3. Notice
   (1) We got the report that the fast forward may cause the scrambled picture.
       We wonder that the CI CAM may have some limitations in descrambling the services with fast forward.
       According to the MPEG specifications on MP@ML, about 15 Mbps is the maximum bit rate
       for one video services.
       The normal bit rate of a TV service is 4~6 Mbps so 4x playback exceeds almost maximum bit rate.
       We cannot blame the CAM just because it cannot descramble the video over than the specifications.
       Furthermore, we also found some CAMs which hangs up in case of very high data rate.
       So, we recommend to copy with normal playback if you want to possess the important files in
       the clean(descrambed) format.
