[vdr] Conax CAM:s and multiple streams..
Hi! I'm looking for Conax CAM:s that support more than two simultaneous streams. I have a 'Dual CA Conax & Irdeto' which only supports watching two channels at a time and I need four or more. Has someone allready done some documentation on CAM:s somewhere? If not, I could document your experiences and share the information.

Cannot test now how many actually because I've switched to VDR 1.5.9 and now it only supports one stream with this CA, previously with VDR 1.4.7 it could handle at least two. Anyone know how to bypass this limitation? -- Kende ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

may be the logs in syslog from rotor plugin will help to you. For this you need

[vdr] [Wishlist] Loggingsection in the PLUGIN.html
Hi Klaus, I noticed there isn't any wird about the loggingmechanism in the plugin.html, so you have to search through the existing code in order to see how to use it. Maybe this should be added. Shure, it's not very important, but because there is a common loggingmechanism, it should receive one or two sentences :) Maybe something like (just an idea): - If the plugin should print logmessages you can use dsyslog, isyslog or esyslog. dsyslog prints the logmessage only if the loglevel of vdr is set to the level DEBUG. isyslog prints the logmessage only if the loglevel of vdr is set to the level INFO. esyslog always prints the logmessage. The output of this log is the syslog of the system vdr is running on. The logmessage can be formatted like printf. Note: The logmessage will be given as provided, the pluginname will not automatically be added, so make shure your logmessages are obvious enough. - Greetings Torsten ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr

VDR would just try to use the card wihout caring about CA stuff (if you had B00 it would not let you access multiple streams). I'm not sure how the same could be achieved with 1.5.x though. But in general the implementation in 1.5.x is now much better because you can have multiple CAM's of the same type but with different set of services on each. It's just that Conax CAMs don't respond to the standard way of asking how many streams it can decrypt simultaneosly I guess.. -- Heikki M ___ vdr mailing list vdr@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
Re: [vdr] Rotor plugin crashing with valid data in diseqc.conf
Applied the patch and started with the problem conf. Not much help. Only
mention I found of any problem was in the syslog:

The Weatherng plugin, thoug showing the same error, seems ok.
