oscam 11517 ipk for all images on edision os mega

@sparingbul :

Try to see if and which version of the "libusb" library you have installed:

opkg list-installed | grep libusb

Probably a new Oscam requires a newer version of libusb, and there may not be a new libusb library in the old Enigma (outdated Enigma image). I don't know which edition of the Enigma do you use, but if a new one is still supported for your box, you can also try to update your library via feed-server:

opkg update
opkg list | grep libusb
opkg upgrade libusb-1.0-0           # or use the correct library name from the above libusb-installed listing, instead of the "libusb-1.0-0" name

- explanation of used opkg arguments :

opkg update                         # update all offline opkg package lists (from internet - from online feeds)
opkg list | grep libusb             # search all packages what contains the string "libusb"
opkg list-installed | grep libusb   # search all packages already installed what contains the string "libusb"

... and someone will advise you on how to go

... in the worst case, it is possible to create a symbolic link to another libusb (Oscam will survive if you don't use USB at all - for an external card reader, for example)

gilvey:

Starting of the softcam is dependent on a particular Enigma distribution. Unfortunately, every distribution has multiple and different options for starting softcam when booting Enigma or booting Linux.

If you use the IPK package, it doesn't have to fit your Enigma distribution in terms of softcam launch. If you are using the IPK package to install softcam, make sure it fits into your Enigma (according to how you run the softcam in Enigma).

Otherwise, I recommend a little to learn how to work with Linux (basics) and use command-line ("Shell") to manually install softcam:

Quote from gilvey

i can install it, its getting it to start thats the problem

If you use OpenATV it will be the same problem what everyone is writing about it here. A few days ago, in OpenATV, they decided to throw out support for "/etc/*.emu" which, unfortunately, still supports a lot of other Enigma distributions. Since then, the IPK package that will use .emu files for OpenATV no longer works. It's actually about using Softcam Panel, which OpenATV wants to remove completely. If this is also your problem (OpenATV after upgrading with non-functional SoftKs IPK packages that use the "/etc/*.emu" file), I described the temporary bash script here - OpenATV SoftCam Feed Discussion Thread . There is no better option yet. Maybe install a third party CAM-manager into your Enigma (instead of the Softcam Panel plugin).

OK, so how do you know it's installed for sure at 100% ? How did you verify it ? Did you try to start a binary via the command-line (Shell): /usr/softcams/oscam --help ? Which IPK package do you own exactly ? I don't know exactly what kind of the softcam launcher is used by OpenVIX. If I'm not mistaken, there is a folder "/usr/softcams" for softcam binary files only. Can you locate the oscam inside of this folder ?

IMHO, you will not avoid manual installation of a softcam :). Definitely, if you want the latest softcam release, which is not yet ready as an IPK package for your Enigma, it is better to use the manual method of installing softcam.

An alternative and simple solution would be to install the latest functional version of Oscam-Emu as an IPK package into your OpenVIX. You will then download Oscam-Emu binary from the internet, which is designed for your set-top box (by chipset architecture). Then you upload the binary file to the set-top box instead of the original binary (overwriting the file) with the name of the old binary file, in the "/usr/softcams" folder. Then you reboot the system. That's all. It's not science.

////////// EDIT :

Finally, I have found the IPK installation found on the Internet, which should also be designed for OpenVIX. Uninstall all previous Softcams in your Enigma2 before! Back up your Oscam-Emu configuration files. Then install this Oscam-Emu IPK package and don't move or copy anything, just return your configuration files back to the set-top box. It should work after rebooting the box.

Quote of the installation script, in the IPK package:

elif [ -r /usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/ViX ]; then
   echo "OpenVIX image"
   cp -rf /tmp/DreamOSat/openvix/* / > /dev/null 2>&1
   cp -rf /tmp/DreamOSat/${BIN} /usr/softcams > /dev/null 2>&1
elif grep -qs -i "OpenViX" /etc/image-version ; then
   echo "OpenVIX image"
   cp -rf /tmp/DreamOSat/openvix/* / > /dev/null 2>&1
   cp -rf /tmp/DreamOSat/${BIN} /usr/softcams > /dev/null 2>&1

So this should finally work for your Enigma2 / OpenVIX.
