[linux-dvb] Re: original firmware vs. CIM modules

Henning,

I've done some more experimentation. Here is a modified patch, which worked 
for me with vdr-0.98:

Also, in the channels.conf file, you must ensure that the 'Ca' field 
(2nd-to-last) is set to '1' and that the 'Pnr' field (the last one) has a 
valid value in it, like this:

CBlauw:12515:h:0:22000:161:84:0:1:4006
