Which receiver are you using?

Xtrend ET 8000 triple

All fixed... My guy had sent a cline and I thought it was a CWS mgcamd.... All up and running :)

Yeah I bought an xtrend 8000, two satellite, one cable. I will eventually do a dreambox edit, but I'm just using auto bouquet at the moment.
When I set up the cable tuner I just selected virmin as the provider. I remember some time ago there was a specific location frequency setting that should be added but I'm not using that.

Yeah, I have active broadband.

I have made a splitter cable and done a channel search for the tuner. It seems to find all of the virmin channels. I'm not entirely sure if I'm selecting virmin or sly channels when looking at the epg however. I obviously want the HD but the HD will never clear if I'm am trying to tune the sly variants. Using two providers is a whole new game for me and while I feel I have made progress today, I'm still hitting walls.

Actually... Just figured out how to seperate the bouquets... Virmin not working still though

I have been using cccam for a few years with sly but have been given a virmin share using mgcamd. I am having troubles accessing the virmin channels.

I have activated mgcamd and added a mg cfg file to VAR/KEYS along with a mgcamd.list file containing my code.

Trouble is no channels clear still and I cannot have a dual bouquet. Is there a way to differentiate between the two providers?

Thanks

Hello all,
Has anyone used a combo tuner in their Duo to access both satellite and cable TV? Is it possible? I've seen access to cable TV is possible with a share, the same as satellite and HD is still accessible.

Yes! That was the missing ingredient. Had to install the .ipk file and activate. Thanks everyone for your help and time. much appreciated :)

You will have to excuse my limited knowledge.... I thought by adding the .cfg file, that would enable the channels? Have I missed out a step altogether here? I need to install CCcam? I remember adding somthing via the downloads page on the duo when i first bought it but cannot find a CCcam install.

oh FTP is working fine again now as Im running the new image, problems only started when i used a backup from previous image but as pheonix informed me, using a image from a different image breaks the FTP

ok, I have retrieved the .CFG file and reloaded the new VIX image to the box. I scanned for al channels and then connected via FTP and copied the .cfg file to /etc folder. however nothing is showing up in softcam manager and my channels do not work. Am I missing something here?

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the help mate. Ill give that a shot tomorrow as im going to work now. Will post my results :)

I cant access via ftp anymore. The login fails everytime. If I reload the new image, ftp works fine but cccam.cfg is missing. If I restore the backup then the channels work so I can safely say the ccam.cfg is there. But it wont let me into the box via ftp. I need to extract the cccam without ftp or us the dcc check as suggested by Casuela, although im not entirely sure what that is yet.

Im not entirely up to speed with these terms im afraid. I set up the box some time ago with help from a friend and have updated the image once myself previously. however i am by no means an expert. What is the DCC check you refer to?

I was thinking maybe if i reloaded the vix 2.4 image which was on the box previously, would the backup work correctly? all i want is to access the etc folder.

thanks so much for the help.

sorry... i joined this forum some time ago and logged in with existing details. I assumed i had already introduced myself! I will correct that. :)

Hi all,
I updated my vix image today on my VU+duo and did not make a backup. 1st mistake. The update went absolutely fine, or so i thought, but it deleted my CCcam.cfg.... I used a previous backup to restore everything but the backup is not completing fully and it leaves me unable to access the box via ftp to retrive the .cfg file although the channels do become active once again albeit with a white lined box around the screen?!. So my question is basically this; can i create a dump of the cfg from the box to usb or does anyone know why i cannot access the box via ftp after the restore?

Thanks for any help :)
