Zusammenfassung:An apparatus and method for sending encrypted data to a conditional access module (CAM) over a common interface (CI). A plurality of data packets are formed, and one data packet of the plurality of data packets includes a header and a payload for storing the encrypted data. The data packets are sent to the CAM over a transport stream (TS) interface of the CI. Encrypted data in different file formats can be sent over the TS interface. An initialization message including information about a selected format can be sent to the CAM over a control interface of the CI, and the CAM can send data request messages over the control interface to request specific data.
