Hi.
Has anyone been able to get VDR working for encrypted channels? Whether it be digital terrestrial, cable or satellite?
I'm not wanting to do anything illegal, but I would like to know how this works. Some providers give you a smart-card, so I guess you'd need some kind of plug-in to allow validation of the 'key'. I've also had cable subscriptions where if you want another channel added, you phone the provider of your set-top-box and they enable something. How does this work? Could this be done with a DVB-C VDR setup?
Thanks
