You can apply for an api key from FreeDVB without any fees.

With only two previous posts, I cannot send a PM yet. How can I obtain an api key? Can FreeDVB send one in PM to me please.
Edit: PMs are now unlocked with this third forum post :)

Thanks for your help. Can you please explain how to obtain the TS variable? Is it the crypt8? If so, the example TS is much bigger than a typical crypt8. Thank you.

Grab any TS packet, 188 bytes long, that is marked with the PUSI bit set in the 4 byte header. Sign it as described in the first post in this thread, and submit to the server. Response is inside a couple of seconds, either not found, or good key.

Thank you! It works for me. :-).

Just some followup questions:
1. Does it matter what PID the packet is from Audio or Video?
2. Are there ever fake packets? If so, are their ways to detect them?
3. Does it matter mpeg2 vs. mpeg4?

@signalq - seems to make no difference whether the packet is audio/video, mpeg2/4 etc, but in all cases the packet should be one where the PUSI bit is set.
