    I have an old TM-500 Super that I leave in my Caravan, yes I have an internet connection in my caravan.


    Anyway


    I was messing about with it in the summer and messed up a few things, I have sorted most of them out now.


    I know this is something stupid but I just cant see it myself. Can anybody help me please


    When I change channel I have to restart the cam every time.


    Line works fine, no glitching or anything. But as the TV only has a scart lead in it, no point in using a newer box.


    CWS_KEEPALIVE = 300 Tried with and without
    CWS_INCOMING_PORT = 18000 Tried 18000 and my server port
    CWS = 127.0.0.1 10000 local local 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 lan newcs tried with and without these lines in
    CWS = 127.0.0.1 10001 local local 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 lan newcs tried with and without this line in also

    Only have this line above in newcamd.list and try after editing details in..check chmod of newcamd.list and mg.cfg is set at 644 also


    Change this in your mg.cfg B: { 07 } = B: { 00 }


    Restart mgcamd.

    Just thinking it maybe easier to reflash the thing and start from scratch,


    anybody got a link for TM500 Super software, either back to Factory Default or E1 image

    This is crazy


    Just reflashed thing and using UR image, still can't get my TM500s to stay on when I change channel, tried IQ image and still the same problem. Something very odd here
