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

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. -
You can only decrypt one transponder per CI module. That's why the 920 got 2 slots with a special FPGA
-
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
