Re: [vdr] why a StartDecrypting in cDevice::Detach(cReceiver *Receiver) ?

Hi,

In many versions of vdr we can found camSlot->StartDecrypting() in the function Device::Detach(cReceiver *Receiver). I'm surprised about this StartDecrypting, I think it should be StopDecryptiong.

If someone (klaus ?) can explain this ?

When a cReceiver is detached from the device, the number of necessary CA_PMTs may change, and the StartDecrypting() call makes sure that the CAM knows about this. StopDecrypting() would stop decrypting entirely, even for the remaining cReceivers that might still be attached to the device.
