There is something i do not understand. Here is how i though it works:
My TV provider, Casema in the netherlands, delivers digital TV via a decoder with a sort of credit card. Normally you use the remote control of this decoder to choose the tv prog to watch. Thus decoder sends only the selected digital channel to the DVB-C TV card in the computer. This was told to me by a sales person today.
I don't know the details in the Netherlands, but he was probably wrong. You don't use the original decoder if you a DVB-C card.
You should get a DVB-C card with a CI and a CAM and put the smartcard into the CAM - see http://www.linuxtv.org/vdrwiki/index.php/Common_interface.
Searching for "Casema DVB-C VDR", I also found http://groups.msn.com/CentrumVrienden/audiovideo.msnw?action=get_message&mview=0&ID_Message=166&LastModified=4675596259283298739.
That article is a bit old, perhaps you find a newer one if you use some Dutch words in your search.
