Here another reviews that I originally miss that may explain what is going on:
Amlogic support all CAS by HW CSA and SW CSA engine while HiSilicon support all illegaly over SoftCam emulation.
That seems to say that NEW Amlogic CPUs have in fact "SW specific CSA block". So CSA only if you have a CARD. That will prevent our software emulators from working like in powervu tandberg etc.
Now do not get cut in the fight with the wrong info. It is ease to realize that many of the Original Text in the reviews will provide always good info on the product. If they do mot do that they will not get for free the next Item for evaluation!
And the people responding the reviews are most likely the competence trying to negatively influence the review.
But to us users in sat-universe forum it will be of good interest to identify the truth in this situation. I personally was happy with the fact that Amologic did release the Open Source Code. Now I am unhappy and I need to find out witch or the new product may be doing
"SW specific CSA block"
And finding out if this is done on the supply OS and if changing the OS will get rid of the problem. But if the block is been done in Hardware we do not want to buy those products.
