  • Hi,


    I have installed a Xbox tuner to use with my Zgemma H9 Twin running OpenAtv 6.4 over kernel 4.4.35 for the purpose of accessing DVB-C channels that I can receive. So far I don’t have any problem with FTA channels, but I want to access subscription channels via the viewing card provided by the cable operator and i have a problem. The cam I’m using is LA Digital Ci+ Conax and I have paired with my viewing card and it functions very well on Sansung tv, however on the receiver I get authentication messages and it says authentication successful, but the channels’ picture doesn’t come and screen is black! I have Ci+ helper also installed from the plugins menu.


    i’m wondering if it’s because of the tuner or the cam?

    Conax cams runs best without the CI+ helper so deactivate the helper and run the module in Legacy Mode. In the Common Interface menu make sure you also have Highbitrate support set to ON/Yes

    I removed the ci helper and put ci basic settings to legacy mode, and high bitrate is on and then rebooted, but unfortunately picture doesn’t come!
    My viewing card (Finland’s Elisa cable) is paired with the cam and in the CA info page I can see card number, Software version, etc.

    I have only used CD (Alente) Conax cam so maybe the Cable Cam use Device Paring also??


    You can call the customer service and test by asking if you can use the cam + card in some old TV like Philips that have an old common interface slot

  • The card and cam should be paired(cam’s number should be registered online), but I tested it on two different samsung tvs and it works!

    I tried these images, but no luck!
