Errrrr, no, they don't, they have support for CI. There is no opensource implementation of any CI+, sadly, and it's unlikey that this is gonna ever happen officially (the whole purpose of the "+" are restrictions, which cannot be enforced if "those smelly bearded opensource hippies" could access the tv-programs)

If you meant "simple CI-Hardware-CAMs", there are multiple threads and bugs about this, the summary (how i understood it): Would be nice, but not gonna happen anytime soon, there's noone with the know-how and time in the core-team to implement it. Depending on how much you (and others) want this, maybe a Kickstarter-Style bounty would be the way to go...

As i described the support for CI is already in most other compareable software, if you knew what the Common interface is you probably know that CI+ is not supported by the listed programs i gave as a reference hence it would be incorect to say CI+ but CI support for tvheadend.

CI hardware cams is supported and working in other opensource solutions, why mention bugs? lol

what is wrong with opensource? by the way do you have a beard maybe?

why is this list called a feature list? have you thought about that? its to list features you want, do you see a time schedule for developers here? so why even mention that the core team has other things to use the time on?

the licensing for this software open up for anybody to contribute, where did you got the idea that this was something only core memembers could do?

I am using successfully using tvheadend with an OScam server.
The only issue I have seen in the past was EMM support crashing my cards, so tvheadend is not set to update them.

It might look a bit complex first but works fine for me.

Hi

Yes softcams works good, but the problem is its questionable due to TOS violations from the supplier and in some countrys its actualy illegal to use.

Dont get me wrong, OSCam, csp, mcs and CCcam is good software but its not something everybody want to use.

Like Hanspeter said you'll likely to never see CI+ support in any open source software. You should perhaps update the topic and original post to talk about standard CI only since that is what's technically possible to implement and what is already implemented in rivaling software such as vdr. The fact is that many DVB tuners for Linux have missing driver support for their CAM devices since they are mostly seen as optional (often the hardware itself is optional too). That's probably one of the reasons why no one has ever bothered implementing CI support in tvheadend in the first place (coupled with the fact that Oscam works for the majority of cards).

errr, have i said something against opensource?

Yes, i have ;). No offence intended, the bearded hippie reference was how we (opensource community) are usually perceived by big corporations, they dont want us accessing their "high value content", they wish to controll the entire chain.

so why even mention that the core team has other things to use the time on?

That's my interpretation of the various threads in the forum and bugtrackers, not a fact, as i wrote...

Again, no offence intended, my point was, CI+ is not going to happen (there simply are no hardware CI+ for PCs, they have to be certified and dont get the digital certificates to communicate with the CAMs without it), and CI is not something that's really easy to implement, currently i don't think there are too many people who really understand the code and could do it. Any, one could ask, is it really worth the effort, when more and more providers switch to CI+

technicality CI is nothing more then device in PCMCIA slot
decrypting is on device so it is not interesting how work
real implementation is how to put channel pid to this device
and get decrypted one

http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/doc/PCMCIA-PROG.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_device_bandwidths#Portable

after that maby any PCMCIA card-reader on usb can be used

technically thats true, but to my knowledge the is no implementation of a driver for CAMs, because officially, a CI is always connected to a DVB-Chip (even in linux-based boxes like dreambox), and not to a normal PCMCIA/PCI Controller, i guess simply because there never was any need for it (if you had a legal CAM, you used it in a real CI, and with a softcam you dont need the CI at all).

It would probably be pretty challenging to implement a CI driver (i don't think all documents are public) for a PCI-Based PCMCIA Slot, let alone CI+ (which uses all sorts of certificates, signatures, encryption, even Diffie-Hellman for the key-exchange), not even talking about the technical and legal issues of extracting a CI+ certificate from some certified device. I guess if someone can do it, it's the guys who develop oscam. Let's hope one of them get's pissed off enough by his provider to attempt this

If you're talking about something like this http://www.amazon.de/Terratec-Cinergy-Usb-externes-CI-Modul/dp/B000WL98O6 i don't think that would work, because this isn't really a PCMCIA Interface that transparently allows you to access the PCMCIA-Card, it's a usb-connected CI with a CI Controller. But something like http://www.amazon.de/M-Cab-PCMCIA-PCI-Add-On-Card/dp/B000W22UFE could work.

Well, i'll be damned

Now, CI+ is at least a possibility :-D

CI yes, but CI+ ????

CAM code using libdvben50221 is in v3.9-2706-gabb1409 . Closing. Create a new issue when you find a bug.

This is really nice news. Any special settings somewhere ? I did a quick test but bad result. I have not used my CAM for a while so will check with dvblast later.

Just tested my CAM with dvblast and it works perfect. Which settings do I need to do in tvh ?

This is so cool!
I have been waiting to kill my messy setup with two tuners for so long.
Currently I have a tuner with a Danish Boxer CAM and card (Boxer-DK is using Secure Viaccess that is not supported by any softcams), running mumuDVB and multicasting to TVH on the same box.
TVH has it's own tuner card for receiving all the FTA channels.

I will test this as soon as I have setup a new box with unstable TVH, and let you know how far I get.

My tuner is a TechniSat CableStar Combo HD CI "DRXK DVB-C DVB-T".

So I finally got around to build a new TV box and test TVH 3.9
I am using Ubuntu server 15.04 Vivid Vervet but using the unstable package from 14.10 Utopic Unicorn since there is no package for 15.x

Everything seems to be working fine, but like Bengt I can get the CAM to work. I don't even get the output from the CAM like you Bengt. Where do you see that?

I tested with mumudvb and that is working just fine.

Any settings that need to be set? Is there somewhere you configure which CAM to use for which channel?

Sorry my bad. I didn't though about this is not standard in the Ubuntu build.

I have rolled my own build with --enable-dvben50221 and now I get the exact same errors as you Bengt

Excellent!
I will wait eagerly for the solution then.
Let me know if there is anything I can help with, log, trace etc.

No activety for over a year

There has been an unfinished (according to the author) attempt of a CI+ implementation here:

https://github.com/dmarion/tvheadend/tree/ciplus

It does not work, but it is good enough to trigger an authentication of the CA by the CAM, so the TLS-handshake at least starts...

Anyone willing to have a crack at it...?

The needed certificates are "available" inside the package for dreamy-receivers (i don't want to link to these sites, but i assume, anyone who is able to implement something like this will be able to find them )

They wont do it, because they are afraid of legal issues (tvheadend devs are scared of almost everything related to descrambling).
Dreambox packages are pirate, ci+ requires official certification. You have to take over that github and continue the work yourself, you wont find any help here, trust me. It's surprising they didn't shut this topic down yet =)

@Victor S: Thats complete bullshit. Feel free to implement this and I'm sure it would be merged.

@Jaroslav: Would you merge this if this is implemented in a proper and clean way or is there any reason to not do that?

There are two parts:

1) implementation (it may be added to tvheadend's code)
2) the cryptographic keys (this is legal only if you are permitted to use those keys)
