[vdr] Re: CAM Read Error

["Adrian Carpenter" <adrian.carpenter@btinternet.com>]

Is your CI interface a PCI style or 3.5" drive bay style?

I can't even get the driver to start with the non LL firmware - it just
crashes if I have a CAM inserted into the CI - let alone waiting 10 seconds
to start VDR!
