Oscam automatic update

    I'm using an OpenAtv 7.4 image on my Dm900.


    Since a few weeks ago, whenever I update the image, my OScam is automatically updated to the OSCam version 2.24.07-11799-802...


    I'm using the Icam version and this automatic update is a problem... I replace the Icam Bin, but after a few days, when I update, the problem starts again.


    Is there any way to remove the Oscam update from the update list?


    Thanks!

    You need to rename oscam.


    Go to: /etc/init.d

    and find e.g. softcam.oscam-trunk

    rename to e.g. softcam.oscam-icam <--- chmod 755


    Now go to: /usr/bin

    And rename oscam bin file to e.g. oscam-icam <--- chmod 755 <---You update oscam by uploading a bin with the same name.


    Finally go to: /etc/tuxbox/config

    Rename the oscam folder to: oscam-icam <----inside the folder are your oscam files e.g. oscam.server etc. etc.


    It will no longer update itself.

    The Icam patch is now a part of oscam, so you should not need the separate Icam version.


    If the oscam emu update is causing issues, uninstall it. Alternatively, if you go in package manager, you can mark it to hold so that it doesn't update.

    Thanks!


    How can I mark the package to hold?

    I was unable to do that...


    About Icam patch be part of Oscam: for me it only works with Icam version... I will try to understand what could be wrong on my side!

    Thanks!


    I will try it!!

    The oscam emu icam version from the ATV 7.4 plugin feed has icam for sly DE only.

    So they must be building oscam without the sly UK patch.

    The Oscam after update from OpenAt feed do not work for any channel... I only need to replace Bin file to fix it.

    The Oscam version after update it´s: OSCam 2.24.07-11799-802 and for what i understand it´s a version only for octagon and Denys receivers.


    About Icam, from years i use OscamEmu version from Juli13. Probably it´s not patched with Icam. I Will try with a diferent version

    uk patch was added a while back only problem is you need to ad sky uk caid to oscam.config

    The problem is fixed with the rename of Oscam.


    The box still updated the softcam but created a new set of files (in /etc/init.d; usr/bin and etc/tuxbox/config) with the name: oscamemu. So I have 2 versions of Oscam. Icam is not changed and continues to work.


    I don't find any option to exclude packages from the list of available updates. It's possible?


    However, I realized that I have another problem: Icam only works in version r11718-798. Whenever I update it doesn't work.


    I created a new topic for that:

    Post
    Can't update Icam from version r11718-798
    I have a Dm900 with Openatv 7.4 and I've been using Icam (OSCam r11718-798) for a few weeks, it works well but I've now realized that I have a problem: it's the only version that works.

    I use the Bin from @July13. When I try to update to a more recent Bin from the same author I have an Oscam constantly turning on and off from the servers.

    I tried with several different versions and the result was the same (constantly turning on and off from the servers) or an Oscam that simply wouldn't start.

    Thank you for your help

    if you want to exclude a plugin or whatever you need to use terminal example:

    for me it would be


    Stop Plug-in auto updating


    opkg flag hold enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-trunk-ipv4only


    and to enable package again


    opkg flag user enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-trunk-ipv4only


    but you need to know what oscam you have installed and I am talking from feeds

    oscam will still update renaming a file means nothing if original install details are still in on system

    Root/var/lib/opkg/info and Root/var/lib/opkg/status file

    Thanks, this works great to stop updates :smiling face:


    But if i try to enable package again with: opkg flag hold enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-emu

    I get: opkg_flag_cmd: Package enigma2-plugin--softcams-oscam-emu is not installed.

    that is wrong you need to use

    opkg flag user enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-emu


    also have a look at status file in /Root/var/lib/opkg


    search for oscam and you will see the status of the files example for mines it is

    Status: install user installed


    but I do not know what other things you have done before that i.e. perhaps manually copying different oscam and renaming files


    just found out you can use:


    opkg info enigma2-plugin-softcams-oscam-emu

    Thanks for the correction and for give me great an useful information!
