Good afternoon all.

I have just installed purE2 on my DM800SE and cannot seem to get the pause feature working.

(Everything else appears to be working perfectly)

I can set a recordings by timer or by pressing the record button and it works perfectly but if I'm simply wanting to pause the tv whilst watching the football for example I just get a X symbol at the top centre of the screen.

If I am watching a recording I am able to pause it so the button on the remote is obviously working ok.

I have had a look through the timeshift and recording settings but cannot seem to get the live pause feature to work.

Any help and advice would be much appreciated.

Regards, The Soulman.

I've found the ABM in download addons but it says there isn't enough room to install the addon ?

PurE2 new lease of life for old DM800 HD SE and DM500 HD

Quote from The Soulman

Also there is no MGcamd in the list of downloadable softcams.

Use mgcamd that was made for openpli, you can find it on the forum.

Thank you master G.

I have had a look at the PurE2 link and it looks like it may be exactly what I'm looking for.

I'm always keen to have a play around and learn more with regard to using Filezilla and other methods of keeping my faithful old DM800 SE in usable service.

I will definately flash the PurE2 image into the receiver as soon as I have a little time to play around with it and will report back to let you know how I have gotten on.

Thank you once more and regards, The Soulman.

Thank you master G.

Can I install ABM on this image ?

Good day all.

Please could someone confirm that I can use this image on my (Clone) DM800 HD SE A8P

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Apologies, I meant perhaps remove the 01 to 14 numbers in the ccamd.list file as you said they should not be there.

I'd just like to know why I now have MGcamd working and CCcam not working which is exactly the opposite of what I had when I made the first post / started the thread.

Regards, The Soulman.

Use one or the other, not both at the same time as they will conflict with each other.

Thanks Master G.

I'm not running both at the same time.

Do you think removing the 01 to 14 numbers in the CCcam.cfg file will enable CCcam 2.1.1 to work. (On i'ts own)

A c line doesn`t have 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 on the end, thats for an n line.

Should be like this:

Are you using the same user and password on the c line and cws line ? Or do they have different login credentials ?

Hi Master G and thank you for your reply.

Both lines are identical apart from at the beginning of the line.

CCcam line starts with C:

MGcamd line starts with cws =

For your information Master G, I am only attempting to run One softcam at once, not both at the same time.

Perhaps if I remove the 01 to 14 numbers from the C line in the CCcam.cfg File CCcam 2.1.1 might then work ?

Why would admin upload a file for you if it was not relevant to your issue? Please try them.

I have now have the Three files kindly supplied by Master G in usr / keys.

(No other files in usr / keys)

As master G suggested, I have placed the C line in the cccamd.list file and the cws line in the newcamd.list file.

I now find that MGcamd 1.35a works and CCcam 2.1.1 does not.

For your information.

mg_cfg has not been altered / edited and is exactly as supplied by Master G.

The cccamd.list file is as set out as follows;

#############################LINUXSAT-SUPPORT.COM##############################c: vm.xxxxxxxx.com 41414 xxxxxx-4886 505096 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14

The newcamd.list file is set out as follows;

#############################LINUXSAT-SUPPORT.COM#############################CWS_KEEPALIVE = 300

CWS = vm.xxxxxxxx.com 41414 xxxxxx-4886 505096 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14

(I have obviously removed some text and replaced with the x's but the above Two files are set out as above)

Perhaps someone can tell me why I now have the exact opposite of what I had before and now have MGcamd 1.35a working and CCcam 2.1.1 not working.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Why don't you use the files provided for you in post 2?

It says "For latest Enigma 2 receivers"

(I didn't think that my (V1) DM800 HD SE was one of the latest Enigma2 receivers ?).

Quote from abu baniaz

Maybe you can try Gjstroom's PLI image or OpenATV?

Thanks abu baniaz.

I'm now running openATV 6

(But having problems with MGcamd)

See below;

openATV MGcamd 1.35 / 1.38 issue.

Quote from master G

mgcamd can`t read a CCcam.cfg because its for CCcam

add the c line to cccamd.list

newcamd.list is for n / cws lines

use the attached configs for mgcamd

be aware the server needs to be using cccam 2.0.11 and below to allow a c line to work in mgcamd

mgcamd and cccam are very old softcams, oscam is the way to go

oscam configs are attached. convert the c line to a reader and add to oscam.server. Camsconverter, cccam2oscam, mgcamd2oscam

Hi Master G and thanks for the reply.

From what I can gather It would seem that for reasons of stability the server prefers MGcamd to be used.

To provide you with a little more information there are only Three files contained in the usr / keys folder they are as follows;

The CCcam.cfg file which looks as is below.

(I've obviously removed some of the original line and replaced it with the X's)

N: vm.xxxxxxxx.com 12345 xxxxxx-4886 505096 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14

The newcamd.list file which looks as is below;

CWS_KEEPALIVE = 300 CWS = vm.xxxxxxxx.com 12345 xxxxxx-4886 505096 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14

(Again I've replaced some of the original line and replaced it with the X's)

Apologies for the length of this post but I thought that by providing you with exactly what files are in usr / keys and exactly how they are set out, that would give you the best chance of being able to see if there are mistakes in their structure and therefore be able to advise accordingly.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Good afternoon all.

After having a torrid time trying to get the openVIX 5.0.011 image up and running on my (V1) DM800 HD SE I decided to try out the openATV 6 image.

I've got the image installed have set up Flashexpander on a 16GB USB memory stick.

At this moment in time I have CCcam 2.1.1 and MGcamd 1.35a installed. (Only CCcam 2.1.1 in use / active)

CCcam appears to be working without any issues whatsoever.

However I can't get MGcamd to work at all, I have the necessary in place to enable the receiver to clear subbed channels but despite several attempts it fails to do so.

I have tried both MGcamd 1.35 and 1.38 but neither will work.

For your information and after having read up on the openATV image, I have placed the CCcam.cfg, newcamd.list and mg_cfg files into usr / keys.

I've restarted the receiver and MGcamd serveral times but no joy, as soon as I switch to and start CCcam the channels clear no problem.

I'd be very gratefull if anyone could advise me on what may be causing this problem.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Quote from Dikkidave

your doing far too much messing around here soul man.. just download what you need and ftp it to your box (temp folder) or to usb and install it. sack the panel off as its taking too much room up and is not needed

Lraizer Autobouquets E2 UK for Cable DVB C/T

Thanks Dikkidave and all who have attempted to help.

Apologies it's taken me a while to reply but I took your advice and sacked the idea of installing the panel in favour of simply installing only what I needed.

(CCcam and MGcamd)

I have an update and continue to require the expertise of those on here that understand the Linux O/S in depth.

After deciding to forget installing the panel and just install the Two softcams that I would need, my attempts to get this image to run on my DM800 HD SE (V1) receiver have continued in the same disasterous manner.

To avoid turning this post into something containing 5000 words by going through everything I've done in the time it's taken me to reply, I'll tell you exactly where I am at this moment in time.

I reflashed the image and rescanned the tuner and had viewable FTA channels.

I manually installed MGcamd 1.35a onto the receiver and restarted the receiver which restarted without any problems.

I have used the receiver to view FTA channels for a couple of days without any problems.

Yesterday evening I restarted the receiver only for it to go into a boot loop where it shows the message, "We are really sorry. Your receiver has encountered a software problem and needs to be restarted".

After Five minutes of watching the receiver going around in this loop I removed the power supply.

I have this morning switched the receiver back on so that I could read the message again and get the path to where the crash logs are located.

I have saved the most recent crash log into a folder on my computer and have included it at the bottom of this post as an attachment in the hope that someone with the necessary knowledge can read it and perhaps suggest what is causing the receiver to behave as it is.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Good evening Master G.

Following a re-flash of the image and re-scanning the tuner, I have followed your suggestions with regard to DCC / telnet.

When inputting some of the commands like "opkg remove sambaserver" telnet screen reports "No packages removed" on others like "opkg remove mediascanner" it reports "packages removed".

After having done this, I then installed PluginSkinMover and moved the largest single plugin shown which was OpenWebif.

After having moved only this One plugin, I restarted the receiver and it again went into a boot loop.

The only difference from when it did this the first time (When I removed all of the listed plugins) was that whilst in the boot loop, the screen did not show the "We're sorry your receiver has encountered a software problem and needs to be restarted" message.

I am now once again back at the point were I have re-flashed the image, re-scanned the tuner and have some FTA viewable channels which is basically at the same point as were I was a week ago !!!.

Having said that, having had your help with this and having invested some considerable hours running up and down the stairs (Computer is in dining room / Box is in bedroom !!) trying different settings, etc in an attempt to get this image to the point were I can use it, I do not want to give up now.

I am by no means an expert on Linux and these types of issues and other than saying with some confidence that the receivers lack of built in / on board memory is the root cause of the problem, from my point of view I can only really offer guesswork as to how to overcome it and why PluginSkinMover seems to initiate a boot loop whenever it's used, in an attempt to offer ideas / suggestions and better understand the workings of these things i'd like to ask the following:

1. What type formatting should be used on the (Kingston) 16GB USB memory stick that I am using ?

2. Is it worth trying another / different USB memory stick ?

3. Are there any other plugins / addons besides PluginSkinmover, for example, like FlashExpander that would run on my DM800 HD SE with this image installed ?.

4. Is it worth installing PluginSkinMover and selecting the Internal HDD that is installed when choosing the destination location for the plugins to be moved to ?.

5. Is there any way of setting the USB memory stick up so that any plugins / addons would automatically be installed onto the USB and therefore not need to be moved to it after installation ?.

Apologies for so many questions, your help and advice is much appreciated.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Thank you Master G for your continued help and assistance.

I have re-flashed the image and re-scanned the tuner and have viewable channels.

I have DCC installed on my computer and can comunicate with the receiver.

Would following the directions you have given me be the next step before I do anything else ?.

As I am not very familiar with Telent commands / usage, would you be able to give me a little more detailed description of the paths and input of the commands that you have recommended.

Also, would it still be advisable to install PluginSkinMover and use it just to move any plugins that I might want to install onto the USB memory stick ?.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Well wouldn't you know it, it's me again Master G.

I've moved everything that came pre-installed / was listed in the PluginSkinMover onto the 16GB Mini USB memory stick and restarted the receiver which has now gone into a boot loop.

Please would you be able to advise as to my next step.

In all honesty, in the short time that I've been using / trying to use / trying to set this image up, it's beginning to wear me down as it just seems to be one problem after another.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Good morning Master G.

I have now re-flashed the image, re-scanned the tuner and installed PluginSkinMover.

As the Linuxsat Panel is quite a large file (9,109 KB) and the DM800 HD SE does not come with a large amount of on board memory, as a next step would it be advisable to move all of the various plugins like Auto Timer / EPGImport / MediaScanner / OpenWebif, etc that are shown on PluginSkinMover onto the 16GB micro USB memory stick before I attempt to install Linuxsat Panel and Lraizers Autobouquets ?.

In other words, are there any of the plugins that came with the image and are listed on PluginSkinMover that are better left within the recievers memory ?.

I only ask as I wouldn't want to move something that might slow the box down or have some detrimental effect.

Your help and advice is, and has been very much appreciated.

Thank you and regards, the Soulman.

Hi again Master G.

I have been looking for a solution to my problem mentioned above and have discovered the the PluginSkinMover on Linux-sat-support, do you think that this would be the easiest way to solve my problem ?.

As there is now no memory space left on the receiver I was thinking that I would re-flash the image from the beginning, reconfigure and scan the tuner and then install PluginSkinMover before anything else like Linuxsat Panel or Lraizers Autobouquets so I could then move any Plugins onto the USB memory stick.

Please advise if this would be a suitable course of action.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.

Hi Master G.

I have attempted to install Linuxsat Panel but it does not appear to have installed correctly.

I think it may be due to shortage of memory space because whilst the Linuxsat Panel was installing there were a few mentions of "Lack of memory space".

The Linuxsat Panel is listed in Plugins but when you try to use it, the different options are shown in text but there are no icons shown.

You can select each of the options like softcams / CCcam for example and again it will show the different softcams listed but you cannot then scroll up / down through the list to select any of them for installation.

If as I suspect this is a memory problem, I have a 16GB USB memory stick that I can use to expand the receivers memory and hopefully overcome this particular problem.

I have previously used this USB memory stick and "Flash Expander" Plugin on another image but as I am not yet familiar with this image and its settings I thougth it would be wise to ask your advice beforehand.

If you would be so kind as to instruct me how to set this USB memory stick up as extra memory for the reciever to use I would be very grateful.

Thank you and regards, The Soulman.
