[vdr] CAM auto resetting - feature request??

[Simon Baxter]

Hello

My v 1.6.0 system has 2x Alphacrypt multi-CAMs.

Occasionally one of the CAMs seems to "crash" and if I go into Setup > CAM 
one of the CAMs changes from "Alphacrypt" to "CAM Ready" - and will no 
longer decrypt channels.  I then correspondingly get a bunch of timer 
conflicts, as 1/2 my CAM resources have vanished.  Only ever one CAM fails, 
never both.

I rectify this by selecting the CAM, and then hitting "reset" (sometimes a 
couple of times) - and it comes back.

Unless I go into the Setup > CAM menu, I'm unaware that the CAM has 
"crashed".


My request is......
Is there a way I can either
1)Automatically reset a CAM if it falls into this state

or

2)Be notified, by generating a console/kernel message, so I can know to come 
in and fix this.


Any ideas?
