history

VDR softcam plugin 0.9.1

- Fixed ConstCW key lookup (was broken due to Nagra1/2 key handling changes).
- Fixed cardclient camd3 to include SID in ECM request.
- Fixed cardclient newcamd to handle NULL-cw which are send by newcs.
- Removed logger option 'non-recording on' from the config. In 0.5.x it is
  without function anyways.
- Added a message to hint the user about unusual values in ScCaps. Changed the
  default values to something more reasonable too.
- Updated FFdecsa patch to 0.1.2 (fixing a segfault).

13.10.2005: Version 0.5.1
- Added smartcard Cryptoworks EMM handling. There is a setup option to disable
  the parental rating on the card too (experimental). Thanks to scotty for the
  sample code.
- Added smartcard Viaccess EMM handling (experimental).
- Added FFdecsa-0.1.1 patch.
- Don't count a live stream on a FF card when deciding about allowed
  concurrency. A live stream doesn't use bandwidth on the bus.
- Apply min. ECM processing time to Nagra2 too.
- Fixed segfault for Seca1.
- Fixed Irdeto key updates. Somehow/sometime the code was broken.
- Fixed cardclient newcamd NDS EMM (still experimental).
- Now considering the key size when superseding keys.
- Forgot to mention that you need additional table files for Seca 6a (s2_sse.bin
  5120; s2_sse_006a.bin 336; s2_cw_006a.bin 512 (Numbers are the filesize)).
- Updated finnish translations.

15.09.2005: Version 0.5.0
- Forked development branch.
- Added concurrent recording feature i.e. record/view multiple encrypted
  channels on a single DVB card. This also works on a full-featured DVB card!
  To make this feature work you NEED:
  on a BUDGET card:
    * SoftCSA version 0.1.0 or greater
  on a FULL-FEATURED card:
    * a DVB driver patched with dvb-cwidx.diff
    * a specialy patched firmware. The "normal" patched firmware doesn't work!
  See further details in the README.
- vdr-sc patch has been updated. This plugin version ONLY works with this patch!
  Older plugin versions doesn't work with this patch, although they may compile
  fine!
- Dropped compatibility for older VDR versions. Requires VDR version 1.3.29 or
  newer.
- Changed card & provider handling in cardclient camd35 (experimental).
- Added NDS support to newcamd cardclient (experimental).
- Added limited Seca 6a support.
- Fixed mismatching Nagra1 & Nagra2 keys.
