Ok, if I add "Original Network ID" (which is 0926) it seems like autodetect muxes work. And it fins services - 277 all in all. Cool!

A bit more testing - for the unencrypted channels I can copy the "Play" link from the Services tab and open that as a network stream in VLC - and it works.
It gives a line like this in the log:
Feb 26 20:30:49.783 subscription: "HTTP" direct subscription to adapter: "Sony CXD2820R", network: "", mux: "272,000 kHz", provider: "Get", service: "Get Infokanal", quality: 100

Encrypted channels is another story. I have a OSCam server running on another machine. When I test with tvheadend 3.4.27 on Linux I can see in the OSCam log that the clients connects when I enable
the code word client in the CSA tab. However, when I try to do this in tvheadend 3.4.0 on FreeBSD, the log in tvheadend immediately fills with lines like these:
Feb 26 20:49:04.480 cwc: Attemping to connect to v2:15050
Feb 26 20:49:04.481 cwc: Connection attempt to v2:15050 failed: The specified host is unknown
Feb 26 20:49:04.481 cwc: v2:15050: Automatic connection attempt in in 3 seconds
Feb 26 20:49:07.001 cwc: Attemping to connect to v2:15050
Feb 26 20:49:07.002 cwc: Connection attempt to v2:15050 failed: The specified host is unknown

And there is nothing in the OSCam log indicating that the cwc has even attempted to get in contact.
If I try the IP address instead of the hostname I get this:
Feb 26 20:54:26.771 cwc: Attemping to connect to 10.1.150.17:15050
Feb 26 20:54:26.771 cwc: Connection attempt to 10.1.150.17:15050 failed: Unknown error
Feb 26 20:54:26.771 cwc: 10.1.150.17:15050: Automatic connection attempt in in 3 seconds
Feb 26 20:54:29.001 cwc: Attemping to connect to 10.1.150.17:15050
Feb 26 20:54:29.001 cwc: Connection attempt to 10.1.150.17:15050 failed: Unknown error
Not sure what that is about.
