that configuration. I have my card+CAM connected to CI on my Technotrend FF DVB-C card and that decrypts channels received by other DVB-C cards. Only limitation is that I can decrypt channels received by one tuner at a time. I have not tested for more than 2 channels at a time.

Because I don't see how this would be possible with this hardware. I hacked around in the firmware of the AV7110 quite a lot back when I wrote the driver and there was no way to send other data besides from the on-board demod to the card. I also do not see any signs of support for anything like this in the current driver version (just in case somebody found some possibility to do this after I stopped working on the driver). And, finally, there is no support for this in VDR besides some experimental patches for the ddbridge based cards.
