Sorry for the bad news. But neither with CaMode = true nor with CaMode = false
I could tune to any encrypted channel. The screen remained black, not even sound.

I had to revert to -icam and hw_sections = 1   :-(

I just want to add something I found out in the meantime ( -icam - Version):

If I start the editing-session when tuned to an encrypted channel, this
channel is even after the editing-session ok. But all other channels
are lost. For example I tried with our three Swiss channels.
  Starting edit-session while tuned to SF1 I had afterwards still SF1
  but all other Swiss channels were lost. I could even swith between
  the channels. SF1 was stable. No other Swiss channel available.

  Starting edit-sessison while tuned to SF2, I had afterwards still SF2
  but all other Swiss channels were lost. Once i had a recovery of all
  channels after about half an hour, but that happend only once and I
  tried with many edit-sessions.

My summary: No matter what channel is tuned: If it is an encrypted
channel, this very channel remains stable after the edit-session.
If not tuned to an encrypted channel, all channels are lost.

So it must be something very little but hard to trace.

Wolfgang
