Hi,
In case somebody is interested in adding support to VDR a reference to the discussion that we had earlier on this aspect.
If somebody needs to add support, applications that can be referenced at the moment are [1] ca_zap in dvb-apps [2] VLC (CVS version)
If some body needs some help on this, would be glad to help on the specifics.
Manu

Maybe you should describe in more detail where exactly the difference is with respect to how VDR's CI handling is done now. If it just means that everything VDR does in its cCiTransport* stuff is not needed for your card, I guess it shouldn't be too much trouble to handle things on the cCiSession level. What would be necessary then, though, would be some of of having the driver API tell the application which method to use (maybe that's already there and I just didn't use it ;-).
And please post to the list and don't CC: me - this only tears threads apart.

Let me support this message with some notes:
- tv is moving to scrambled (Germany), hence more people will need CI interfaced cards - Twinhan cards are cloned by many manufacturers: Technisat, Pinnacle, DigitalRise, Annubis Typhoon etc. - The cards are cheap and, provided one has a good signal strength, they have good picture quality. - As I said in another message: you need only one PCI slot. - What's a card with ci support without VDR? Nothing. Ever tried to play dvb with mplayer or xine? Or even worse, mythtv? Hey, there is after all only one system for TV on linux!
If I could code myself....
Best,
Maarten Wisse
