    Hi.


    I don't understand exactly. Does the normal softcam feed for OpenATV not work ?


    In my opinion, it should also work in 7.3 or not ? Is there a different OE version ?


    Direct web installation not working? That is, running the original softcam feed installation shell-script from the web:

    Hi.


    The millionth question:   What is different after flashing the firmware ?


    Is there a new version of Enigma2 OpenATV ? Is there a new version of CCCAM softcam? Or what is different ?


    If the new version of Enigma2 is OpenATV or vice versa the CCCAM version has changed, then in both cases a problem can occur.


    I assume that you backed up the CCCAM configuration and then restored it.


    You can also try replacing CCCAM with OSCAM. After that, you will set everything necessary for connecting to the CCCAM server in OSCAM.


    You can also try changing CCCAM to another version. However, it depends on what DVB coding is involved. Unfortunately, most SoftCAMs are very dependent on this and even modular - i.e. for some types of DVB coding, you need a special SoftCAM such as OscamICAM or OscamEMU. I think that even in the case of CCCAM softcam there is already a version to support German ICAMs.

    Hi.


    My python script for converting ".png" picon (image) to ".tpl" format (web-template) can process "oscam.srvid2" but also "oscam.srvid". Just run the ".py" script without arguments to display the help:

    /usr/script/oscam-picons-converter.py


    The shell script ".sh" is intended only for execution directly inside OscamWebif. But you don't have to do it that way. Anyway, it is advisable to modify this ".sh" script according to what arguments you need to use for the converter itself (for the ".py" script).


    Srvid file generators:


    If you want, you can also find ".srvid" or ".srvid2" generators among my scripts. However, they are not reliable. It's basically just a parser of data from websites with databases of satellite transponders (and their channels). However, this is never 100% reliable. So the ".srvid" or ".srvid2" output may not be reliable. Unfortunately. But you can try it if you want :).


    Just on a side note... :


    Also, there is a known problem with TPL-picons for OscamWebif and that is the fact that with a huge number of channels, some ServiceID (SID) match. But that's a problem if the CAID also sometimes coincide. The result is two exactly identical filenames "IC_xxxx_xxxx.tpl" which unfortunately get overwritten (one over the other... because there can only be one). Unfortunately, the names of the ".tpl" files do not contain the whole or at least the final and important service reference code (such as is used, for example, in userbouquet files). Unfortunately, the names of the ".tpl" files are composed only of the CAID + SID code. And that is a very indirect way of determining the correct icon.

    Hi.


    If you want to disable reshare in Oscam, on the CCCAM protocol, it's more complicated. As far as I know, you have to limit the CCCAM protocol to a certain version, but I don't remember which one exactly. Furthermore, reshare can be prevented by setting and activating cascading. But even that, I suspect, can be circumvented in some way.


    For me personally, the best way is to set up multiple methods at the same time. For example, that only 1x login is allowed for a specific user (always only from a maximum of one IP address):

    OSCam/en/Config/oscam.user – Streamboard Wiki


    And also activate cccreshare:

    OSCam/en/Config/oscam.user – Streamboard Wiki

    OSCam/en/Config/oscam.user – Streamboard Wiki

    OSCam/en/Config/oscam.conf – Streamboard Wiki

    OSCam/en/Config/oscam.conf – Streamboard Wiki


    As for cascading, setting it up is a bit more complicated and involves more things (which you also have to set up).

    Of course, some files may not exist at all, because not all files are necessary. For example, only the following files are relevant:


    oscam.server (card readers / proxies)

    oscam.conf (oscam basic configuration + your own server configuration)

    oscam.user (accounts for your oscam... dvbapi is "special" account... but... you need some basic config files either way when you are a novice user)

    Yes... as you can see, the configuration directory is set quite differently... and that's some "pcsc"... I don't know for what reason. As far as I know, pscs is a special version of Oscam, designed to support external USB card readers. As you can see, the configuration folder for Oscam, in your case, is this:

    /etc/tuxbox/config/oscam-pcsc-latest/


    I've already written to you X times... but for the German provider's HD04, you'll probably need an Oscam-Icam and not a standard Oscam. It is best to start a new topic under the Softcams thread. I have no experience with Oscam-Icam (I don't use it). Unfortunately.

    It is possible that the configuration files are located elsewhere. You can find it by going to Oscam Webif and then to the FILES menu, and in the first item ("oscam.version" file), which is actually an extract from the "oscam --help" command, you will also find the location of the configuration files. It often depends on the IPK installer used. Unfortunately, some IPK installers also modify the location of the configuration files.

    1. you can't ask me what to edit there, because I don't know your service provider or your decoding card (I assume HD04 - that is, the German DVB-S provider)... I have already sent you the link twice where you can find everything about Oscam- I'm here


    2. if you practice your own softcam server + softcam clients at the same time, then it is even more complicated in terms of setting... on the softcam server you have to set the so-called sharing... i.e. create a Cccam or Newcamd server... then create users (accounts)... and finally you still have to set up softcam clients


    3. I don't know... but I think that for HD04 you need an Oscam-Icam and not an ordinary Oscam... as I wrote before... if you have 5 softcams in the set-top-box, remove them all... use only one softcam (eg Oscam)


    If you don't have backup configuration files of the original Oscam, then it is very bad and very difficult for you as an inexperienced user.


    You still haven't written anywhere that you want to set up an external source of the softcam server (proxy), or that you own the HD04 decoding card yourself and want to use it in Oscam, in a set-top box.


    By the way, for connecting the HD04 card in your own set-top box via Oscam, I recommend starting a new topic in a sub-thread in the discussion forum - related to Softcams. You've already made a big mess here :) ... sorry.

    Port 83 was probably set in the "oscam.conf" configuration file, after the package was installed, in a specific installer for a specific Oscam. But that doesn't matter at all. You can check it directly in the "oscam.conf" configuration file. You can also access the files via Oscam Webif, in MENU - Files.

    Where can I find the oscan. Conf?

    I already wrote to you that in Ocam-Webif (via web bowser). You enter the MENU "FILES" and there are all your oscam configuration files. You can also edit them directly there.


    Then you don't need to search for them via FTP connection, in your set-top box, in the appropriate folder and edit them with a text editor (notepad++ is very good for this purpose, for example).

    First of all... if you use your own card, use some default setting for HD04 of the German provider. You may also find it on this discussion forum. Try searching more.


    The oscam config should also be on the URL, what I mentioned above in parentheses. Or try this discussion directly:

    I can't advise you, because I don't use the German provider HD04 and I'm not even German.


    Second... if you also use an external connection to external softcam servers, you need data from the server administrator, who dictates the IP address, name, password, protocol for softcam communication, and other important settings.

    The default port is 8888 (predefined in the oscam source code) - i.e. if no other port has been configured by the user. Of course, the port can be changed through the user configuration ("oscam.conf" configuration file).

    Gary1965 :


    If you forgot to save the previous Oscam configuration... now you have to add it yourself. No one will help you with that. You have to know what and how... what IP addresses... what is the password and loginname... what softcam protocol is used there... etc. . If you haven't backed up the previous configuration files (usually stored here: "/etc/tuxbox/config/oscam/oscam.*"), then that's a problem for you as an inexperienced user.


    Usually the Live LOG, which you can also find in Oscam Webif, tells more about the problem.


    Also, you probably need the Oscam-icam version (Everything you need for ICAM - Sky ITALIA, Sky UK & SKY DE - All Enigma2 Images and Receivers) for German satellite DVB-S providers, because there is a new and complicated coding. Or not ?

    Hi.


    He explained it wrong to you :).


    This Oscam, after successfully installed and started in the set-top box, also uses its own web interface (so-called "Webif"). In it, everything necessary related to Oscam can be configured or checked.


    The condition is that you have a connected computer and your set-top box in the same computer local area network (LAN). Then you can connect via a web browser on your PC to this Oscam Webif. Alternatively, you can also use the web browser on your smartphone if it is connected to the LAN network via a WiFi router, but that is more difficult because it has a small screen.


    So... the first thing you will find out is the IP address of your set-top box in the LAN network. This can be found in the MENU of the set-top box, with the help of the RCU, if you enter the network settings.


    You then enter this IP address in the address bar for the HTTP address in the web browser and add a colon and the port, which is usually 8888. For example:

    http://192.168.1.180:8888


    There you can then set all the necessary data (connection via cccam protocol or newcamd protocol, and much more).


    However, it would be best, in my opinion, to access the set-top box via an FTP connection. You need an FTP client (on your PC) for this purpose. In the FTP client, you enter the IP address of your set-top box + the login name will be "root" and then some password (usually this password is empty, but not always).

    When this happens, check the oscam webinteface to see if the server is online. If its not, you have your answer.

    When the server goes offline and oscam is working its an issue with the server and not oscam.

    If you can`t access the webinterface and oscam is not running then you have found another reason why you get that error.

    When I log into my IP address on my box when I go to web interface it sometimes comes up with error can't connect 111. It is strange. On the web interface do I need. To change some settings maybe I don't know

    Hi.


    Which web interface (Webif) exactly do you mean ?


    You mean Webif for Oscam (abbreviated OscamWebif) or Webif for Enigma2 (OpenWebif plugin) ?

    Hi.


    Surely you didn't forget the volume of your display unit ? It can be an LCD monitor for a PC with additional speakers... or the TV receiver itself... etc. .

    Or there could also be a fault in the automatic volume control, in the case of modern TVs, because some also allow automatic control. And then if the HDMI audio input is however loud, the chipset algorithm in the TV tries to regulate the volume in the TV... so then you have to use the RCU intended for the TV and not for the set-top box. Try checking the audio functions in your SmartTV / LCD monitor / etc. . Maybe there is a problem right there.

    I don't know if this will help to create a screenshot in 4K/UHD resolution. The problem may be at the hardware+software system level. Apparently there is no suitable system tool to get 4K/UHD screenshot from new chipsets (from VideoRAM).


    Or maybe everything depends only on the resolution of the so-called "framebuffer" or on the resolution of the Enigma2 GUI (resolution and SKIN type). But even this would basically be an error / BUG, if it is not possible to create a 4K/UHD screenshot while watching a 4K/UHD channel, and if the maximum screenshot size is always determined only by the resolution of the used SKIN (framebuffer).
