    Here is what I found.

    Given up with Windows. It doesnt work at all.

    In Linux I am having a little success though...



    I think this is early/original firmware (1.1).

    From what I read only 1.3+ supports Windows updating, so I must use Linux.

    Any Idea why I cant flash it?

    NCam filled in those values for me from the automatic setting.



    I bought the smargo used off ebay.

    So I guess I need to chnage the firmware on the smargo?


    Are these the files I need?



    EDIT:

    I didnt read what you said properly.

    I'll try with auto disabled and the other values at the default 357

    I have the options all set to ncams defaults.

    Any idea what the values should be?

    If you know I can look into how to change them on the smargo.


    Perhaps this is why my ecm times are higher than I expected?

    Occasionally I get the following error in my Ncam logs

    Code
    2023/10/04 00:50:01 689CFE8F r (reader) sky_uk [videoguard2] Warning: needed try nr 2, next ECM has some delay

    2023/10/04 00:50:01 689CFE8F r (reader) sky_uk [videoguard2] The card is not answering correctly! Restarting reader for safety


    Any idea what might cause this?


    I don't use enigma2.

    I am assuming the bouquets use "localhost"?


    Edit: Yes they seem to use 127.0.0.1 which is the same as localhost

    Ciefp settings:

    Code
    #SERVICE 1:0:19:81:6:85:21:0:0:0:http%3a//127.0.0.1%3a17999/1%3a0%3a19%3a81%3a6%3a85%3aC00000%3a0%3a0%3a0%3a:Sky Sport Top Event HD

    So its pointing to itself instead of the primary box.

    That's assuming this "client mode" isn't some special mode that handles all that.

    If the full stream, or at least all of the audio, video and encryption stuff is included for stream relay to work, are you sure the rest of the data is removed?

    Try running dvbtee like I was, but use one of the links you guys have in your special bouquets for iCAM.


    Code
    curl <iCAM stream relay url> | dvbtee/dvbtee -e -t10 -j


    Also, if you can enable a sat>IP server in e2, then it should be everything. I don't see how a client could work properly if it stripped everything out.

    I wonder why you would need to patch drivers for iCAM on e2?

    On PC we just patch libraries (libdvbcsa ) and software to support the non dvb standard.

    No drivers are touched.

    Doesn't e2 use the same libraries, or an equivalent?
