Hello,

I wrote a script for updating the the keys of my dreambox.
In order to minimize the traffic, I wanted the script to check for new keys from the web whenever a scrambled channel can not be decoded.
The only way what I found is to check the /tmp/ecm.info file which is empty when a particular channel can not be decoded.
The problem is that this file is empty also when the channel is FTA.
Therefore I need to know how can I check from the command line whether a channel is FTA or paid.

Thanks for the help.
