Tvheadend 4.3-710: invalid start code at encrypted HD channels

Marco Baum

Hello,
i'am trying to get tvheadend on my router (TP-link Archer C7) to work. Therefore i have a testing installation (4.3-710) on my router and also an installation (4.3-404~g454bf0600) for using on my odroid c2 in my network.
Furthermore i have oscam (r11392) installed on a rasperberry pi, conncected to the tvheadend versions via newcamd.
My using installation works without problems.
At my testing installation i can not see encrypted channels, all other channels working without problems.
I get the following messages if i try HD Channels


[WARNING]:TS: kg/130MHz/ProSieben HD: H264 @ #6841: Invalid start code 84:12:a6
[WARNING]:TS: kg/130MHz/ProSieben HD: AC3 @ #6842: Invalid start code 8a:6a:ea

Find full log of tvheadend as attachement

Furthermore the corresponding oscam log (at the router i have not set the right time, therefore the time differ)

I think oscam working correct.
Does anyone have an idea what is the problem?

Hello, to go on with the solving of my problem i try to compare the debug output from my using with my testing system.

The following lines are after initialization and different from my using system


2017-11-27 15:11:34.560 [   INFO]:descrambler: adding CAID 2600/FFFF as ConstCW interval 10000ms pc 20 (BISS)
2017-11-27 15:11:34.560 [   INFO]:descrambler: adding CAID 0E00/FFFF as MultiPID interval 1000ms pc 2 (PowerVu)

What is the meaning, i don't understand.

The following lines are after switching to a encrypted programm.

Why there is an update of the caid?

I thought that is according to the provider fixed.

Sorry if the questions are stupid.

Could you solve your issue? I'm using tvheadend version 4.3-1789 with oscam. Both running inside docker container.

All channels are running but sometimes I get short freezer or artifacts. I switched to tvheadends internal cccam and everything worked without issues. But using cccam it's not possible to descramble multiple channels simultaneously (don't know why, get black screen).

I can exclude my oscam server. Either oscam or the connection between oscam and tvheadend makes trouble.

C and N lines can descramble multiple services at once without problem,
dvbapi also.
