Maybe this is also interesting for you
I will see if I find some more useful stuff

Edit:
Will provide in a view minutes one more which is related to the cam...

Edit2:
The DvrApi.dll uses some functions of the DvrStreamSource.dll... here we go =)

Re: AW: Can someone help to create a CI Menu for the Terratec Cinergy C HD + CI?

sure it is =) And I really like to understand what is going on

I will do everything I can to help you in any way If you need more Terratec files or something let me know =) We will get it or better, you will get it^^

Edit:
I just can't understand why they don't open their APIs for developers... It is good for a company if a lot of programs support their hardware...

Yeah, I don't really understand either, but I'm sure there are reasons sometimes. Perhaps they want to encourage their customers to use their own software. That way if things go wrong they can provide better support because they know all about their software...

Edit2:
I have an Alphacrypt Classic Cam... Is it important what I have selected by cam type in the Tv Server config? I have selected "default"... just for your information

Stick with "default". The only other option is Astoncrypt - that is because those CAMs require the PMT to be slightly modified. Other CAMs don't require special treatment at this stage...

I also can disassemble the driver... but I don't know if it is useful for you... oO

Hehe, their own software isn't the best one xDD But maybe you're right^^

Hi again FreakyJ

That first trial didn't go to well - the results I got back seem to be garbage again
I think the reason is that the DvrCommonInterface.dll depends on other DLLs. Can you please copy the mfc90u.dll and msvcr90.dll from wherever you got the DvrCommonInterface.dll into the TV Server install folder and try again...

I'm not sure how useful it would be to disassemble the driver. I also have IDA Pro, but unless you have the PDB for the driver you usually get poor results. In fact, I'm quite surprised about how good your results are for the DLLs you've supplied so far. DvrApi doesn't look that useful and DvrStreamSource only has the same functions from DvrCommonInterface. We're not missing anything right now that we know of...

Regarding the driver though, if you *do* have a PDB then it may be useful to disassemble. Might tell me what I'm doing wrong with the PID filter and reset. I've already disassembled a number of drivers for my old Twinhan OEM card but the results haven't been helpful...

doesn't look better, but I will try something, just give me a moment

I had to download the dll's you mentioned from the Internet, I couldn't find it on the system right now....

I copied most of the dll's from the Terratec Folder to the Tv Server folder... but no luck >_>

here are all imports of tve DvrCommonInterface.dll
In the rar's attached above I just included the imports, here are the exports, sorry about that...

The decompiled driver is also attached

Edit:

I'm not sure how useful it would be to disassemble the driver. I also have IDA Pro, but unless you have the PDB for the driver you usually get poor results. In fact, I'm quite surprised about how good your results are for the DLLs you've supplied so far.

Heheh Ida Pro is a very cool tool, I really like it The dll's have debug infos... and IDA wanted to download some stuff from micrsosoft server.... could this be the reason? So if you need files to disassemble I will send it to you

FreakyJ,

I'm puzzled - I don't understand why the global initialisation would return 64 (0x40, character '@'). This is why it is so important to have help from Terratec. At the moment all I can really do is look at the code that IDA pro generates. Things like...

LOBYTE(v0) = (**(int (__thiscall ***)(_DWORD, _DWORD))dword_1001DFB0[0])(dword_1001DFB0[0], 1);

...are difficult to understand!
I'm really off to bed now. So much for making progress

Yes, it is hard to understand... and I don't get a glue, too.

hehe, do that^^

Edit:
I found the dll location:
Debugger: loaded C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc90.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.4974_none_50940634bcb759cb\msvcr90.dll

Edit2:

I started Terratec Home Cinema in the IDA Debugger, but I don't really know how to get useful information on this way.. sorry about that
But maybe this helps (is not from the Cinergy, it is from the T5 )

DvrCommonInterface:00A21190 dvrcommoninterface_TTDvrCommonInterfaceGlobalInitialize dd 8B68FF6Ah ; j hï

Edit3:

I send an API request to Terratec, too
