Slow channel decrypt or decrypt error (1 Viewer)

[DjeC64]

Hello;
SInce 1.3 I have a "no right to decrypt press OK" error appearing when using the Astoncrypt 2.26 in CINES S2 DVB-S2 card.
I remember that this kind of error existed in the past 1.2 series and that some experimental files resolved it. Not sure if it is related.
Hoever the problem is that for recording channels i cannot press OK and sometimes they fail.

Please advise from my logs.

Thank you,

Hello

I'm not sure what to say to you except that:
1. The instruction to start decrypting is successfully sent to the tuner driver.
2. The stream is not being decrypted.

So it appears like the CAM is at fault.

...then when the next tuner is tried, decrypting succeeds.
So seems like your subscription entitlements are not being kept up to date with the CAM.

Right it seems that on few channels the Astoncrypt is not able to decrypt the channels however I need to find out if those are the same all the times.
I need input for other French Canalsat users. Here is my configuration:
Viaccess smit secure with card 39 type decodes well all channels all the time.
Astoncrypt 2.26 with card 18 type does not decode systematically few channels. I could not find any info from French sat forums if canalsat changed scrambling method.

Are there any card 18 users in same case? Sebastii ?

 

[Sebastiii]

Canal sat does a lot of change and my 039 card does not updated anymore
018 seems to be upgraded to be use into official Canal+ Receiver and some limit are put on it (2 channels @ the same time if i understand the change).

You can reduce the time by change wait for timeshift file in setuptv to 5 sec. it will speedup thing when channel doesn't work anymore.

I tested with Card 39 (viaccess) no problem. Only Card 18 mediaguard with Astoncrypt has difficulties to descramble. Few channels are impossible others only fails the 1st time then pop up right error message press OK and it works. See channels Eurosport 2 and NT1 for exemple in the logs.
Is it some security feature from the tv provider or a failure of Tvserver ? How do you explain that I can pass the rights error message for few channels?

Thanks

As far as I'm concerned it is nothing to do with TV Server and everything to do with your CAM/smartcard and the DD tuner driver.
There's nothing that we can do in TV Server if the CAM/smartcard refuses to descramble a channel.
There's also nothing that we can do if the CAM/smartcard decides to send you "access denied"... but then you can still watch the channel.
Again, seems to me like your subscription is not properly up-to-date.
