Description

I have the following problem.
When trying to watch channels from my cable provider, I'm getting the following error:

2018-11-19 22:10:46.151 subscription: 000B: service instance is bad, reason: No descrambler
2018-11-19 22:10:48.151 subscription: 000B: restarting channel HBO HD

oscam does not even get a request to decode.
However, once I enable the 'remove scrambled bits' setting, oscam starts to request ecms (with answer in 200-300ms from card), but this time I'm getting these errors:

2018-11-19 22:14:49.150 subscription: 001E: "127.0.0.1 [ root | Kodi Media Center ]" subscribing on channel "HBO HD", weight: 150, adapter: "Silicon Labs Si2168 #0 : DVB-C #0", network: "Digi", mux: "434MHz", provider: "DIGI TV", service: "HBO HD", profile="htsp", hostname="127.0.0.1", username="root", client="Kodi Media Center"

2018-11-19 22:14:49.392 TS: Digi/434MHz/HBO HD: MPEG2AUDIO @ #6522: Invalid start code d8:be:63

2018-11-19 22:14:49.392 TS: Digi/434MHz/HBO HD: MPEG2AUDIO @ #6524: Invalid start code d8:be:63

2018-11-19 22:14:49.458 TS: Digi/434MHz/HBO HD: H264 @ #6521: Invalid start code 25:25:bc

2018-11-19 22:14:49.474 TS: Digi/434MHz/HBO HD: AC3 @ #6523: Invalid start code c0:e3:cb

But, if then I disable again the 'remove scrambled bit' option, while the channel is still opening, suddenly everything start to work, no more invalid start codes, and in oscam log I can see the dvbapi requesting ECMs.

Tvheadend version being used:HTS Tvheadend 4.3-1529 ~ LibreELEC Tvh-addon v9.0.444

Tuner is a SI2168.

The same setup is used also with a Sundtek DVB-S tuner, and with this one scrambled channels are working correctly, with the 'remove scrambled bit' disabled.
