8.7.1. Service Strategy

Service strategy determines the decoder' behaviour at the start-up or when the decoding
program is inactive. The following options in the Service Strategy screen set the
ProView 2900 service selection strategy parameters.
1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2
The available options are:
Auto. Call 1st Active – The ProView 2900 locks-onto the first active service detected in
•
the transport-stream. This mode is recommended for DSNG and other applications that
frequently change the decoded program.
NOTE
When Auto call first active mode is selected, the ProView 2900 might switch to the first
detected program when the TS is interrupted for any reason.
Wait for User Select – The ProView 2900 searches for a specific (user-defined) service
•
to lock-on to. the ProView 2900 is tuned to decode the selected program, even if it does
not exist in the TS. This mode is recommended for broadcast applications where the
decoded program is fixed, and seldom changes.

8.7.2. Service CAS Open

This parameter defines which ES will be decrypted by the CAM. It is possible to either instruct
the ProView 2900 to decrypt all the received ES, or allow it to decrypt only the ones that are
currently being decoded.
