Blackhole script for check if cccam is runing

i dont know of a one for BH but there is a custom made plugin written into the ViX image that does exactly this every 6 minutes made by andyblac.

not knocking the BH images as they work well for those who choose to use them, each to their own and all that. i'm just letting you know that there is currently a system working within the ViX image that does exactly what you want. and after all with backup applications and USB flashing you can be running a ViX image one minute and within 3 to 4 minutes be back to running BH or any other image you choose. you have nothing to loose by trying other images in fact you may just find that you prefer using another image be it pli, ViX, DBUK, AAF or whatever it may be.

I use cccamcheck script on BH and it's working great. This is how it's done :
You ftp the script in /var/script and give attribute 755. Then you go in /etc/bhcron, there you find 2 files bh.cron and root.
In both you add this line :
*/5 * * * * /var/script/./ccheck.sh

The script is named ccheck.sh and it looks like this :
#!/bin/sh
if ps x |grep -v grep |grep -c CCcam >/dev/null
then
echo "cccam... ok"
else
echo "cccam... restarting"
/usr/bin/CCcam_213 &
fi

As you can see it is for CCcam 2.1.3, if you have a different version modify accordingly. Please reply with feedback.

hi Georgexl,
Thanks for your cam restart script. I have done as your instructions but cam is not restarting when I stop it,
Can you enlighten me please?

Hi Guys, still can't get the auto restart to work.
I have looked closely and can't see any mistakes.
In script I have entered cam like this: CCcam_2.3.0
Do I need to use underscore?
Cheers.

Thanks,
Do I have to delete the other scripts I made first with ftp?
