[linux-dvb] Re: Do dvb drivers support Nagravision CA?



To offer another hint about capabilities of the CAM's :

Aston is known to have two types of CAM's, one is standard consumer
CAM and another one is so called professional CAM - this one is able
decrypt full transport stream. It is intended just for content providers
and can be obtained directly from Aston.

I do not know if Nagravision has similar arrangement in place.

Quoting Kenneth Aafløy (lists@kenneth.aafloy.net):

To offer you one more data point, I have been happily using a Nova CI
for a project, with an Aston CAM and a subscription to the Dutch
Canaal Digitaal. I had experienced a *much worse* ability of the more
expensive Nexus cards to extract signals that are weak because of the
usage of a long cable to the dish. The CAM handling driver for the
Nova works quite well.
