how to tell my DM900 how many streams it can decrypt at once ?

  • In older hardware I used, I needed to specify that it could ask the CI/CAM for >1 stream at once.
    I find that dreambox goes black if already decoding a stream (even if on same transponder)
    - maybe it's related to that ?

  • Common Interface Setting can descramble multiple services.yes/no/auto

  • thank you.I forced it to yes.
    I were able to receive more than one channel instantly - however, while zapping (and recording) I suddenly got a black screen on other transponders.
    Do you know if there are is any config needed to make both use CI ?
    (both tuners are connected to the same LNB, one of then is "same as...")


    Or: is there a way to test both (tune a channel with a particular tuner)
    - I have no reason to believe the cable /LNB output to the second tuner was to blame, I saw 16db and black screen while recording, and assume it indicates good signal on the tuner.

  • So, my DM900 with 2x DVB-S2 tuners (two LNB connections) will never be able to recond/watch two different scrambled channels on different transponders ?
    if so, I must have misunderstood something when ordering..

  • That's correct for CI modules and most receivers. AFAIK only the Reelbox was able to do Multi-Transponder-Decoding for CI.


    Other solutions without this limitation (Softcams) may not be discussed here due to the board rules :frowning_face:

    so long
