Description

When using HW CAM, some of us found that adding a "false" CA (CAPMT) makes the descrambling procedure much faster and reliable. Without it, it can take 30-40 s to get the stream and sometimes nothings happends. Adding the CAPMT in the CA menu is not any big problem but it's maybe possible to solve in another way in the code. Now it generates a lot of "error" messages. See also:
