If the status is inactive then go into swap file settings and activate it or use the telnet command from the link i gave you and restart the VU+.
I would`nt remove webinterface or cross epg downloader as they are both very useful, remove the rest if you like.
SoftCam.Key and AutoRoll.Key are not required & can safely be commented out, if you are using a dm500 to read the card a better option would probably be to install oscam on the receiver and 2.13 on your server then connect the two via nline so your local shows local instead of hop1,
Its a sim 2.0.1 so you can flash any image from that section.
Look in the VU+ tutorials section for adding HDD.
Remove unneeded plugins to free up ram.
You`ve 97% used already so without a swap file your Vu+ will start to struggle very soon.
Blue > Blue > Swap file settings > Green/Create > choose 256 M > Save > Red/Activate > Yellow/Autostart.
I know of peers that have over 150 F and C lines, but it really depends on how much ram/ memory you have free.
The more plugins you use the less peers you can have.
If you have no swapfile created that will limit you also.
Thanks Ten Below. I have done the manual install of debian 6 and CCcam 2.2.1. The server can be loged onto on my local network and external so i think the server and cccam ar working fine. Can you give me some advise on whether SOFTKEY FILE/AUTOROLL FILE/STATIC CW FILE/CHANNEL INFO Etc should have any info in them to read the cards? These are all empty on my server i think the CCcam.cfg is right now but still no joy! Can i post my cfg file for you to give it a check for me? Once again thanks for your help i am very new to linux and CCcam but just about getting by! PS this is a great forum.
These files will not affect the reading of your card, post your config so we can look mate.
You`ve got the option of using a conax cam in the VU+, I used this method all last year.
If you want to use a EMU to get updates then Mgcamd is the only way to do it. So you will have to use a combination of Oscam which is the only cam that reads tring and Mgcamd to get the update.
There are two methods of controlling your server:
Oscam as server and Mgcamd as client softcam.
Oscam as card reader and CCcam as server, but switch to Oscam and Mgcamd client once a month to get the update.
This file is from the OSCAM itself so it must be in the right format.
Besides I used it in my OSCAM without any problem.
It may need adjusting cazueala but that's always the case.
Even CCcamchannel info is not always up to date is it?
RelookPVR
Just looked at the file and its called oscam.srvid.txt, you need to delete the .txt and chmod 644 for it to be compatable in oscam.
This tutorial will explain how to use the Open Source Conditional Access Module (Oscam) as a server to read your Sly white card and Mgcamd as the softcam.
OSCAM CONFIGURATION
All Oscam configuration files are located in /var/tuxbox/config folder for Enigma1 or /etc/tuxbox/config for Enigma2 receivers.
The three important files are:
oscam.conf
oscam.server
oscam.user
The oscam.conf is as follows:
[global]
logfile = /tmp/oscam.log
nice = -1
preferlocalcards = 1
saveinithistory = 1
resolvegethostbyname = 1
# logging
#pidfile = /var/run/oscam.pid
logfile = /var/log/oscam.log
usrfile = /var/log/oscamuser.log
cwlogdir = /var/log/cw.log
maxlogsize = 1000
[monitor]
port = 0
nocrypt =
aulow = 30
hideclient_to = 15
monlevel = 3
appendchaninfo = 0
[newcamd]
port = 34000@0963:000000
key = 0102030405060708091011121314
allowed =
keepalive = 1
mgclient = 0
[webif]
httpport = 3001
httphelplang = en
httpuser = admin
httppwd = admin
httprefresh = 10
httpallowed = 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.255
httphideidleclients = 1
httpreadonly = 0
httpsavefullcfg = 0In this section we have used [newcamd] as the client protocol, the port we want to use for the server (34000) and the card type we want this port to service (0963 – NDS white card as used by Sly Digital UK).
The [webif] is the section we define the web interface configuration. We set such options as username, password, port to access the webinterface. The httpallowed section is what clients we want to connect, the above example allows client with an IP address range of 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.255 to connect, therefore we do not allow external clients to connect. Modify this section to reflect the subnet on your local area network.
The oscam.server file is as follows:
[reader]
label = slot1
enable = 1
Protocol = internal
Detect = CD
Device = /dev/sci0
group = 1
EMMCache = 1,3,2
boxid = xxxxxxxx
blockemm-u = 0
blockemm-s = 0
blockemm-g = 1
blockemm-unknown = 1
caid = 0963In this section we specific the details of the card we wish to share.
The [Device=/dev/sci0] related to the first card slot in the receiver., if you are using the bottom slot [Device=/dev/sci1]
The [boxid] is entered here – please note latest releases of OSCam do not require the box key to be included in the oscam.server file – just remove or # out boxid = xxxxxxxx and it will detect it automatically.
The [caid ]is the card we are to read (0963 – NDS white card as used by Sly Digital UK).
The oscam.user file is as follows:
[account]
user = xxxxx
pwd = xxxxx
group = 1
uniq = 1
monlevel = 0
au = 1
caid = 0963
cccmaxhops = -1
cccreshare = -10This is where all users accounts are created.
[au] set this to 1 for only one user, who is the only user allowed to send EMM from the client. You can use the web interface to add more user accounts or modify the oscam.user file and add accounts as required.
For following oscam.user file has 3 accounts setup.
[account]
user = xxx
pwd = xxx
group = 1
uniq = 1
monlevel = 0
au = 1
caid = 0963
cccmaxhops = -1
cccreshare = -10
[account]
user = zzz
pwd = zzz
uniq = 1
monlevel = 0
au = 0
caid = 0963
cccmaxhops = -1
cccreshare = -10
[account]
user = yyy
pwd = yyy
disabled = 1
group = 1
uniq = 1
monlevel = 0
au = 0
caid = 0963
cccmaxhops = -1
cccreshare = -10
group = 1As you can see, we only allow one user account to au by setting the option to 1 for a single user account and 0 for the other user accounts.
Once oscam configuration is complete, connect to the web interface via your favourite browser and check the debug information on the main page or use this shell command in telnet.
tail -f /var/log/oscam.logIf no errors were detected, then oscam is ready as a server and waiting for clients to connect.
MGCAMD CONFIGURATION
We will use Mgcamd as a client, Modify the newcamd.list file located in /var/keys. The following is an example of the newcamd.list file connect to an internal oscam server on IP address 192.168.1.7, port 34000, with username and password as xxx.
CWS_KEEPALIVE = 300
CWS_INCOMING_PORT = 21000
CWS= 192.168.1.7 34000 xxx xxx 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 lan oscam2The mg_cfg file is located in/var/keys has the configuration for Mgcamd client.

Display MoreHi all,
I have a local TV Vlaanderen card(caid 00006c) and my peer has a Telesat card (caid 00006d).For some reason when i try to watch the channels 2BE and VT4 from my own card, it is always my peer's card that is chosen so i always have a black screen for some 10 till 15 seconds.This is what i have in my cccam.cfg file:
P: 0100:00006C #TV Vlaanderen (19E/23E)
I: 0500:00006d:31E4 #2BE
I: 0500:00006d:31E5 #VT4
but it doesn't affect...
What did i do wrong here?
I'm running cccam 2.2.1 ,Open Pli 2.1 beta on my Vu+Duo.....kind regards,kieper11
In your cccam.cfg make sure this line is enabled by removing # from infront of it
CAID PRIO FILE : /var/etc/CCcam.prio
Now make a file named CCcam.prio with this information on it
P: 0100:00006C #TV Vlaanderen (19E/23E)
I: 0500:00006d:31E4 #2BE
I: 0500:00006d:31E5 #VT4Put the file in var/ect & restart cam.

Thx dalraist
i had the problems aswell just sticking on bbc midlands with no picture if you do a rescan then download the bouquets from the menu it all goes good,
Cheers it boots always to bbc 1 west midlands with the openpli splash
When you make a backup like this it will always boot to a channel so i figured one from fta section was best. You can set your own startup channel in the menu.
Enter the boxkey in your CCcam.cfg using an ftp programme such as dcc, it is all explained in the link i gave you in post #6.
Display Morethanks for your help guys.
something was definatly corrupted unfortunatly i still dont know what went wrong i tried all of tens soloution with no luck.
i solved the problem by rebuilding the whole server and now everything is working great even better than before.
thanks guys
Pretty drastic lol, anyway glad its working now.
Thread closed.
I run dmesg it says ftdi usb device: dev/tty/usb0. In entiltlements it now says card reader /dev/tts/0
no or unknown card inserted.
Ok dev/tty/usb0 will be correct then, you havent said which card you are using but try adding these lines
CAMKEY: dev/tty/usb0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
