<p>It doesn't appear that FFmpeg can decode the relevant information. You need something that can analyze the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program-specific_information#CAT_.28Conditional_access_specific_data.29" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Conditional Access Table (CAT)</a> and probably the other tables (PMT, PAT, etc.). <a href="http://www.digitalekabeltelevisie.nl/dvb_inspector/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">DVB Inspector</a> or <a href="http://dvbsnoop.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">DVBSnoop</a> might display the relevant information, but I don't have first hand experience with either and working with the CAT.</p>

Thanks for the hint Michael, I also think that what I am trying to do cannot be made with ffmpeg, and it is a pity, because initially when I tried to encode my stream with ffmpeg, it was crashing and it took me a while to figure out that it was crashing because of the scrambled streams in it.

Dealing with conditional access with even the best commercial tools is not easy.

<p>So I found some solution, even though, the output is not very pretty. You can use either <a href="http://dvbsnoop.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">dvbsnoop</a> or <a href="http://altaisdigital.com/index.php/test-tools/ts-analyser-linux-command-line" rel="nofollow noreferrer">demuxtoy</a> to do that. I didn't find a proper solution for dvbsnoop though. What you can do is to run: </p>

<p>So using this command you can see the defined CAS in the CAT table PID 0x01. </p>

<p>With demuxtoy you can actually check which channels are scrambled and which are not:
<code>
$ demuxtoy --out=directory/ tmpts.ts
</code> 
This will save the TS data in directory/ so you can navigate to there and check in <code>directory/mpts/SUMMARY/</code> either CASMessages.txt or Programs.txt. This is the output of <code>directory/mpts/SUMMARY/Programs.txt</code>:</p>

<p>From the output is obvious that only ServusTV HD Deutschland is FTA, the only program which doesn't have ECM PIDs. </p>

<p>I have also tried to get the same information using tsreport and tsinfo part of the tstools but I was unable to do that.  </p>

<p>Based on ffmpeg output, restricted streams are: 0, 10 - 23</p>
<p>stream 0 is probably the unscramble information/table for the encrypted streams, like program/stream descriptor tags (8 bits)</p>
<p>ffmpeg &quot;Could not find codec parameters&quot; nor &quot;start time for stream&quot;
for 3 of the restricted streams, therefore ffmpeg could not &quot;estimate rate&quot; of frames.</p>
<p>Solution suggested to fix the problem was to &quot;Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration' and 'probesize' options&quot;, which won't work without knowing how to implement/interpret stream 0</p>
<p>Stream 0 contains PAT (Program Association Table), has information about all the programs contained in the Transport Stream. The PAT contains information showing the association of Program Map Table PID and Program Number. The PAT should end with a 32-bit CRC</p>
<p>Streams 1-9 seems to be unrestricted:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>1 - 1080p video at 25 fps<br>
2,3 - German/English audio dubbing<br>
4 - German surround sound 5.1<br>
5 - German subtitle<br>
6 - German surround sound (Enhanced ac3 format - newer Dolby Digital Plus format)<br>
7,8,9 - subtitle (could be audio describing for hearing impaired)<br></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Looks like at the time of recording, you were tuned into &quot;ServusTV HD Deutschland&quot;, therefore the other channels/programs have been left encrypted.</p>

<p>I have couple of streams recorded with couple of services which are encrypted. Is there a way to check which streams/programs are scrambled in ffmpeg. I have tried with <code>ffmpeg -i mpts.ts</code> but it doesn't provide me a straight forward information about it. I have tried to google it but also didn't find any information.</p>

<p>This is the output of <code>ffmpeg -i mpts.ts</code></p>

when you say straightforward...what information do you get from it?

@DrMayhem I have added the output of `ffmpeg -i mpts.ts`. Please note that in this MPTS only Servus TV HD Deutschland is FTA, the rest of the services are encrypted.

I'm not convinced this is on topic. @AJH - what do you think?

@DrMayhem what do you mean by that this might not be on topic?

This appears to be entirely an ffmpeg syntax question, so I don't think that is useful here. I haven't closed it, as I'd like wider opinion, but as per @AJHenderson's meta post on this, having the site end up as an ffmpeg usage and syntax site is not where we think it should be.

@DRMayhem This is a broadcast engineering question, so I'd argue that is on topic.

ffmpeg MPTS detection of scrambled streams

# ffmpeg MPTS detection of scrambled streams

(Asked by: username_0 on 2017-08-28)

I have couple of streams recorded with couple of services which are encrypted. Is there a way to check which streams/programs are scrambled in ffmpeg. I have tried with ffmpeg -i mpts.ts but it doesn't provide me a straight forward information about it. I have tried to google it but also didn't find any information.
This is the output of ffmpeg -i mpts.ts

It doesn't appear that FFmpeg can decode the relevant information. You need something that can analyze the [Conditional Access Table (CAT)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program-specific_information#CAT_.28Conditional_access_specific_data.29) and probably the other tables (PMT, PAT, etc.). [DVB Inspector](http://www.digitalekabeltelevisie.nl/dvb_inspector/) or [DVBSnoop](http://dvbsnoop.sourceforge.net/) might display the relevant information, but I don't have first hand experience with either and working with the CAT.

> **Comments:**
> **username_0**: Thanks for the hint Michael, I also think that what I am trying to do cannot be made with ffmpeg, and it is a pity, because initially when I tried to encode my stream with ffmpeg, it was crashing and it took me a while to figure out that it was crashing because of the scrambled streams in it.  
> **username_2**: Dealing with conditional access with even the best commercial tools is not easy.

So I found some solution, even though, the output is not very pretty. You can use either dvbsnoop or demuxtoy to do that. I didn't find a proper solution for dvbsnoop though. What you can do is to run: 
$ dvbsnoop -s ts -pd 9 -tssubdecode -nph -if mpts.ts 0x01

So using this command you can see the defined CAS in the CAT table PID 0x01. 
With demuxtoy you can actually check which channels are scrambled and which are not:

$ demuxtoy --out=directory/ tmpts.ts
 
This will save the TS data in directory/ so you can navigate to there and check in directory/mpts/SUMMARY/ either CASMessages.txt or Programs.txt. This is the output of directory/mpts/SUMMARY/Programs.txt:
$ cat Programs.txt

From the output is obvious that only ServusTV HD Deutschland is FTA, the only program which doesn't have ECM PIDs. 
I have also tried to get the same information using tsreport and tsinfo part of the tstools but I was unable to do that.

### Answer by username_3 on 2021-11-14. Score: 0

Based on ffmpeg output, restricted streams are: 0, 10 - 23

stream 0 is probably the unscramble information/table for the encrypted streams, like program/stream descriptor tags (8 bits)

ffmpeg "Could not find codec parameters" nor "start time for stream"
for 3 of the restricted streams, therefore ffmpeg could not "estimate rate" of frames.

Solution suggested to fix the problem was to "Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration' and 'probesize' options", which won't work without knowing how to implement/interpret stream 0

Stream 0 contains PAT (Program Association Table), has information about all the programs contained in the Transport Stream. The PAT contains information showing the association of Program Map Table PID and Program Number. The PAT should end with a 32-bit CRC

Streams 1-9 seems to be unrestricted:

> 1 - 1080p video at 25 fps  
> 2,3 - German/English audio dubbing  
> 4 - German surround sound 5.1  
> 5 - German subtitle  
> 6 - German surround sound (Enhanced ac3 format - newer Dolby Digital Plus format)  
> 7,8,9 - subtitle (could be audio describing for hearing impaired)

Looks like at the time of recording, you were tuned into "ServusTV HD Deutschland", therefore the other channels/programs have been left encrypted.
