    Wetek play 1 is Arm based receiver not Mips and only runs Oscam. You cannot use cccam or mgcamd they simply do not work on the wetek play no matter which version of E2, Android or Libreelec you use. Oscam will work with nline or cline just look for Cccam to oscam converter and read up on how to configure Oscam

    Only other thing I can think of trying is to delete kodi folder from hdd and uninstalling kodi followed by running filesystem check on hdd to rule out any bad sectors. Then reinstall kodi again and then ftp the folder I have sent to hdd and overwrite any folder the install creates. Having a look around some of the other forums I have come across a few people who are having same issue with the 4k and there seems to be no definitive answer. People who seem to have most success are those who have installed just after a clean flash with no settings backup. Even then there is no guarantee it will work for all

    Will not let me upload just folder have now attached a zip file for you to try and extract to your desktop before sending to boxkodi.zip . Inside you should have kodi folder with multiple folders inside. If this does the same as the other file I uploaded just I will set up a dropbox link or mega link and upload folder there

    Have attached a tar.gz file once you unzip it you can ftp the kodi folder inside to your hdd. Once on hdd rename folder from kodi to .kodi I had to rename it to make it visible when you open the .gz. Please bear in mind this is from a Mips based box and I don't know what will happen if you install it on your arm box.. May be worth mentioning Kodi only installs if your hdd is mounted as media/hdd it doesn't install if mounted as dev/sda or any other format as far as I can tell

    My boxes are now all mips based and not arm based like the solo 4k you are using. Don't know if the kodi folder on mine would create more problems or corruption of your vu+ . If someone can definetly say for sure that a mips based kodi install will not ruin an arm based box I will quite happily send it to you. I really don't know the full workings of the kodi found in the feeds and whether it is box specific, I would not want to be complicit in the act of killing your box with a file not designed for it.

    Kodi can be hit and miss on E2 boxes as you will know also it has so many folders and files it can be a pain to get rid of. Normally uninstalling kodi followed by removing the hidden files on your HDD will sort it out. Once I had to reflash with new clean image no settings or backups, and reformat and initialise the hdd to get rid of it completely. Then I made Kodi the first extension installed followed by setting up the rest from scratch which got things working as they should, a right PIA and more trouble than it is worth. I have moved more towards IPTV player on the E2 boxes and Kodi on the Nvidia shield. Even a cheap android box will run kodi as well as an E2 box.

    On latest Atv versions full kodi is available in extensions, once installed it creates a hidden folder called .kodi on your hdd. However if you have previously attempted to install kodi/xbmc you would have to find the hidden .kodi folder those attempts would have created on your hdd and remove it prior to attempting to install kodi again. It is easy to find with dream explorer or with filezilla as long as you have set filezilla to force showing hidden files under the server tab in filezillas settings.

    Latest version is 8.01 I think, runs ok on mine. Just need fast sdcard class 10 formatted as fat 32, download the img.gz file for wetek play from libreelec site, extract it and burn to your sdcard. For burning I use free program called Etcher it is lightweight runs on linux windows etc and is easy to use and I have never had a failed burn using it

    If you are running android on your box Wetek stopped updating the play 1 android side months ago android version 4.2.2 was the last I think. Kodi 17 requires much newer version of android than the Wetek runs. I would run SPMC it performs better and is at version 16.6 as far as I know. Downside is the launcher for kodi on the custom bar will not launch SPMC so just add spmc to home screen. If you want to use kodi 17 download libreelec for wetek play sdcard version and run from card.

    Did you get the hidden .kodi folder on hdd/usb you can find it by force showing hidden files in filezilla. I had same issue with crashes on edision osmega and had to telnet in and run opkg update followed by opkg install python-pkgutil to stop crashes and finally opkg install python-profile to fix skin errors. I don't have a vu receiver don't know what architecture it uses so you would need to check if these commands would be ok with your box

    Plusnet for me as well, had issues with loads of connection dropouts initially but since binning the plusnet supplied modem and router and replacing with unlocked huawei modem and cheap tp link router have had no issues. Long wait time to get through to customer services but they are helpful and sound surprisingly human when you do manage to speak to them. I am on the advertised 40mb down 2mb up plan and actually receive 38 down and 1.9 up which is excellent for my location. Both BT and Sky my previous suppliers at this address got nowhere near the advertised speed and fluctuated like mad. Been with plusnet 18 months now and since the hardware swap 16 months ago have had no downtime.

    I used to have two wetek play 1s and a wetek play2 I now only have one of the play1 devices as I got fed up with nothing working as it should. I am not anywhere near as savvy as MasterG and the others on this forum when it comes to oscam, but I cannot see anything different in your oscam.conf to mine but mine is working, are the file permissions in usr/bin/oscam seen by filezilla as 755, when first installed mine were not . In softcam panel I have no ecm info on fta channels but as soon as I switch to encrypted channel ecm info shows and cam works as it should. The only thing I can suggest would be to go from scratch, only install autobouquets maker and scan channels then install Openatv universal softcam feed which MasterG linked in post 2 of this thread followed by the oscam file from Mach 1 I posted in my last reply. The one good thing about owning a Wetek is if you eventually do get it working you will have learnt a lot and all other boxes will be a doddle to configure.
