    I use Blackhole 3.0.1.F on my Vu Duo2. A few weeks ago I struggled to update Mediaportal 7.5.8 to 7.6.0. After a lot of messing about I managed to get it working. Now I`ve tried to update it to 7.6.1 and 7.6.3 but no matter what I do it will not update. I`ve loaded all the dependencies that`s ever been mentioned. I`ve tried updating and even complete installs of the versions available. I can only get 7.6.0 working. Any ideas to solve this problem would be much appreciated.


    Thanx.

    Thanx for the info esuo2. But because I had messed up my own files trying to configure them to work, I had to reinstall the emu ipk I have, I now have the tandberg channels working. At least I`m assuming they are working because I`m clearing the Arena Sport channels at 39*e.:cheers:

    Is there a list of sats/channels that this setup opens with the emu? I`ve done a search but can`t find anything like a list.


    Thanx.

    Thanx Busman. I will have another go sometime this week.
    Thanx.

    I have finally got oscam and my server working after following the guide pasted here by Busman. The only problem I have now is the pi doesnt seem to see my omnikey cardreader, there is no lights on on the reader. I have added these 2 lines to my server file:


    protocol = pcsc
    device = 0


    but no sign of life.

    Thanx for the info guys. But I`ve given up. I found a similar tutorial which I followed to the letter. I was able to change the password and access the setup using winscp or filezilla but I just cannot get the server going. I`ve been on it all day and I`ve packed in before I launch it out the window.


    Thanx again.

    Thanx Busman, I will give this ago as I`ve tried about 6 times the other method and I get failures at different stages everytime.


    Thanx.

    Only just noticed Busman you sent me to the same method I have been trying. I am now trying with the Jessie lite image. Now one of the failures I have everytime is this:


    Once it reboots then log in as 'pi' and 'raspberry' again
    Enable root password;
    Code:
    sudo passwd root


    Then enter preferred password twice.
    log out as current user.
    Log in as 'root' using your chosen password.


    I change the password to what I want but how do I login as "root" ? I have to use "pi" and "raspberry" to log back in. In the end I stopped trying to use my new password and carried on but maybe this is why I get failures further down the line.

    I currently run a Vu Duo2 small (7 peers) oscam server. I would like to switch it to a Raspberry Pi, as I`m always messing around with my duo2 and annoying my peers. I have a Raspberry Pi 2 and Omnikey cardreader. I have tried the "from scratch"tutorial on here 3 times now, but have run in to issues. First issue was simply trying to change the login password. Ignoring this on another attempt, I had issues trying to compile oscam. This tutorial is from 2012 and says to use Raspbian “wheezy” I only found Jessie. Could this be the reason I`m hitting problems? I did notice I had to put "sudo" before every command line I typed, but even then some commands don`t work. Is there an more recent tutorial for a complete newbie like me when it comes raspberry pi and oscam?


    Thanx for any help given.

    Is anyone still receiving this channel 15.0west? I lost it about a month ago and put it down to me moving my dish higher up the pole it`s mounted on. But today I decided to go and reallign my dish properly again. I`d lost some satellites, but after sorting the dish again, I`ve got them back. However for the life of me I cannot get ESPN Carribean back. I`ve rescanned several times, I`ve updated the satellites xml. But nothing brings it back. The SNR on 15.0 west is coming in the high 70s so I don`t know what else I can do to get it back. Or has it gone altogether?


    Thanx.

    Well I don`t understand whats going on with my setup. As posted earlier, I had lost some satellites and a few channels from others. Today I realligned my dish and got back the missing satellites. However one channel is messing me about. ESPN Carribean at 15*west would not be scanned in. I tried everything to scan it in but it doesn`t appear. Now I always do a backup of my settings and I remembered I still had that channel in my old backup. So I put my old settings back in my duo2 and hey presto it`s back. What is baffling me though,is when I do a new scan of that satellite ESPN won`t appear even though I put in the correct frequency. I`ve updated my satellites xml and I`ve tried manually scanning the frequency along with a full scan but it never appears. Can anyone see what is going on.

    Sorry Prophet m8. I went to test this channel only to find I have lost the digi channels and others. I had to move my dish last month for some building work at my house. I thought I had put it back correctly but I seem to have lost a couple of satellites and a few channels on a lot of the satellites I thought I had alligned properly. Looks like I`ll be sorting the dish at the weekend. So I am unable to test until then.
    Sorry.

    Yesterday I decided to upgrade my image from Blackhole 3.0.1 to Black Hole 3.0.2.F Kodi. I did everything from scratch and have it setup the same as my old image. But I have one major problem. I lose my internet connection when I do a reboot. I always have a static ip, however to get this image connected I have to use DHCP. Once I have connected that way I can then turn off DHCP and set a static ip. Anyone know of a solution to this?

    Problem now solved. Even though I`ve never had to do it before, I added primary dns the same as gateway and network is all ok again.


    Thread can be closed now.
    Thanx.

    I have problem too. It just won't open. I've tried reinstalling it on my Blackhole 3.0.1f image. It installs and shows in plugin menu but doesn't open.
