    Hi. I have 4.8e, 13.0e, 19.2e and 28.2e multi LNB.

    Can anyone give me example of how to decrypt something on one of these satellites please?

    I already have normal card share work but not emu.


    Thanks,

    Hi. I find difficult to understand the cache tutorials.


    Is it possible to get cache from all proxy readers I connect to and do regular requests if no cache is found?


    The cache works great with the settings below but I cant do normal requests anymore.


    Code
    [dvbapi]
    enabled                       = 1
    au                            = 1
    pmt_mode                      = 0
    request_mode                  = 1
    listen_port                   = 9001
    delayer                       = 60
    user                          = tvheadend
    boxtype                       = pc


    Code
    [account]
    user                          = tvheadend
    pwd                           = password
    monlevel                      = 4
    group                         = 1
    max_connections               = 99
    cacheex                       = 1


    Code
    [reader]
    label=Proxy 1
    protocol=cccam
    device=*********,*****
    user=*****
    password=******
    cacheex=1
    dropbadcws=1
    group=1
    ccckeepalive=1


    Is it possible to have both with my setup?


    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hello Thanks for the reply.


    I do not own the server.

    These are just public servers I connect to. Most are OK but some connect to 0 cards.

    I do not do any CAID filtering.


    Here is example server config


    Code
    [reader]
    label=******
    protocol=cccam
    device=******
    user=******
    password=******
    cccversion=2.3.2
    group=1
    ccckeepalive=1


    It could be that these servers are bad, I do not know. I just thought I would ask in case it is a config issue my side.


    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hi guys. This is a bit of a weird one...


    Getting huge ping spikes and occasional packet loss on my network (not internet related). I have narrowed the cause down to OSCAM. Does anyone know why it might cause this issue? I connect to 100's of servers. Could it be the ammount I am connected to? A dodgy server? A reader setting? As soon as I delete most of my proxies and keep only a few known working ones the lag spikes go away.


    This is how I set up the reader/proxies


    Code
    [reader]
    label=A Reader
    protocol=cccam
    device=34.54.67.89,10000
    user=lupo
    password=lamp
    cccversion=2.3.2
    group=1
    ccckeepalive=1
    caid=1841,1850

    Dony worry those credentials I just made up. Let me know if they work though... I get a lottery tickets ASAP!


    Any input is apreciated. I'd really like to find the cause if possible.


    Chris.

    Hi guys. New to satellite.


    I am looking for hardware recomendations. I want a multi LNB static dish setup. I like in the UK and I am interested in astra 2 and hotbird. Id also like any recomendations for other sats I could pick up that can be decrypted either with softcams or sharing and have english speaking shows. I was looking at getting 4 quad LNBs and linking all of the LNBs with a diseqc switch, so 4 feeds (going to a quad PCIe tuner card). I have also seen these unicable LNBs but not sure how they would work with diseqcs and the tuner cards and they are much more expensive.


    Any recomendations are apreciated.

    Hi. Seen mention of people dumping keys off their genuine boxes. Why are they doing this? What can be done with them once dumped? Are keys sub specific meaning you have to dump your own?


    Just looking to learn some stuff.

    Hi. I am trying to restart OScam from a bash script. I dont want to autodetect crashes or anything else fancy. At the command prompt I can run...

    Code
    sudo service oscam restart

    And it restarts. But putting this command in my script just closes/crashes it.


    Anyone know how I can restart it properly from a bash script?


    Thanks,

    Chris

    Hi all. Is there a script that can delete dead readers?

    Or maybe someone can guide me in making one. Im am complete novice but have played with basic bash scripts.


    Thanks,

    Chris


    I'm not sure to be honest mate. At the end of the day I'm just trying to save some money. There is a lot of info out there and as well as being confusing, a lot of it is also dated. I always like to learn as much as I can about something tech wise before I go ahead with it so I wouldn't say I'm not interested.


    The first server I used was one that came with a box, that lasted maybe a year before disappearing. I did some googling after that and found other servers, free and paid but they were awful with lots of freezing/downtime. Can you explain what the difference is between the servers I was using and the ones you talk about?


    Thanks for the box suggestion but I'm not ready to buy anything before I understand how exactly I'm going to be descrambling the channels.

    Ahh OK thanks.


    Are there any boxes that act kind of like a server and share the TV over the network/internet and stream it to mobile devices etc?
    Or maybe someone has experience setting up VM and CS with tvheadend?


    Cheers,
    Chris

    Hi guys. I have been out of the cable scene since VM killed off all of the n2 boxes some years ago. I did try card share servers for a little while but I didn't have much luck with those. Just wondering what the latest options are really.


    Any and all advice is welcome.


    Cheers,
    Chris

    Hi guys. I've been out of the cable scene since VM killed all of the dodgy boxes with the new encryption a few years back. I tried card sharing for a bit but the servers were constantly getting shut down. From what I've heard it is now possible to decrypt the signal?


    Just wondering what my options are really. I'd like any good "standard" type box suggestions as well as some more advanced type boxes that would let me set up a cable server with, or similar to TVHeadend.


    Thanks,
    Chris
