Thought I'd try a new thread with this problem as I'm getting no where - and not sure what else to try.

I've just added a Irdeto CAM to my TT-1500 Budget DVB-C card and I'm getting write errors with VDR and with gnutv:

[root@media1 gnutv]# dmesg | grep DVB DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget-C-CI PCI). DVB: registering frontend 0 (ST STV0297 DVB-C)... dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully dvb_ca adapter 0: DVB CAM detected and initialised successfully

[root@media1 gnutv]# ./gnutv -cammenu en50221_tl_poll: CAWrite failed en50221_stdcam_llci_poll: Error reported by stack:-2

and

I'm running the latest hg v4l-dvb.

Can anyone suggest anything? Does this look like faulty hardware??? It does it in 2 different machines.

It is indeed not flaky hardware as i wrote earlier. -2 is timeout. It is due to a bug in debiread/write
