Hello list,

I'm trying to get my CAM working on vdr 1.3.22 and vdr 1.2.6, with only the vdr-remote-0.3.3 plugin (http://endriss.escape.bei.t-online.de/vdr) enabled. I've got a Hauppauge CI module (http://213.221.87.83/pages/products/data_ci-modul.html) connected to the second Hauppauge Nexus card (http://213.221.87.83/pages/products/data_nexus-s.html) Accoording to the Wiki (http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Supported_CAM_modules) this configuration should support all cam's. I've tried 3 different CAM's, without success. The CAM's get hot, so they've got power, but further no results. When I use the Setup menu in vdr (both versions), I can reset the CAM's, the log shows that that is done, but when I triy to access the CAM menu, vdr report "Can't acces CAM menu".

The question is : What should I see in the log and on screen when I got a working CAM ?

There's nothing that would actually indicate in the log that the CAM works (apart from the initial version message, which I assume you are getting). What you should see if the CAM works and you have a valid smart card with your subscription inserted to it, is a picture on the tv.

You mean that vdr does not support MMI menus from CAM ?

VDR does support MMI menus. Try pressing the Red button in the Setup/CICAM menu.
