Ok, now I understand what you meant with "encrypted".

Yes! With 0 it works. Thanks!

In the moment I use 2 cards. The first gets Astra and Hotbird.
The second Astra only. So with a Hotbird transmission I can't timeshift.
When I put in the 3rd card again, there is Astra on card 1 and 3, Hotbird on card 2.
No timeshift at all.
I think this limitation comes from the way vdr uses ca.conf, which was originally meant
for CAMs.
But I and other people, who posted on this list use ca.conf for assigning satellites to
cards.
It can't be done differently, can it?
For people like me it's a wish, that one day vdr would be able to take that into
account.
Am I clear enough? Do you understand what I mean?
