Common Interface
This menu gives an overview of the programs included in the transport stream (TS). Moreover the user
procures information as to whether the transport stream is encrypted and how many elementary stream
PIDs of a service are in the transport stream.
Multiple Service Decryption (also called Multi-decryption or Bulk Descrambling) is supported. Depending on
the CAM in operation up to 16 PIDs can be decoded in general. Professional CAMs are supporting up to 32
PIDs.
There are a lot of different CAMs with different hardware and software option on the market please contact
your CAM vendor for more information about the number of services the CAM can descramble. Please use
officially supported CAMs only to avoid decryption problems.
The menu item
Common Interface
provides information about the used CAM and the supported CA System
ID of the encoding system. With the CA PMT List, you can select from different initialisation methods during
the Multi-Decryption function. Some CAMs do not support all the methods.
only-add:
The CA-PMT list is activated via ‘only’ and ‘add’ commands.
first-more-last:
The CA-PMT list is activated via ‘first’, ‘more’ and ‘last’.
If you click on
No
the Descrambling Monitoring System (DMS) menu will open. Here you can select
individual elementary PIDs for decoding via the common interface. After finishing all entries the
configuration must be transferred to the device by clicking
Set.
The
Reset button
allows a targeted resetting of one CAM.
A click on
CAM MMI
gives the access to more information about CAM and Smart Card via an additional
