Hello! I'm new to satellite systems, so I would like to buy a cheap card, considering decrypting streams.

The question is about which hardware is recommended to run with VDR, that can decode encrypted traffic

Considering that not all *official* CI-modules are supported, I'll go for the assumption it is.

But from personal experience you really can't go wrong with DVB-adapters proviced by MYSTIQUE, DVBSky and/or DIGITAL DEVICES.

IMHO stay away from TBS devices, I have horrible experiences with the drivers for the TBS5980 and some other models. Although the opensource drivers are better, the cards are far from stable.

Thank you!!

Thanks in advance!

My recommendation hardware-wise would be Vuplus Duo2 or similar Linux/'Enigma' set-top box (STB). I think VDR is ported to Vuplus (and similar STBs platforms) if you want to run VDR. But the information of this seems to be in German.

This sounds very interesting, can you please give some links to good information on this, even in German? Is it rather some WIP status (you stated you "think" VDR is ported), or does it actually work?

I think comes from that google search returned something on duo2 + VDR. But discussion is in German which I don't understand and too lazy to use google translate because I nowadays run OpenVIX on Duo2.

But iff (if and only if) VDR works 100% on Duo2 platform I might switch to it.

I abandoned VDR after 11 years of running it for Duo2+OpenVix.

Sorry for the off-topic, but my google-fu is failing: where could I find instructions on how to build openvix from sources? I see they're on github, but they have several repositories and I could not find instructions, and I'd need to modify something in the enigma c++ files to support my positioner (probably I just need to compile the enigma binary, but I'm not sure yet). The various boxes running openvix (and other enigma images) seem to be very cheap and convenient (small size, low power, etc.), if they also have good tuners they could be a good replacement for my ageing vdr computer.

Yes, build instructions are hard to find. After some trial and error I am doing it like this:

git clone https://github.com/oe-alliance/build-enviroment.git cd build-enviroment make MACHINE=vuduo2 DISTRO=openvix DISTRO_TYPE=release make image

You then ("then" meaning after quite some time, depending on what kind of machine you build it) have the ipkgs in builds/openvix/vuduo2/tmp/deploy/ipk, etc.

All necessary packages for building will have to installed. OE should complain about what is missing. I think you also need to use bash as default shell for building.

You will also have to disable opera because you cannot fetch the source package without password (or somebody tell me how to ...). Comment out the lines with opera in: meta-oe-alliance/meta-oe/recipes-oe-alliance/enigma2-plugins/enigma2-oe-alliance-plugins.bb before the final make above.
