Hi there,

It finally works without any change in the code.

They (free.fr) added Conditional Access in their streams, and this
caused the "LAm" (partial lock) we got.

I just set the freetoaironly field to 0 in the cardinput table, and it
now works perfectly.
Thanks to Daniel for this mail :

Hope it helps

Mickaël
