Is there any way to start Oscam from the command line?
What is the executable actually called and where does is get installed? I can't find it anywhere.

Command ~ /usr/bin/oscam -c /etc/tuxbox/config
oscam ~ if the oscam binary is named something different in /usr/bin edit the command line.
/etc/tuxbox/config ~ path to the oscam configs. If your configs are in a different folder edit the command line.
Hi.
On most Enigma2 distributions, the "init.d" methos is usually used. Examine the "/etc/init.d" folder in your set-top box. There should be a file like "softcam" or "oscam" or with the extension ".sh". These are shell scripts for automatic execution (at boot time). With their help, you too can restart / stop / start this softcam service.
For example:
/etc/init.d/softcam restart
You can also examine the contents of the "softcam" script. These "init.d" scripts also have some rules and they must be followed in the system.
Please note that some Enigma2 distributions only use the symbolic link "/etc/init.d/softcam", which points to the real shell script file (in the same folder). This is because of possible switching between multiple softcams, via Enigma2 GUI / SKIN.
Here is my universal shell script for softcams, also with instructions at the beginning of the code:
